Don't get me started.

You don't live up on the hill though you live near New Cross. I'm closer to Hilly Fields in Brockley than I am to New Cross. ...by about 30 seconds

Irony bypass. Lewisham is a wankhole nee offence Meenzer, when I used to stay in Lewisham I always thought people were surviving not living, the biggest shock is a shooting there has made the news. Gangland central. Wank chippies, wank chinkies, wank pubs, mugs paradise. You're not wrong like, I've been trying to convince Meenzer to move somewhere a little nicer, like, say, Syria... You've never even been here, you cheeky fucker. At least Stevie knows whereof he speaks, although the side of Lewisham he's talking about (and the central bit) is loads rougher than up here on the hill. It's all yummy mummies and young professionals and cupcake shops around here nowadays (well, and the occasional brothel murder).

Well, that and the rumblings are that it was a crazy guy rather than gang affiliated. Also it's cold. Rioters are like mushrooms, they like it warm and dark. Racist

Aye, I was about to check Twitter and all

Dahn Catford innit. No more sirens up this end of the borough than usual, but it could get tasty.

Bloody hell, that's a blast from the past. We used to go there after an afternoon perusing second-hand bookshops. I had a fucking thrilling childhood. honestly you felt the urge to post that jeeez Everyone's a critic.

Cats as fonts.

I was at her/their Shepherd's Bush Empire gig on Wednesday night. I'd love to say it was shit but it was bloody fantastic. Sorry. Saw them supporting The Civil Wars last year. They're lurvely.

I assure you we wouldn't let him in the club with dress sense like that.

IKEA Gateshead opened in 1992.

Homework for tonight Cheers. If it keeps you away from the biscuit tin it's all good.

87 that wasn't it? don't recall seeing that final for some reason Would've been 87-ish, aye. Recently retro-Rambled here, as it happens: http://www.thefootballramble.com/blog/entry/retro-ramble-fc-porto-2-bayern-munich-1-25th-may-1987

Three Luke Bryan songs?! Good heavens. Well, since that part of your playlist needs fleshing out to keep pace with the above recommendations, I've consulted my even-more-country better half and he suggests you check out Billy Currington, "Flashlight" by Chris Young, "The More I Drink" by Blake Shelton, most of Kenny Chesney's back catalogue, Jason Aldean's "Big Green Tractor", David Nail, Brad Paisley, and countless others. And I'll chuck in "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw, Jamey Johnson's "In Color", "She Won't Be Lonely Long" by Clay Walker, Craig Morgan's "This Ain't Nothin'" and the whole of Keith Urban's greatest hits for good measure. Also Trace Adkins' "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk", just because it's every bit as awful as it sounds. Should all be YouTube-/Spotify-able if you want a taster.

Does this mean that I'm not a dick now, just young at heart? Either way, "can" wasn't giving you permission.

Bloody hell, that's a blast from the past. We used to go there after an afternoon perusing second-hand bookshops. I had a fucking thrilling childhood.

A mate of mine lost his mum when she was 48; she'd had an asthma attack, it was severe enough for her to be taken to hospital, she fell unconscious and just never woke up. It was awful because it came right out of left-field. Ever since then I've really tried harder to spend time with my folks. I really appreciate what they've done for me and I have to admit that I didn't when I was younger. I think that last part's pretty common to be honest. I had all kinds of strife with my dad when I was a young 'un because he was always away on work and never seemed to be around for us. Now that I'm a working man myself I see he was just trying to do the best for his family, and that's a tough balance to strike. And it's not that I wasn't aware of mortality because a good mate lost his mum, in similarly unexpected circumstances to your mate as it happens (that sort of thing seems to be depressingly commonplace), but you can be a right dick when you're young. Nowt to do about it except make up for it later on really.

Tell you what, with some of the stuff the lovely people on here have had to go through recently, the mood I'm in is one of making sure I get up and see my family more often from now on and taking nowt for granted.

That's pretty much how I learned it from Madhur. Couple of shards of cinnamon too, then cook it as slooooowly as your hob will allow. EDIT: And warn your guests about the risk of biting into a rogue cardamom pod.
