Just think of those Wheelie Bins not being emptied over Christmas, the silence of the missing Collectors Lorry and the noise of hobnail boots, just the tap tap tap of the computer, perhaps it might lull you to sleep just this once.

I was interested in the Electric Chair it would certainly help me getting around, I phoned up to ask if it had been used latly he said it was not used for years, I said has it got a seat belt? He said No but its got two ankle straps and two wrist straps. and a heated Helmet. I had never heard of this modle So I am trying getting a lift there to see it, the place is in Wandsworth, he said go down the side of the school.

Thank you dazie for your offer, but yesterday I had to take the Wheelie bin out to the footpath, I had the support of it over the solid ice to get it out there, but none to get bsck, I noticed the milkman had left six bottles of milk to get me over Christmas, I could only take three bottles at a time so I held those to my chest, then I went down with a bump on my back, I have dificulty in getting up any time but here I just could not get a grip esch time I tried my feet just slipped, the Bin men saw me and got me up, they said I looked like a tortiose on its back, I had to search for my glasses, I had cut the tips of two fingers, the milk had not broken open. I managed to get back to the house. I left it till later before going out to get the other milk and the bin back in, I noticed that where I had fallen had left a deiced patch so I must have been there some time. I had lost my cap so my bald head got really cold, I had an early night.

Did you not sprinkle some salt where you have to walk? I slipped on to my arse three times before this occured to me. If you do need a lift or some salt i am round the corner :)

Some/many of us will not have MS Publisher so cannot see your card.


It looks as if it may have contained a TIFF image. If so, can you post just the image file (.tif or whatever) without wrapping it up in a Publisher page?

Umm - I am also a golf widow. That can't be fair. Although to be fair to the husband, he has been a complete star for the last 10 days since our 3rd baby (a boy, after 2 girls) was born and has become a full time housewife (with a bit of EDF in between times). We had a very rocky ride for a while and it all got quite scary.


I know this is not the place for sentimental comments but it's Christmas and I just want to say that I love him to bits and can't believe how well he has coped with everything that has been thrown him. (And I'll leave it to someone else to guess his identify!)


(and incidentally, it will be the baby, not the bin men, waking me up from now on!).

      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.

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By beansprout · Posted

      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.
