He's busy, as he's just opened a cat acupuncture centre.


Cats are returned to their owners with hot pokers sticking out of their paws.

Next you'll be telling us there's no Father Christmas!..

Scientist refutes claim that letting your cat sleep in a magnetic bed has side effects...

I'd place good money to suggest the hot poker would not sticking out of their paws, but more likely sticking out of somewhere else.

DM I remember some great posts from you back in the day. How time has flown! Are you satisfied with the level of gentrification that's taken place locally?


JL I have taken advantage of this freebie and I can tell you now I was more concerned with the idea of pushing a trolley around filled with goods whilst juggling a hot drink than I was about the standard of people shopping in store.


Louisa.

Louisa darling, I will not admit to doing my own supermarket shopping on a public forum, otherwise how am I to showcase my staff? The next thing you know I would be expected to collect my own children from school and blow dry my own hair... Actually, I may rethink staff access to my credit cards for the New Year, in case they lose the run of themselves, this last year has been a complete shocker (dabs tear from eye).


I feel that Waitrose should provide cup holders on their trolleys, don't you? The aupair is costing me a fortune in fresh coffee and if she can get her hit for free at the super marche, all the better I say! When will this damn recession ever end (pokes aupair on the head with keys from Audi Q7).


Sweet North Londoner! I have been spending quite a lot if time reflecting over the last year, re-evaluating my relationships. Where is a girl to look for role models? The behaviour of Paul Hollywood has totally destroyed the joy if bread baking for me (OK, vicariously via my house keeper) - what a cad (blows nose loudly), that man deserves a close encounter with my Kitchen Aid dough hook! And now that the scales have fallen from my eyes and I have finally seen Nigella in her true light - KFC? OHMYGOD! I have been so naive (wails and shakes fist at sky)!


When I think of the money I have spent on Manuka honey, kaffir lime leaves and speciality Italian 00 flour...


No doubt Jah Lush will uncover some connection between Iceland's chicken Tikka lasagne and Kate Middleton and then I shall require a month in The Priory!


If feel so at home on Lordship lane now, I am quite simply, no longer that unusual. Am I? 😱

    • EVs don't have to be huge, nor do ICE vechicles, but sadly many owners and drivers do choose heavy vehicles, egged on no doubt by manufacturers, influencers and the like, and a misguided view on road safety. As regards to 'safer' vehicles, the increase in weight goes back decades and is not a sudden thing.  Again 'safer' vehicles do not need to be huge. 
    • EVs don't have to be huge. I used to work for Th!nk in Norway. We put the battery under the seat & had a 2 + 2. It was also 98% recyclable & the first car that could communicate to with a phone. Sadly went into receivership in 2012. Note that we were developing a battery with Tesla in the early days but they pulled out as they didn't have the funding. Musk wasn't as much of an upstart in those days but we still thought he was a *fill this space with your own version* Crumple zones also don't have to be that big either, there are several small cars that meet the Euro N Cap rating. There is more danger in larger cars for pedestrian impact as they can damage vital organs or head injuries due to the height of the impact.
    • Hi all, We have some last-minute availability coming up in the next 1–2 months, as one of our larger projects has experienced unexpected delays. We came across this recommendation thread, which dates back to around 2011/12 and doesn’t seem to be easily searchable on the forum anymore, so we thought we’d add to it to keep it active and hopefully stop it from disappearing again.   Thanks very much, Atanas Big Small Building Solutions 07809 776638 https://www.bigsmallbuildingsolutions.co.uk/  
    • I've had the strangest PO email about my parcel. To quote 'We've received a request not to deliver mail to the property your item is addressed to today' Who from? Who would request such a thing!
