I heard rumours that she was blackmailing him into staying with her. Apparently their bedroom antics ran to the, how shall we say, 'unorthodox', and she had the photographs and scars to prove it.... |

I was walking to Marble Arch tube just after the hail stopped. It was amazing. MA tube was queueing to get in as people tried to get underground out of the 'weather'. There were dozens of tourists in ... |

I've been saying this for years, so I'm glad to see that there's a government report to confirm this. Although equally disappointed to see people slamming this as whitewash from the PC brigade etc etc... |

Far be it from me that I should defend Ken, but I guess there's a first time for everything... This story doesn't really hold much water. £16,000 does sound like a lot to splash on "fine dining", but... |

Quite right, though the deposit protection scheme was a big improvement, unfortunatly as they use the assured shorthold value cap (which dates to 1991) its basicaly irrelevent for anyone sharing a big... |

Used to have a market stall there. Wonderful road - much more exciting than Portobello itself. Best place in London for Moroccan spices and cookware.... |

I am amused in an exasperated kind of way that last week's temperatures of a whole 30 degrees resulted in a weather warning and so did the thunderstorms that followed. Warning: some weather may occur.... |

Really? I doggedly apply for a refund every time the bloody tube delays me for 15 minutes or more. But then, I'm pretty fucking anally retentive.... |

The map has been updated to include a few more courts. If there are any more you'd like me to include please leave a comment.... |

I'm sorry to say goodbye, darling, but you must admit things between us have become a little... stale?... |

I can see how the quote pictured might help, "hell is other people" in a crammed space could possibly provoke some kind of rampage though :D... |

Great feast in London, and this is directly followed by Wimbledon tennis. Lord, London is one happening place, would love to visit it some time! -- Guy... |

Can’t afford a cupcake? That’s rough. We’d love to know what specifically you’re looking for in the way of food and drink coverage. What’s affordable in your opinion? We’ve started a series of review... |

Haha, no (and if you have checked under the hood, lucky you!) The comment is from her husband, some functionary in the french government... can't remember his name... ... |

The Dog and Fox pub in Wimbledon Village also has free wifi (I think it's called the High Street it's on but it's the main street in Wimbledon Village).... |

Great news, no what about the rest of the rail network? Plus, anything that leaves that homophobe Brian Souter out of pocket is fine by me... |

Heh heh! That's because they're all pretty shitty, let's be honest. Ok, OK I take it back. And I admit I've got a fair few friends from Oxbridge – they're only a bit socially retarded ;)... |

It's the first clickable link on the post, which points to an online gallery, here: "the piece is by Banksy imitator Not Banksy" That link credits the wrong people for the giveaway. Peace, notbanksy... |

There's certainly an insider/outsider problem as well. But I think if all prices were allowed to float freely the result would be massively expensive housing for _everyone_, rather than for almost eve... |

Dave - the impact of bendy buses on car drivers is marginal (as pointed out by markle). My solution admittedly was not, but alternative/public transport is the only choice for frustrated non-commercia... |

I think this is a good idea. I'd rather know what I'm doing to myself than not. That way, I can choose properly and I do like choice. Guilt or no, one's still going to do what one wants to do, no?... |

You sound young and idealistic. Nothing wrong with that. London contains far too many cynical old crabs like me. That's why it's so important that we can crawl away to more suitable locations; Bexh... |

Utterly useless set of guidelines from the police. Technology has left them so far behind. If they're anything later than a few seconds slower than you taking the picture you could remove it from the ... |

I'm not sure The Stinging Nettle's roof terrace counts as one of the top ten in London. Unless, that is, you like staring at the rundown buildings of Goldhawk Road, and a rarely active tube line. Plu... |

There's a good reason why Westfield Stratford will be opening in 2011, and that's because it's not an Olympic project. Westfield was all planned and underway before London won its Games bid. The deve... |

For those of you lucky enough to live in the same borough as the AELTC, there is a small gem on the otherwise uninspiring Merton Council website: where to play tennis in Merton. But don't go out in t... |

Interestingly, the first time I ever used an SLR was at Wimbledon. Back in the late eighties and early nineties you could always find a Nikon stand where they actually hired out their SLR cameras with... |

I use Oyster pre-pay and I walked. 1 hr 10 each way, each day. But for my friends and colleagues who couldn't walk to their destinations, and where they couldn't get on a bus that was jam-packed and t... |

I'd add the Edinboro Castle in Camden (Although the service can be dreadful, the garden is lovely). The Queen's Hotel in Crouch End is the nicest one I know of in my neck of the woods, would love to ... |
