I have just been standing in Tesco, on Croxted Road, in front a two young men who sounded like a pair of complete arses. One of them clearly wanted everyone in the queue to hear what he was talking about:


"When I was talking to Tony Blair yesterday, I was struck by the statesman that he is. He did not lie about Iraq I am sure, he was trying to be paternal, to protect us from the truth with a little harmless spin".


OHMYGOD (I almost inhaled my teeth). I would like to say that I think this young man was joking, I do not. Huguenot would have known what to say...

They looked like two university students who should know better.


What can ever be termed harmless about what has gone on in Iraq? I don't need Tony Blair to protect me from the truth, do you?


I am still suprised at how restrained I was.

    • So your remedy for anyone harming an animal, amongst which I assume you include at least all insects, is, well, to kill an animal. Good and logical call. Hyperbole only gets you so far, you know. 
    • Hello, just wondered if you found anything? I'm also looking for a studio space, perhaps sharing. 
    • From what I have gathered from Bradbury Oak residents  I have spoken with, that at a meeting with RNIB earlier in the year, none of the residents were in favour of new build. There is the implication that rent rises are anticipated to help towards building costs. Rent is currently in the region of £300 pw - as with most sheltered housing (council and Housing Association), Since these rents also include maintenance charges, utility charges - Housing Benefit is only applicable to the actual 'rent element' per flat.
    • At the Dulwich Hill SNT meeting last night we spoke about Met. Engage. Dulwich Hill had signed up 185 households. Scheme  had been trialled in other parts of the country successfully and now the Met. Police are rolling it out, To the end of August, the Met Police had gathered 17,000 registrations which equites to 2% of households.
