We got a letter through the door about this and have already objected, as we too are likely to be negatively impacted by this development.

Does anyone use emusic? They're offering a two week free trial + 50 free downloads. It's all independent music. Any recommendations on what to download?

Everyone packs on to the 8.35, meaning you can pretty much guarantee getting a seat on the 8.41. 8.56 is a little bit busier, but you can usually get a seat.

What happened to the Book-swap event? Anyone interested in starting it up again?

The music in I72 was good but was played far too loud (sorry if that makes me sound like a codger). It really put me off as you couldn't have a conversation without shouting. Hrumph.

Eurovision has a lot to answer for! Cracking tune though!

If I started walking around dressed like Gok Wan I'd look and feel like a right tool! Saw the signage of this Davina place yesterday and it looks mighty Gaudy, as does that new Curry place (Jaflong?).

I'm afraid to say I sent her packing.

You three have been relegated and will be competing in the Nunhead Forum League next season.

A bit reticent about this series after Tim Kring publicly apologised for it being a bit poo.

Makes for fantastic Telly though.

Was I imagining things or is the "Ice Queen" a Ginger-Traitor? Definitely looked like there were some reddish roots on her close-ups.

They are really surly in there and have a very bad attitude. Last time we went in we asked for a small glass of milk for our 18mnth old and were promptly charged ?1.20 for it. I don't expect hand-outs but I could get 2 pints of milk at the supermarket for that much. No reason to go there now that summer's on its way, I would much prefer to sit outside the Italian deli (they may be a bit grumpy there too, but at least you don't have to look at their faces).

I did understand the reason, thanks anyway.

So.... favourite Stones.... Track: tough call between Gimme Shelter and Moonlight Mile Album: Exile on Main Street, predictable I know, but it is ace.

She's not me. I'm a rugged old seaman who gets on at ED. "Obsessed" may be pushing it a bit, but it's a good and fun easy read, better than other Robert Harris books I've read before (Archangel and Fatherland, both of which had good build ups but crappy endings).

I'm reading Imperium by Robert Harris, a dramatisation of the political life of Cicero. It was made all the more poignant for me this morning as I was reading it on the train whilst stood opposite the actor who played the part of Brutus in the recent TV series "Rome" (don't know his name, sorry Brutus, et tu Birdseye etc).

Seymour Butts! Classic!

When he realised he'd lost his god, and the teacher was behaving like a right arse, do you think the impression was that he was therefore going to blow himself up anyway? Just finished Thousand Splendid Suns too and can heartily recommend it.

That line in Stray Cat Blues about the girl being 13 years old, Grim!
