jeeff: haha, there isn't much competition for the crown. papakoti - i didn't have a japanese-style tub. unfortunately the whole building had to share a pair of grungey, frequently broken-down shower stalls. but during my stay in japan i had the chance to try a variety of hot springs and...

in response to sometimes things come back from the past to haunt the future

elaine: yeah, that is what it really means, and it is about getting your suit, presumably including a waistcoat, at a time of rationing - still a bit disappointing it turns out and not as handsome as uniform

in response to Paperboxes

elaine: i forgot about the adbuster thang - glad someone else didn't

in response to Adbusting: Киев Метро

elaine: georgian is a good thing, i am partial to it. when ill i watched a 'reality' show which was set in georgian times allegedly, at a house party, and remarked to my brother that it turns out that separate puddings were a victorian invention, and the georgians had sweet and...

elaine: well, i promised them, and here they are. there is also a very good cafe where you can eat their relatives.

in response to hackney city farm

elaine: peter, you are an optomist. i feel the scaffolding was his golden age and it's all down hill from here, but then i am a pessimist. perhaps it will all be zuper when he is finished, or he will be toten hosen, except in these pages... where he lives!

in response to robot building

Jamie: Yes; and perhaps an interview?

Jamie: here's a taster a crumbling housing association estate. Linx homes yay! It takes THREE blokes in vans to fix a dripping tap. Awesome.

in response to Another Small Town

vz: to loosely translate: опа! = "whoa!", in the sense of "nice!" жопа! = lit. "ass", fig. "WTF" the rest is announcing the opening of a new chain supermarket at such-and-such location.

in response to Adbusting: Киев Метро

Peter: here, "full monty" was only used around the time of that show/film... but you hear it now and then, similar in meaning to "the whole kit n' caboodle" or the "whole hog".

in response to Paperboxes

Peter: ooh i wanna see the seedy underside of horncastle now, yo.

in response to Another Small Town

Jamie: Animals ROCK!

in response to hackney city farm

Jamie: Yes i do. I've painted a deliberately quaint picture of Horncastle with these photos. It's not all gerogian and tudor, but it has to be said that the town centre is remarkably well preserved. There is an ecelectic mix of architecture from the past several hundred years. Take away all...

in response to Another Small Town

Peter: baby animals! arrrrgh! so cute! the little lambs!

in response to hackney city farm

elaine: i like modern made up ones, like someone started 'lilian gish' for pish, and pish is scottish and not london, so that's really mongrelly, and ones with a bit of history like the full monty which never rhymed but is to do with the demob suit you got from (montagu)...

in response to Paperboxes

elaine: there is a big flock of cockatoos in west london, they are really famous, and because they are such a big gang the locals don't get to peck them to death or whatever, i have seen them, but they don't come over this way

elaine: you got it. i was going to go in and ask the guy if he had done it as a joke, but i decided he hadn't and wouldn't understand the question or had heard it a hundred times and would not think it was funny, more like

Peter: yeah, im pretty sure no one fro m"the view" was in this race ;)

in response to Monster Track 6: NYC Messenger\'s Race

Jamie: I was feeding chips to ducks the other day. They were hot (and trés salty) but they didn't seem to mind. I don't think ducks should eat chips though.

in response to bottles of light

elaine: note to peter: another thing you could consider collecting... cockney rhyming slang, alive and well BTW. as well as being a useful recepticle for jam, nails and goldfish, the jamjar is so much and accepted word for car that i even knew this website and did not have to google...

postcodenerd: Canada uses the same system

in response to Paperboxes

David: No HotdogX. The Vast majority of people in Northern Ireland want it to be part of the United Kingdom.And the D.U.P is by far the largest party now here, with 9 seats at Westminister, and there will be even more next time,because some seats(like South Belfast) will easily be takin...

elaine: thanyou reverend fuzzytank. i will take your daily word into my day with me. plus i like the repeated bit on the side, it makes it work like music

in response to tokyo living

elaine: havn't seen a red squirrel for a while, they are endangered here, after grey sqirrels came over and refused to play nice. i was at a red squirrel reserve once and threw them wild boar pate sandwiches, which i now regret, as it can't be right for squrrels to eat...
