  1. Keef has had a couple of threads on here too now that I think about it
  2. 6 music had more than 2 million listeners for the first time this week Pretty impressive turnaround
  3. "bloody clique" Goth band name maybe?
  4. "Again with the caveat that we don't know the full story" good point well made

    yup If I actually reread my posts before posting on a phone they might make more sense Main Boo Radley is what I meant... It was probably more than 4 or 5 years ago no I think about it checks.. July 2008. Not too far off
  6. "For what it's worth, it looks to me like some employees will be better off," Isn't that the crux of labour management tho? It's behind the bus strike today - by fracturing the service, you create haves and have nots you can play off against each other If people are doing the same job, then any reason for disparity in pay should be reasons like length of service or maybe performance*, rather than "we created 5 bus companies and your one doesn't pay as much as the other, sorry" * although with bus drivers, any underperformers I don't want driving any bus!
  7. if the road without accidents becomes a 20mph zone it could be as part of a widespread change to avoid this stated confusion some peolpe have checking if it's a 30 or a 20 zone?
  8. Louisa has had at least one
  9. of for sure RPC - I did read it and liked what I read, and have also said on this thread I'm not one to go off signing petitions on some unknown say so That said, others involved have posted since and I'm trying to asess where the truth actually is - at face value, the DPG statement gives no need for anyone to worry, but that's clearly not working Also, it's when people started to say "ah hush, even if you have to do overtime and your conditions/wages are being reduced, stop complaining" (I paraphrase) that I posted this morning TLDR - if DPG telling whole story, sounds like everyone's a winner. But are they?
  10. But it's no world I want to live in that doesn't have places like DPG Talking about essential public services in this context is just distraction. This small organisation is undertaking a necessary restructure. So who is taking the haircut? Is it just the plebs at the bottom? Regardless of the nature of the organisation, that appears to be the nub of the problem and is pervasive across all of society

    Main boo Easley played a gig on East dulwich grove 4 or 5 years ago
  12. Mrben and RPC Am I right in thinking neither of you is on a zero hour contract? Seems a bit punch downy to have a go at low paid workers like that. None of us on here "work down the mines". Doesn't stop us complaining about a whole host of stuff.

    Was never a fan of the Jam, despite many mates at the time being well into them Unusually, but not uniquely, I quite like a lot of the Style Council stuff Solo ? Liked the Uh Huh Oh Yeah single early on and then loathed pretty much everything bar his most recent albums which are at least interesting Never liked him in interviews ? he appears to have softened ever so slightly of late and realised how uptight he has always been. But it?s only marginal As for all the other men being named as self-satisifed on the thread: a) Again? b) Why do it in this thread? c) People you don?t like not same as self-satisfied and smug ? I would go farther and say many of those named are riddled with lack of security hence the need for public approval
  14. Won't work with wii And won't work with Sky remote on consoles. You have to use console controller. But that's ok
  15. don't think I was allowed at the time? Might be wrong on that... But it was certainly other halfs preference that I go home as well
  16. You could always try and meet him like I did for the first time After the birth of your first child and getting kicked out after visiting hours at Kings, order a stiff whiskey in the Bishop, and prepare to contemplate the big moments in life, past present and future Wait for a stranger to approach and ask "are you SeanMacGabhann, I'm DulwichFox" I wasn't expecting that to be honest.... Pleasant chat tho...
  17. just go to next curry night and you will wonder no longer
  18. il Mirto more likely to move because of space/rent/rates issues I would have thought Anyone been in recently - does it seem as busy/less busy?
  19. Do you have a tablet? Much more convenient to stream to one of those and position anywhere in the other room (unless you need a mega screen No wires, no ariels, no holes
  20. is it 100% clear that 19 staff are being made redundant? "All employees taken on under the new contracts will receive the London Living Wage and be guaranteed regular salaries based on a set number of employment hours each year, with full Gallery benefits." doesn't sound like no employment rights? I might be wrong tho.. I just don't see it in B&W yet and I'm inherently suspicious of getting my facts from petition sites
  21. marlwood - did the post from the gallery earlier today not help at all?
  22. "So why is this line so much worse than others? Has it been cursed by black magic?" It's obvious surely - this line runs through Farringdon which has had a SHEDLOAD of work done to the whole area over many years. Looks like that work has taken a toll and the flooding in that area is having knock on effects through the line It's hardly black magic
  23. "In a nutshell" well, there you have it

    App!!!

    primarily it would stop all the scrolling and shunting around and reformat the text to fit your screen better Much forum software plugs into apps like tapatalk to do this kind of thing already, but the software this forum runs on (phorum) doesn't cater for that functionality
