The world in all its bountiful and varied magnificence triggers something deep in the breast of the young man. The sap rises. The decision is made and he knows then: it will be beautiful and it will be for all time. He will be at first tender, and then loving and then, when the time is right, he will launch himself upon the world and his path will be gilded, his step sure upon the earth, for all shall know him as an expert... in ties.

Therefore being an expert in ties is important. As how else could one analyse the investment potential of a given proposition?


Swiftly he rose through the ranks of Drummcoutts, and surely, as none were so able to detect the extra yield to be gained from highly leveraged mezzanine structures as the young expert in ties. And by 40 our expert in ties had a dessert named after him in the top floor dining room. And the fourth plinth, non-equity partners would jest, was surely his for the taking.

Yes...very funny!

Erm...I suspect you are going to come up with a reasoned explanation for this *sighs, but goes for it*...but an expert in what? Washed and ironed silk ties? Bet there aren't many of those about - apart from maybe me!

    • My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky. 
    • Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks. 
    • Have used Milk and More for years. When the price went up we cancelled a couple of pints but we still have 8 pints a week. If we are expecting family etc we buy from Sainsburys to top up. We kept on with M & M as if weather bad we could order extra stuff from them to save us a trip to Sainsburys Local. Also gives employment to our milkman.
    • Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo
