Yeah, those sheep shaggers really get your goat. Or sheep, even.


Reminds me of an old joke about a Kiwi/welshman/insert-your-favorite-sheep-nation-here taking their driving test:


Instructor: Can you make a U-turn?

Driver: Oh yeah - I can make her eyes bulge.

HmB,you want to try wearing tights: what you said, but all the way up your leg, and you only realise once they've cut off your femoral artery, AND if you try to straighten them rather than taking them off and starting again your irritation will make a hole so you have to throw them away and find a new pair anyway.


Twisted sock? You don't know when you're well off.

At this time of year you want your thermal tights on, at least for daytime. M&S heatgen are good because they're as thin as normal opaque tights but warmer, whereas the traditional thermal ones with wool are too bulky. To complete your winter granny chic look you need a thermal vest under the dress, knee-length boots, socks and a cashmere cardie. Then you should be toasty.

Ahem....

People who say "students" when they really ought to say "pupils", especially if they think it makes them sound more modern, trans-Atlantic and/or like they're "empowering" school children by giving them a more adult-sounding name.

The woman who stepped off the pavement into the path of my bike and said rather accusingly 'no lights'. A bit harsh considering I had four, two at the front and two at the back, even if the battery on the main front one was wearing down. She'd stand a better change of seeing them if she actually looked.

    • Thanks for the replies. I am expecting several personal and official letters that were posted last week and should have arrived by now, including a new bank card. I complained to my MP, Helen Hayes, a few years ago when most people in ED had the same problem.  She took up the issue and things seemed to improve.    I rang Peckham Sorting Office but the call went to the PO call centre - after a 20 minute wait I managed to speak to someone so  I'll see if anything arrives today.
    • Monday I think. Just adds to all the fun and so well timed. Why just have annoyance when misery could be in play? 
    • Anyone know when the road works by the junction of Barry Road/Peckham Rye and outside Harris boys school appeared, got caught up in them late last night, coupled to the Rye Lane works it is making travel cumbersome. 
    • WOW… Money and politics talk… Belair House has been a lost cause for years - surprised it has survived as c long as it has….but, if rumours over the years are true, “foreign money” … Most people these days in the village and surrounding area and let’s face it, either have inherited house, invested for own wealth or bought to be in catchment area for schooling both private or state, left to go abroad and rented, or bought by actors, sold to Russians etc..  Local knowledge years ago what was happening -
