    Correct Drew. When are this Tory led government going to take responsibility for their actions though? After 2 years, 3 perhaps? I rather think never! Just find someone else to blame....LibDems anyone?

    Handcross Hill.. 3 years of roadworks.. Does it affect you?

    Being Handcross born and bred we had waited for improvements on this section since the first major accident in 1908. There was a memorial halfway up north bound side to remind people to be careful and remember those poor lost souls from Orpington. Seems to have been removed during one of the...

    Deaf Albion Fans

    Hi, At withdean we sat in various locations but mainly the family stand. Son used to be curly fair haired, not blonde, but now brown. Whilst I have rather lost the thatch if that's a clue. Starting with the alphabet is good and then move on to simple greetings. Gradually you can build on...

    Just out of interest,the price of gold & Gordon Brown.

    Lets see. Sold house in the seventies for £2,500. Yet same house would be worth £300,000 now. I must have been a fool to do that. Look you make a decision to sell at the market rate at the time. All governments were selling at that point. It was seen as practically worthless. I recall at...

    It's Maggie Thatchers Fault

My mother a 'seagull' fan died due to cut backs that delayed essential surgery 2 1/2 years. I miss her very...
