Yes Narnia I would and I do - I mean I don't flounce round in a ballgown or anything but I'm not really an old T-shirt and leggins kind of girl so, yes I do.

Definitely. But I'd still wear nice shoes.

If I'm on my own I often put on my coolest clothes, open a bottle of whiskey, set up a mirror on the other side of the table and have a mutual appreciation night in with myself.




Its never long before a fight breaks out. The mirror always ends up worse off and I usually get away with a couple of scratches. I used to box you know...

I'm with Giggirl on this one I'm afraid Narnia. I am always dressed to a certain standard, even when I'm alone and not doing much except hanging out with the babies. I always have matching underwear, makeup, jewellery, a nice handbag, and 9 times out of 10 I'm in heels.


It's something you either get or you don't.

Hmmmm I've just reread my post and it didn't quite come across as I intended! I am actually fully dressed at all times, you understand, I was just poiting out the minimum standards required on any given day. And I will have to respectfully decline your invitation, Mr Dogger.


Flipping cheek.

On a quiet night in Brendan once had a fight with a picture of dorian grey - just because he looked younger. Wife came home and threw the book at him.

Not that dangerously Citizen - it's not original '70s which would be worth ?????? and if I owned one I would be afraid to even breathe on it. Ossie's label has been up and running again for the last few years reproducing his classics at affordable prices. That's great for those who admire the man's talent but it's a shame that Ossie died in a council flat without a penny to his name.

Thank you for asking Karrie, but it's been a bit of a disaster really. A wierd allergic reaction meant that although my whites were whiter than the whitest thing, my eyelids puffed up, resulting in me having to squint to see anything at all. Not a particularly attractive sight.


I didn't fare any better with the extensions. Having purchased said items, I soon realised that sticking them on is not so easy, especially with my puffed-up, swollen lids. At the crucial eye-catching moment, whenever I started to blink furiously to draw attention to their impressive length, they started to droop.


As you can imagine, the vision of me blinking and squinting with my eyelashes drooping did not solicit the sort of reaction I had hoped for.


What a palarva.

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
