andy loves US politics. He'd have this whole site devoted to US elections if he could.
seriously.
This website is currently sponsored by gin, tonic and lamb chops! go obama.
167!!
watching the BBC coverage, where they've just commented on the number of people who've had phone calls from democrats/republicans to go and vote. Can you imagine that? Being called by someone on behalf of the labour party or the tories - I think i…
just watched the final episode of wire season 4. I love the Wire!!!
Question for the crowd though, do we have pockets of awfulness comparable to those of east and west Baltimore (wire seasons 1-4, not trying to ruin anything for anyone)? Am I ju…
the one at the hornsey road end of hanley road is good - nice peeps, very friendly. Went for the white fillings though and do get confused about the NHS/private status, although did initially ask to be registered as NHS and they said they had space…

Hello Emine,
There is a canine creche on Tollington Park - it's £2 an hour and they're very nice. I don't know whether they're taking new dogs at the moment but I do know that they only tend to take smaller dogs.
I have a dog but I'm at home most…
I think our street had more burglaries than normal and must have skewed the numbers. couple of houses were being done up and buggers got through the houses and round into back gardens. seems to have gone quiet again now though!
going to throw my hat into the simon pegg side of the ring here - mainly cos his dog likes my dog (my dog is not bothered) and we once had a drunken conversation about the creche. well, monologue on my part really.
anyway, was thinking that if e…
Excellent post Phil!
Although have to say SGR does seem slightly scarier recently - was threatened by a woman I saw stealing from one of the local shops, said she'd wait for me outside after I told the shopkeeper.
But... it was just one person …
@ tosscat - wondered why my mouth was so sore and couldn't enjoy the marmite on french bread experience after the second day! Had never made the connection before - definitely not a beginner. Just stupid. Thank you.
I love French bread and chees…
@simonb - the picture is not sharp and in the second clip you can clearly see pixels.
Sound seems okay - wasn't great to begin with I think.
@ chapter none - thank you. will have a look at that one too!
Afternoon! Did you try that furniture place on the highbury corner roundabout? Well, just off the roundabout, the old Ford garage. It's got lots of Scandinavian style desks. Very funky, some of their stuff. What about some of the shops on Upper …
Apologies, hadn't realised my last post was so looooooooooooooong! You'll be glad to hear that's me done for the day - clearly have not had enough to do.
Been thinking about these recent interactions on Stroudgreen (not just this last one!) and I have come up with a theory.
I think that reading the posts on Stroudgreen is like reading a play or a script for TV.
Many people write posts in the same…
@simonb - the files were saved as a final cut pro file (as my pc doesn't have this I don't know the file letters .???. I then managed to convert it into something Windows movie maker could edit (as needed to add music) using something called MPEGst…
ooh, I thought I heard tawny owls along parkland walk the other day, but as it was the afternoon I ruled it out. It was very overcast though, perhaps they were confused.
Is St Peter in Chains a band? Seriously, is it a real church or am I being r…
Haven't been to SNCS for ages, although I used to think the point of it was the second-hand book shops (are they still there) and Abney Park Cemetry. That's the kind of place I'd like to be buried!
I am pissed off. I put this video on as a counter to the general cynicism that is on every other bloody post now.
Ignoring the Whitney (of whom I am not a fan) I thought it was a lovely thing.
Getting really fed up with everyone having a go at…
I used to go to trampolining lessons at the sobell centre - my mum would take me when I was about 6. Nice to hear they're still going after, oh, some years.
I was scared I'd fall off the trampoline though whilst doing a somersault - not a long-l…
