[Onket]

By the way, did anyone suggest Express Cafe in the market when I was asking about lasagne & chips a few months back?

If not, you lot a fucking useless.

 

[Kanda]

O2 is rubbish in SW2 too. And always has been

Absolutely fine up the Hill.

 

[Badgers]

Who left £10 for me behind the bar in the Albert?

Sorry. Apparently it was a 'young and 'well spoken' man with a parting in his 'hair' who left it.

It must have been me then

Not an Urbanite then.

The dry cleaners on Railton Rd is closing down next week. It's been bought by Mr Khan of curry house fame and he will apparently be reopening it as a dry cleaner. Apart from he doesn't want the current owner (who's retiring after many years) to leave any of the equipment.

I was wearing a syrup.

Maybe he's getting all new shiny equipment

What. And a litre of anti-aging cream plus a plum in your mouth?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

That's how he always looks

Karl? Is he going back to Jamaica? Lovely chap, excellent repair work and unbelieveably cheap.

No, he's staying here but will visit more often he said. It's a great place, and just round the corner from my house. I have been known to pop round there in the outfit I want altered so he can pin it for me.

Car has crashed into a traffic light by Coldharbour Lane/Moorlands Rd. Bad timing as the kids are coming out of school and gathering around. No injuries or casualties are far as I can see.

There's something else going on by the Gresham Road turning as well, there was a car in the middle of the junction with a cop car by it.

That crashed just as I was coming back on the bus, but unfortunately, despite hearing it and it happening right in front of us, I was totally oblivious as I was busy thinking. It was only when I saw everyone standing up that I realised. Didn't see any casualties and despite people on the bus talking about how it happened, I wasn't listening

Was very lucky though as it was right next to a crossing

That was the other car!

 

[Badgers]

I went out just in a t-shirt today

 

[DietCokeGirl]

And you didn't get arrested?

 

[Badgers]

And you didn't get arrested?

Yes. I am with the police now.

 

[editor]

There's some mighty mean looking storm clouds over Brixton right now.

Yes. I am with the police now.

Are you, like, getting it on?

 

[Badgers]

They told me not to walk the streets for money

In more road accidents my partner and 2 year old got knocked over on their bike. Luckily no one was very hurt as the van was reversing so going slowly. Anyway it was outside the Elm Park Tavern and the barber's shop so lots of people were shouting at the driver.

 

[Orang Utan]

Oh dear! How are they?

 

[nagapie]

Fine. Jamie has a bruise and Adam was unharmed, although he may have learnt some new swear words.

 

[Orang Utan]

I hope they're too distressed. It's fucking scary when something like that happens.

 

[ajdown]

That was the other car!

Some distance apart though? How are they connected?

 

[quimcunx]

I was busy thinking.

Seems unlikely.

(((Adam and Jamie))) Hope they're ok.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Seems unlikely.

What seems unlikely? No casualties?

I didn't see anyone in the car, so I'm assuming they got out
