Just listen to the Six O'Clock News on Radio 4 every night. That's THE news. Period.

London's COOLIO. I reckon you could live here for a LIFETIME and still discover new stuff every day. I've lived here for a year and a half now, and I haven't actually been east of Ludgate Circus.:blush: Also I've NEVER BEEN to the Only Pub In London. I think the QUALITY about London I like the...

Is this Groundhog Day? Every time the adverts come on it's 'Who Killed the F*ing Zutons', I'm not buying it on principle.

Where's the option for "all of them at work, generally either the Times/Telegraph/Guardian depending what's got the best front page when not at work, oh, and the Ealing and Acton Gazette"? WELL?

There is currently a "joint operation between Cheshire Police and Scotland Yard" taking place on the M6 near Sandbach *taps nose conspiratorially and goes away again*

Manufacturing has been in decline for ages. Now it's a section of the retail trade that's falling out of fashion. People will still spend their disposable income in Primark, or Starbuck's, or M&S.

Mmmmm, brie. Paneer (Indian cheese) is top, as well.

Warrington and Cheshire are NOT in Greater Manchester. They're in, er, Warrington and Cheshire. The councils in Greater Manchester do get on most of the time and help each other out, but there have been some ALMIGHTY flounces from time to time when two of them disagree. Also, Manchester...

God yes. I work in the same office as her, and recently I ran into her in the BBC bike sheds. In her CYCLING gear :love::love::love::love::love: Susannah Reid is pretty tasty, as is Jenny Scott off the Daily Politics. And I'd do Fiona Bruce. It's a big NO to Kaplinsky and Silverton, though...

Cor -- if anyone objects to that (and they won't, because they're northern and they LIKE sport there) then they'll have a conflict-of-interest field day...

If it's anything like the last Falmer decision, it'll be when the courier arrives with the decision documents at Donne Mileham and Haddock. So normal office opening hours, I'd have thought.

Am I the only one whose stomach has just leapt a bit? I'm suddenly a bit less optimistic than I was. Dunno why. Shitting hell.

I live round the corner from where Harry Roberts killed three coppers in 1966. I'm not sure that that counts.

Sign the Alan Johnston petition.

COME ON TIM not really

Thanks CCider, on behalf of all of us currently at work.

I'm guessing a July 7th announcement (it's the Friday before the deadline, which is a Monday). Ruth Kelly has worked with Gordon Brown before, so I doubt she'll be frozen out. There are lots of suggestions about a Whitehall shakeup, with different bits of government (including the notoriously...

Interesting that most Labour members (yes OK, and trade unionists) voted first choice for Cruddas, who was far and away the least Blairite. Fewest of them voted for Hazel Blears, who was "unremittingly new Labour" in her words, and the most Blairite.
