Mike Read is a pussy. Gutted he's withdrawn his record. It was ace.

[Berni]

I particularly liked the rhyming of 'referendum' and 'Outer Hendon'

[Classic Jorge]

But then I thought he might fist up my nostril

[Berni]

The place I mean, not the poster. I hear the poster is f**king massive.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[Berni]

Feeling a bit sketchy today. :-/

[Classic Jorge]

[7evens]

I suppose that's a bit of a lyrical challenge in calypso :shrug:

[Mack]

Drinking Australian port atm, (really!) :hide:

[Classic Jorge]

I never really got on with suburbia

[7evens]

[Classic Jorge]

I mean, anywhere between muswell hill or tottenham right the way up to barnet is here-be-dragons for me.

[7evens]

Look out for a young, pre fame Barry Humphries...

Cook and that Beatles music backdrop is genius

[Ashberto]

Although the other day I resolved to one day explore suburbia in search of Art Deco which might save its soul. I gather some of the tube stations look quite good.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I'm home alone tonight. I'm going to get me a mixed kebab...

[Ashberto]

Though that might be a bit harsh on the Edwardian stuff.

[Luis Anaconda]

fairly sure it was on the wrong branch of the Northern Line, but the station struck me as quite impressive. May even have been Brent Cross

[Classic Jorge]

Which is a particular shame, given his deadness

[Luis Anaconda]

I love that line

[Classic Jorge]

Not to my tastes but interesting nonetheless

[Classic Jorge]

You know, that GNER railway architecture stretches all the way up to York.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Trust me, f**k all interesting about it.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

The world, whilst perhaps a little less funny, was undoubtedly a kinder place for his passing.

[Classic Jorge]

[Classic Jorge]

especially over time.

Most funny people are a touch depressive, it may be cliche to say it but it doesn't make it any less true.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I find such behaviour unforgivable.

[Luis Anaconda]

although bizarrely she seemed to gloss over the alcoholism, depression and violence in order to get across what a great hostess she was and how wonderful her dinner parties were

[Luis Anaconda]

[Classic Jorge]

Back in our day we could bunk any manner of barriers, I doubt I paid for 20% of my total underground travel.

Even when I get caught I would give them a fake name.

Though any misguided attempt to get to the shopping centre (or Vauxhall dealership) takes you through here :-(

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Theft seems to me a peculiarly selfish life choice.

[Luis Anaconda]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

However unpleasant a character Churchill may have been, (and that question is in itself somewhat moot), his contribution to important issues such as freedom and liberation from genocide are somewhat more important an issue than a man in a raincoat making you giggle, no?

[Classic Jorge]

Though, strangely enough, tax and the exchequer does.

[Monty91]

Moscow subway system. Or so my Ilford-residing uncle used to tell me.

[Classic Jorge]

[Classic Jorge]

Listen, we're having a nice thread about suburban railway stations here. Must you turn everything into a class war?

[Berni]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

FFS, I only mentioned Peter Cook was a ****er. It's hardly breaking news.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

[7evens]

I remember hearing stories of the jewish cabbie community and paid it no heed until once driving around the back roads of Barkingside and clayhall and noticing a black cab in every third or fourth driveway :hehe:

[Classic Jorge]

Actually, a surprising amount of my heroes are ****ers.

Well, I say surprising

[Ashberto]

not from Brent Cross tube. Some teriffic planning there.

[Snin]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

I wouldn't go back.

[Snin]

[Snin]

off

changed tack and began banging on about her recipes. A decidely weird Cook book if you like

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Cockfosters at least had a cab station.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Then we discovered drugs.

[Classic Jorge]

80quid cab back to fins bury park :-(

[DG (socialist surrender monkey)]

or at least smirking

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

At least make sure it is going in the correct direction, if not final destination.

Damn you Northern Line.
