Cheers for that PGC.

The next time I play pretend rugby with my made up 15, (named the 'Roaring Boys', the other non-existent 14 weren't keen, but I had the sham casting vote) I'll be sure and certain to visit a load of old cobblers shop and pretend to purchase a tin of saddle soap.

Actually bollocks to all that I'll pretend to nick it and the imaginary shopkeeper can run after me while I show him a clean pair of heels. In my mind the heels are attached to a pair of deep purple Church's brogues. But there I go being fanciful.

Any way where was I? Oh, the imaginary shopkeeper chases me for a few hundred yards, but I outrun him (yea right) and ends up shaking his fist ineffectually at my rapidly disappearing back (yea f@cking right)

Any way I get home all exhausted and that, and what's waiting on the doorstep for me?

Only the new Beatles remastered box set, autographed by all four of the Beatles.

Don't know how they manage it, but I'm glad that they do.

Love Me Do? Not something I'd admit to in mixed company.

Help? I'll have all I can get thanks.

Ticket To Ride? Uncanny, it's like they knew the Oyster card was going to happen.Gives me goosebumps.

Don't you know LB a sense of humour will not get a man anywhere with a girl. A girlfriend/wife is the only person in a man's life who does not find him funny.

That's my experience anyway - these women train themselves to roll their eyes rather than laugh - they get so good at it that it becomes an automatic response to even the funniest things. Its an amazing skill. My wife is really good at it.

Libby, I tip my hat and waggle a glass in your general direction for one of the finest pieces of sarcasm it's been my pleasure to receive.

Skol!

And when someone close to you says "That's funny" accompanied by a tight-lipped smile, where once there was a thrown-back-headed throaty 'come to bed' sort of laugh, it just makes you want to go dancing in traffic, doesn't it?

Or something or other.

Let's see now, soon BBW will be flirting with LibertyFlush and they would be engaged in acts of mutual ...er... admiration. I just wish that this young man would confine his fantasies to the privacy of his top bunk from now on. The musings of an adolescent boy are not really for me...
Let's see now, soon D.M will be flirting with the notion that LibertyFlush would be engaged in acts of mutual ...er... admiration. I just wish that this middle aged woman would confine her fantasies to the privacy of her bathroom from now on. The grabby desperation of an old witch are not really for me...

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
