sanity girl - sadly not, I may have managed to stay awake otherwise :)


It was likely finance-related, guaranteed to send me to zzzzzz - or make me laugh if we're playing management-buzzword bingo.

This picture from yesterday's Standard in a piece about motorbike track days. He's going to have to go a lot faster, or indeed just move and take his bike off the stand, if he wants to get his knee down...

"Controversial BrewDog has previously been criticised for 32% and 41% strength beers."

Holy cr*p, changes the whole 'I'll just pop in for one pint' a bit....hmmmmm


Those bottles are so wrong, but so funny.

It's not a good week for animals. Try this.

I find it rather shocking an not what you expect from the Torygraph. This is my favourite bit.


A spokesman for English Heritage said: "This was a very rare incident".


I don't want to be too controversial here, but I'm thinking the dog was asking for it. What do you think?

    • It is being advertised on a banner outside Dulwich Park.
    • From the Dulwich Festival website:   Teddy bears picnic with funfair at Dulwich park on 11th May. Giant Teddy Bears’ Picnic - Dulwich Festival   Goose Green fair is on 18th May. Goose Green Fair - Dulwich Festival   But no sign of the usual Dulwich Park Fair this year!        
    • And so an update, a message saying I had a telephone appt which they then changed to a double to deal with two issues at once. From originally booking to the appt has been four weeks, so disappointed, but appt booked in. 
    • Yes, it wasn't exactly Lewes, he lived in a tiny place near Ditchling Beacon while he was running Hoopers  (maybe  he moved to Lewes after Hoopers closed?) Near enough Lewes, though! I can't remember what the place was called, or even if it had a name, there were only a few houses. Which was very weird, because I lived in Ditchling for a time many many moons ago, and I drove up the  tiny road which passed near  those houses every day on my way to work in  Stanmer Park (at that time the local college horticulture department was based there). It was a short cut to the park, and there was a locked gate halfway down the road, which I had a key to. No idea if things have changed now, it was a very long time ago. Very small world indeed. We only found out because  at Jamie's request we put on music in Hoopers for a time (including Wizz Jones), so we got to know him. ETA: Very sorry Lulark (and Admin), this has no relevance at all to your post.
