@Sevlow : Nice one. Not sure if any one spotted that yet :)
@Ian : They should take over that "cursed" place on Stroud Green next to Tescos (ex Pancake/Asian restaurant)
If you had to choose between iPad 1 or 2, it would be make more sense to pick the latest model.
It's likely that iPad 1 owners would've already purchased a cover.
Also, most iPads being purchased currently would be an iPad 2.

Been burgled once in 10 years too. If it bothers you that much, get a monitored alarm which means the (professional) Burgular knows they have about 8 minutes max to get what they want and get out.
Needless to say, don't leave anything valuable o…

It's not a Doctor's Surgery or a Dentist is it ? It seems like they want to be more like some high brow Art Gallery than a genuine museum that is trying something different. Are the…
A friend of mine, Ciaran Cassidy, who grew up in Stroud green died in Russell Square. I almost lost another friend of mine who was in the carriage where the bomber had been in the same train. He was also the last of my mates to see Ciaran alive.

Which reminds me, 1 night on the 19 going to Islington and outside I saw a guy wielding a Meat Cleaver in a Butchers going for another guy.
Luckily for the other bloke, there was a lot of people in between trying to stop the Cleaver dude. 1 way …
During the 2002 World Cup, we were driving through Newington Green and the streets were filled with 2 large throngs of armed ethnic groups on opposite sides of the road taunting each other. The cops were in the middle trying to stop it from escalati…
The free papers were certainly a great novelty when it first launched but after a while I started craving some proper journalism.

The only thing I can recommend is try and steer clear from Sony Laptops.

This reminds me of an incident where a Crackhead had broke into my Neighbour's place years ago and was last seen running off to the Station for a getaway.
The police were waiting for him at the station but was apparently punched in the face and c…
