Where are these people coming from?


One ce upon a time, you could walk down the delightful LL and see proud dads, casual shirt( no tie), maybe a hacking jacket/ Chino combo going on, tan slip on shoes. Very smart but fuctional for a weekend away from the trading desk.


What do we have now ? balding middle aged men with grizzly adams beards, beanies and oozing bullshit.This isnt some kind of ozric tentacles convention you realise - that dubstep you are listening to was meant for someone 20 years younger you know. Them plaid shirts are for loggers and mountain men, not tossers and desk jockeys.


take off the groovy gear daddio, bin it and act your age

Oooh this is like one of those Cosmo quizzes GFs made you do to see if you were sensitive enough back in the 80s


Balding? - Nope

Middle aged? - Apparently

Grizzly Adams Beard? - More unshaven scruffy git

Beany? - Nah

Oozing bullshit? - Always.

Ozric Tentacles? - Centre half for Panathinaikos

Dubstep? - Just dub.

Plaid shirts? - Does that include Ben Shermans?


3-3.5/8 : "You are a sensitive soul who loves nature and any woman would be happy to g-..." Okay who's been fiddling with my Cosmo!?

Balding? - Alas yes, but it started in my 20s and hasn't really progressed that far

Middle aged? - Dunno. Not young anymore, but not sure I'm middle aged yet... (36?)

Grizzly Adams Beard? - "More unshaven scruffy git" What maxxi said.

Beany? - Nah

Oozing bullshit? - Never!!!! *ahem*

Ozric Tentacles? - Remember them from the early 90s. Not my bag then, and probably not my bag now.

Dubstep? - What?

Plaid shirts? - T-Shirts for all occasions.

Balding? - thus far spared, though terrible genes in this regard, so a matter of time

Middle aged? - indubitably

Grizzly Adams Beard? - pretty beardy at the moment, for a stag do (required dress) but it'll be gone the moment the fear recedes

Beany? - sometimes in winter, you know, when its cold.

Oozing bullshit? - self evidently

Ozric Tentacles? - I think i might have a dog eared eat static cd tucked away somewhere

Dubstep? - What? (otta said)

Plaid shirts? - fuck off

My tats started wi Indian ink oan ma shoulder, rest are boozy nights. The ankles due to Edinburgh and a guy called needles.. If Jocky is reading, this was Dalkeith. Nae boather, nae hair just a Barry night oot. Lips done an aw..not mine, pals. Nae stress tattooed intae them.

Chinos and tan slip-ons? Who in their right mind would want to dress like an American tourist? There's a difference between dressing your age and dressing badly. I'm not quite ready for elasticated pants just yet, thanks.


People live until their 80s these days. The idea that chinos are the pants of choice for the last 50 of those years is hideous!

Balding? Thankfully not.

Middle aged? I know a little bit about what's going on in golf, so yes.

Beard? Not really capable; it would be a patchy tramp like job.

Beanie hat? In the winter.

Oozing bullshit? Not from my perspective mate.


OZRIC TENTACLES:)


Don't mind a bit of Skrillex


And I've got a nasty brown Slazenger shirt I sometimes wear at weekends. Was it me?

    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
    • An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators act with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.      
    • In recent consultation on further ED CPZ the majority of respondents were against. Fully appreciate you may not live on a road proposed for CPZ. If you are close to that area it is likely you will be affected by parking displacement if the CPZ goes in. I was just curious what James Barber's position on this is? Perhaps he'll come on here and let us know. He was always really good at visiting the forum.
