'Stylish Masturbator' is funny though

30 minutes sounds way too long for my taste. Get it over and done with in half that, ideally. Imagine 30 minutes of Prince Philip, then another 30 of Charles; anecdotal euthanasia.

Half a peking duck in Chinatown last night, served tepid; just like the service.

My parents did that. Neither other-side approved. Tough shit.

Useless degrees - depends how you measure its effects. A degree isn’t just a means to an end – it can satisfy your interest in something other than your career path, or be done for no other reason than you fancy another challenge.

I’d rate personal fulfilment higher than career ambitions, and if you’ve got that, having completed a degree, then it’s been far from useless.

I think misogyny is stretching it a bit too far, but I can see how on the other side it’s an affectation that’s pointless, to ask permission, but well meaning all the same

Not that^^^^

Lad on a Cinelli Vigorelli, Phil hubs, Holborn, just now...

The mist over in W10 was well worth the southbound trip down Edgware Road, the bright sun looming ahead, clear and bright. Lovely stuff.

Is there a separate restaurant thread? I can't find one.

Any recommendations for Thai food in central / EC?

Frikken Christmas season and having to find venues for fussy eaters.

Not as such, but this thread includes recommendations;

Best Thai restaurant in town is Nahm, at the Halkin Hotel, Belgravia. Very expensive though.

Here's the muppet, Jonathan Legard

Any resemblance to the psychopathic vilain from 'Manhunter' is entirely coincidental...

I like old Eddie. Saw him not so long ago wobbling on a bike in Mayfair. Not fond of boring old Coulthard in the slightest.

Ferrari definitely blew it. They seemed almost sure they'd win, given most factors were in their favour. I actually thought Alonso was gracious in his interview afterwards. And well done Vettel. Led the championship precisely once, but right when it mattered.

+1 to Martin Brundle – I’m not sure there’s a better sports broadcaster. He deserves more recognition – total natural.

Yep, that is a gorgeous thing.

A white front spoke in Paddington, and a black front spoke in Holborn. Both attached to bikes, neither of which I noticed anything else about.

To this day the freshest fish I've ever tasted came from a place in Cleveleys years ago, just outside Blackpool. Regular fish and chips, but squeaky fresh and delicious - caught that day.

^^^All I ever write/do is satire. To be serious though I have written stuff along those lines, and have had bits published. But not nearly enough to pay the bills/get drunk frequently/bag hot women.

Looks like a good link Rich, I'll be plagiarising him soon enough

Interesting. If there's one thing I was put on this earth to do, it's write. Nothing else gives me anything like as much satisfaction. It's my natural interest. I reckon it's a totally selfish pursuit too. I've written this and that, here and there, but never on the themes I'd like - satire/criticism.

I did some work experience for a literary agency a while ago, and the refusal rate for unsolicited manuscripts was pretty much 100% - tough gig, writing.
