Can you have a dash of milk? I thought it was alwAys a splash?

How big are those splash of milk jugs?

Does anyone know where you can get one of those pinch of salt measurers/dispensers? I like to follow recipes exactly when I cook so need to have correct amounts of ingredients. I enquired at that shop on LL but they looked befuddled when I asked, but I do like shopping locally if possible.

Oh ok, I probably don't need to worry then. I haven't been in their (small) house or anything like that anyway.

My wife is vegan, soya milk and replacement mayo and all that.

My neighbour down the road has infective rhinitis, coughing occasionally - should I get a test?

Does anyone know what the seasonal arrangements for queueing at WR will be this year?

I also have two cookers - a Rayburn and a Rangemaster. I?ve heard about the tunnel under ED before - apparently it?s a remnant from a previous attempt in the 50s to extend the Northern Line, and that?s why some houses in ED are prone to subsidence.

I must have been subliminally influenced when I was younger.

My wife is on a night shift tonight, so I'm free to go out. I'll be at one of the tables outside - green tweed Hackett blazer and red moleskins.

How do I apply?

Mmm - well I do have my original coal chute / hatch into the cellar restored, which is inlaid on my ORIGINAL refurbished Victorian garden path.

Why bother with a mortgage? All those intrusive questions for assessing affordability. I just pay with cash.

Or Nunhead Village? I think they moved to one of those small semi-detached houses on Barforth Road or Carden Road in Nunhead.

alice Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > But is it double fronted. Technically, yes it is double fronted as I bought the adjoining semi-detached house next door. I gave the elderly neighbours enough money to move to Nunhead, and then put in a doorway in the hallway between the two house, so now it's like one house.

I was wondering if I have the most extended house in ED? I have: full loft conversion with ensuite; dug out/tanked cellar that you can fully stand up in and a toilet there with a macerator (can still get blocked with logs though); bay windows extended; kitchen extended into garden with massive bi-fold sliding doors; passageway/side-return extended into; outside wooden building with heating and gym equipment/office; original stainedglass restored on front door and transom window; and neighbours' gardens annexed. Plus I can park all our cars in the front garden.
