chrisN4 - thank you for coming back. We've missed you.
-
@ andy - you didn't hurt my feelings. You don't agree with my opinion. I don't agree with yours. It's your blog and you can use whatever patronising and sarcsastic tone you want.
-
@andy - my point is that the time for reasoning is over. We've tried reasoning and it doesn't work. And do you really need to be so patronising all the time?
-
@andy - my "way" was to shoot, hang or drown them. We haven't tried that yet so it can't have failed. Your "way" (your desire to work with these kids and find out why they think this way) is not new. Spend millions trying to talk and understand t…

Perhaps I am unthinking. And perhaps I'm an idiot. But I'm sick and tired of efforts to try and help these people, to try and understand where they're coming from and put them on the right track. Your "thinking" hasn't and won't work. Certainly …

We've spent enough over many years trying to understand the "underlying causes". We could blame the parents. We could blame the government. We could blame ourselves. But none of this will change the fact that they are lazy, greedy, violent, igno…

I'm not a spider breed expert, so it might not have been a Tarantula. But it was the best term I could think of to conjur an image of the large, hairy, thick-legged spider I saw on the window ledge. I haven't seen it since. But I have since devel…

Stapleton Hall Road, near the Stroud Green Junction. Currently devouring my Duty Free to try and forget about the hairy monster.

I agree with Brodiej and sympathise with Kreuzkav. Sleep deprivation is bad enough if it's just from a one off neighbouring party. To have to put up with it regularly must be horrendous. Most of us don't have to put up with nightly noise pollutio…
-
I concur with miss annie. Can't comment on the noise issue, but early evening during the week it's a comfortable venue, food was good and owner very friendly.

@Misscara. The point of Emma's post is that they were, mistakenly, going through the check out at 60p. And maybe they still are. 39p cheaper than the 99p shop.
-
I'm no mathmetician but that's 39p more than you currently pay at Tesco.

Methinks Andy writes for the Guardian and is mucho peeved.
-
Several years ago he sat infront of me, with a female friend, on an easyjet flight from Stockholm. He reeked of BO.

Move over, old boy.

Great result. I won the office sweepstake!

Can't believe that Ukraine and Italy are getting so many votes. They were rubbish.
-
It wasn't.
-
I want Finland to win. But they won't.

Try one of those plug in pest repellents. They're supposed to work on ants and they worked on my invasion of fruit flies.

Thank you for all your advice. My preference is to be a first time user of the hat. The Lock and Co website looks very impressive. If I was already an established hat wearer then I'm sure I'd buy from them. However, as a hat virgin I have to be …

That's been my experience of the 153 too. I take the opposite view to Misscara. I've never found it to be quicker than the 4 or 19. Takes you on a rambling journey through streets full of speed bumps and you often can't get a seat.
-
Why not get the 4?
-
Boarded the 19 at precisely 9.30am today. Must have been a while since the previous 19 had left as there were big queues at all the stops - bus full up by the time we got to highbury corner. Traffic was very smooth. Reached Angel station at 9.5…
-
My best route to work (just off St John Street, Clerkenwell Road end) is the 4. But sometimes get the 19 and change at Angel. The good thing about the 19 is that it starts it journey at FP, so you are very likely to get a seat. And the 19 is much…

What does MHP stand for?

As a bench mark, I've flown twice to Cape Town in the past couple of years. First time was with Emirates, via Dubai which cost £500. Last year flew with KLM via Amsterdam and that was about £600. BA currently have a sale on, direct to Cape Town…

The small store up from the Stapleton and next to the butchers willl probably be open on Xmas day. Think it was last year.

Such an eclectic taste.

I also like Lynne Featherstone. "Stop the cuts" is very naive.
