  2. Car crash. I have no words. Holly Willoughby actually looses it. Putting aside that the Katie woman is an insufferable snob and my jaw hit the floor, does anyone agree with her? The "worm" showed 9% for and 91% against. 9% is not insignificant so she has support. Thoughts? BTW, for the forum old timers like myself, I found myself wondering whatever happened to our very own Dulwich Mum?
  3. Yes BB, I was also irritated by the out of context clapping. I put it down to Harry Potter fans who came prepared to clap Daniel Radcliff's every breath. The performances were excellent and I think Daniel Radcliff did a great job, but on the whole it wasn't for me. It was a little too "oyrish". Punchdrunk's Drowned Man is a triumph if you're the sort of person who likes to fall through rabbit-holes. A few people have said things to me like "I'd love to go but I can't find anyone to go with". Doesn't matter - just grab a ticket and go on your own. The Punchdrunk experience is not a shared experience, it's best on your own. So even if you are going with someone be prepared to split up and go off on your own and compare experiences later over a drink. The beauty of Punchdrunk is that no two people have the same experience.

    David Bowie...

    It was great stuff. Usually programmes like that are talking heads with journalists. I couldn't give a stuff what journalists think about anything! This was insightful interviews with musicians and producers and Bowie himself.

    Hey Quids, I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour Drinking milk shakes cold and long. Thanks for the tip. Watched the programme last night. Px
  6. If you aren't sure it's for you then why not try a business lodger who would rent from, say, Sunday night to Friday morning, giving you the weekends to yourself. I think that above all a lodger needs to feel welcome and not just a source of extra revenue.
  7. Thank you for posting the update. I'm very pleased for you.

Bob - you took the words right out of my mouth. I pity the kids that have such sanctimonious parents. Somebody asks a question and she gets shut down. Making somebody else "wrong" so that you can bask in the glory of making yourself "right" is is just another form of ignorance.
  11. I'm improving now I see you can actually make the world map bigger (duh) http://www.geoguessr.com?v=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
  12. I'm genius level high-scorer. Would have been higher if the world map wasn't so vague. My geography teacher would be proud.

    Chris Hadfield; the best thing ever on YouTube. Blown away.
  14. What's a glove got to do with it?
  15. He's OK. He's done with the forum though. I'm sure he has his reasons. Mott the Hoople at the O2 somehow seems wrong. Actually it's wrong for most bands come to think of it.

That doesn't fly today. It's about reconfiguring existing space for modern living.

  18. Olivia Coleman is an utter star. Acts her socks off and makes it look easy.
  19. Guys, it's just good grooming. Women go through life having things waxed and plucked and groomed and creamed and painted and zapped with all sorts of gizmos. It's just maintenance.
  20. Marvellous but you should also post this in the what's on section.
  21. Is this for your spelling thing? My friend runs a care home and she had a special event with her kids and used Hero by Mariah Carey, which was "on message" for her kids.
  22. Look - hot woman applies lipstick. Never not sexy. In real life there is no algebra http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wClNDPkPRvM
  23. Not really Mr Jack. Nail varnish stinks in an enclosed space with no windows open. Genuinely makes me gag. There's the difference. Conversely, if said floozy were to give herself or himself (equal opportunities) a makeover, then that's entertainment.
  24. Someone might touch, move and inspire, or even entertain, without winning any medals for their English.
  25. The technique that I use is to place my left hand directly on top of the keypad. I slide my right hand underneath and find the first two digits automatically, like touch typing. It doesn't matter how close someone is to me, they can't see the numbers being entered. Even if it's 2am in the morning and there is nobody around, you still need to cover your pin in case the machine has been skimmed and there is a camera set up to capture pins.
