That's nothing new though, you only have to look at the history of pretty much any religious group to see that it didn't take long before it was all about money...

Boys, boys, boys, you are so superficial, the lot of you. I love the local churches, and frequent the lot of them. I would hate Father O'Connor to find out I was hanging out with the protestants, so I go to him at St. Thomas Moore, and I love and respect the vicar Diana at St Barnabus - so I am to be found there too.


I worship enough for the lot of you - so worry not, I have covered all the bases, and will get us all into heaven!

Oh my god I've just had a horrible vision of some Deity that's a cross between Mammon, Bacchus, Jade and Chantelle.

Perhaps they can set up the church in a newly converted Magdala where they'll worship by throwing money and alcopos through huge hooped earrings on to an altar made of lard encased in Burberry.


Yeeeesh *shudders*

After the miranets come the miniarets. Is that a foxton's mini that can't be moved because it's had it's tires nicked and been put on bricks while the estate agent was busy selling a ?750,000 broom cupboard as being 'perfect for a professional couple' because the bathroom was the size of a newborn tortoise perchance?


I'll go get some air shall I?

Whilst not disagreeing with you that a lot of the stuff sold at the Northcross Road market is "tat" (most markets though specialize in "tat" outlets - it is part of theri charm), I must rush to defend the quality of the cake(s) sold there. The cheesecake in particular is better than anything sold in local shops, chains or otherwise, and the chocolate cake is to die for.


And the relatively recent arrival of the English Cheese van (Fridays only) is a boon for those of us who suffer vertigo trying to mount the step outside "The Cheeseblock"...

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
