I remember reading a book by David Niven some years back, recounting his days in Hollywod during it's heyday. He recounted a powerful movie mogul who came from eastern europe ( I think) and had a particularly heavy accent. He was often ridiculed by the stars of the day because of this and had a particularly short fuse. One one accasion, Niven recounts, the guy in question rounded on those mocking him and said " You think I know f**k nothing!!! Let me tell you I know f**k all!!!!!!!!!!!"
jacks09 - the US band Devil Driver had 'I could (f-ing) care less' as a slogan on a T shirt. It means that one actually cares to the max as there is scope for one to care less- and I couldn't care less means you do not care at all......Someone I know who really does give a damn wears the T shirt frequently

Surprising how often you hear that one. I confess I sometimes say brightly, 'So they were talking slowly then?'

    • Hey are these two keys with no keyring? I lost them a while back so not sure if they will be the same!
    • Another glowing review for Julian!! I am now referring to Julian as ‘the legend’. I had spent 5 years waiting until I could afford to get some cupboards built in, and I couldn’t be happier. I am often allergic to overbearing advice when it comes to work I have commissioned and am paying for, but I found Julian’s advice so helpful. He offered his opinion about my plans in a very constructive way, and helped me come up with a much better plan. His ideas were better than mine! Not something I usually like to admit. The work was exemplary, and he cleared up beautifully. He was communicative and a pleasure to deal with. I am so delighted with my cupboards and floating shelves. He doesn’t paint them, but I think that is better, as it’s a specialist job, and it means you can either save money and paint them yourself, or get a painter and decorator to paint them properly. He is a brilliant carpenter. The only problem now is that I have so much more hanging space thanks to his advice, that I may not get rid of all the old clothes I can no longer fit into!  Anyway, highly highly recommended if you need fitted carpentry cupboards or shelves, and want to work with someone who cares about the outcome. Thank you so much Julian! 
    • For many years I went to Ken's on NXR.  He was pretty much the only barber  in ED  Now we have more barbers than you could shake a stick at - all the way down from the Plough through to DKH and some are empty of customers - even on the evenings and weekends.  I never ceased to be amazed that they continued to operate despite not having clients and realised that they were probably into money-laundering - just like the sweet shops along Oxford street. I went once to one on LL and certainly wasn't impressed with their. My dear wife has cut my hair ever since. I don't believe in supporting criminals.

    • People are more likely to go back and retrace their route rather than look on the EDF.  If you’re reluctant to and them on a fence or something, perhaps you could put a note with your phone number there
