    Ask Admin

    Dear Admin - please can you tell me how to upload photographs directly into the post. I'm sure this info is on here already but I just can't find it. Maybe send me a link. Thanks in anticipation. px
  10. BBC Electric Proms Anyone? http://www.bbc.co.uk/electricproms/
  11. Mr M - You had the luck of the Irish with the weather for the end of the road! I really pity the poor folk at Bestival last weekend. Have you been to Union Chapel before? It's such a fabulous venue run by really nice people. In previous years it's where Jo Wiley has held her Little Noise acoustic sessions and she's a woman with an enviable address book at her disposal. I hope she does some more this year; I'll post if she does. Are there any headbangers from the forum going to the Metallica gig tonight?
  12. Any Lambchop fans? Two nice gigs at the Union Chapel Church (great venue) in north London. Buy direct here: http://www.wegottickets.com/location/132
  13. If - Telly Savalas
  14. Little Girl/Boy Blue - Janis Joplin
  15. I'm a high heels girl so a big NO to cobbles. Bob - I would pay actual money to see you roller skating over cobbles. Ouch - that's got to hurt.
  16. That's a really sad story Keef and I'm sorry your friend isn't posting any more. Personally I wouldn't correct an individual's grammar (unless I knew them really well) because that is cruel. I see grammatical errors every day in mail-shots and CVs (I kid you not) and it bugs me. It just feels like our language is being eroded. Texting has a lot to answer for. Is it just me or is our vocabulary shrinking? For instance: ?AWESOME?. Every time I hear that I want to smack someone in the face and shout ?get a fekking vocabulary?! Also edited for a spelling mistake. Irony is catching. Edited for a second spelling mistake - oh the shame of it.
  17. You can claim electronically if you want. Here's an email I received. I'm not loading the attachments as you can download them from the website. Dear Potential Class Member: This notification is being sent to you regarding a proposed settlement that has been reached in a class action lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that British Airways Plc and Virgin Atlantic Airways, Ltd. unlawfully conspired to fix prices of fuel surcharges imposed on ?long-haul? passenger fares. Long-haul flights include most flights between the U.K. and non-E.U. destinations, including flights to and from the United States. All flights on Virgin Atlantic qualify as long-haul. Tickets must have been purchased between 11 August 2004 and 23 March 2006. Attached to this email are copies of the court-ordered Notice and a Claim Form that you can file to apply to participate in the Settlement. Members of the Class who file a valid claim will be paid 33.3% of the passenger fuel surcharge they paid on qualifying coupons. Refund payments will range between ?4 and ?20 per passenger per round-trip ticket purchased in the U.K. and between $7 and $34 per passenger per round-trip ticket purchased in the U.S. For more information about the terms of the proposed Settlement, please read the attached legal notice. You may also visit www.airpassengerrefund.co.uk. If you would prefer to file a Claim Form electronically, there is an on-line Claim process available on the website. Please do not reply to this message. We are unable to respond to inquiries in reply to this email. If you wish to contact the Settlement Administrator, you may do so by writing to [email protected]. There is also an information helpline at 0 800 043-0343 (U.K. Free Phone). This e-mail is being sent to potential Class Members as required by the Settlement Agreement and under Order of the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division. This is not a recurring email. Recipients can unsubscribe by clicking on the link below. Sincerely, Settlement Administrator Air Passenger Fuel Surcharge Settlement Fund
  18. I managed to get myself thoroughly depressed there (RA hits a nerve) but it?s OK now, I just self medicated ? I bought a pair of shoes on-line (shallow, moi?).
  19. Actually I'm glad to hear that they don't mention RA in the show because it really does make me instantly tearful. But Piaf did suffer from severe RA and I know she had medication issues. I think it's not so bad if you get RA today because medicine has moved on a lot (I'm not 100% sure of my facts here - it's not something I ever Google because I'm frightened of seeing the pictures). Back in the 70s it was all about Sister Morphene - well who wouldn't have issues with that. Still definitely looking forward to tomorrow though and I'll report back.
  20. Jah - you will not believe this; I was listening to Waiting for the Man only half an hour ago, albeit the David Bowie version All Tomorrow's Parties - Velvet Underground & Nico
  21. David Mc Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Piaf at the Donmar (transferring to the Vaudeville > if you can't get tickets) is impressive. I'm going to see this tomorrow night at the Donmar. To be honest I'm a little scared; my mother died a very slow and painful death from acute rheumatoid arthritis and it's something that I get very tearful about. When I was a child there was morphine next to the margerine in our fridge at home. Edith had the same condition so I think I'll be crying a little tomorrow night.
  22. Is it just me or is the police station on LL the most sinister you've ever seen? I live just behind it so I'm always passing by and my pace always quickens a little because the place is just creepy. A bit like the police station in Racoon City (maybe that's just me). Anyhow - glad your sister came to no harm slummy.
  23. Are they looking/hoping for a confrontation? Why? Boredom? Please explain. Personally, I'm always plugged into my i-Pod so I'm oblivious to everything on the bus (apart from the frequent emergency stops and smelly passengers).
  24. Missionary Man - Eurythmics
  25. Burning Down the House - Talking Heads
