He's right Lewes. (though it pains me to say so)

Turnham Green.

There's a website:
Mornington Crescent Appreciation Society.

But I'm not going to post the link because of the possibility of transmutation of the gene with the particularly virulent strains of NVAJD and NVASD we have on this forum.

OK

Mornington Crescent broadcast on BBC Radio 4 (but not currently):

is either a silly and pointless quiz billed as the antidote to all quiz programmes or

a subtle and very clever intellectual parlour game in the Dadaist tradition but borrowing also from the much earlier work of such pioneer surrealist writers as Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear.
There are those who read it as a commentary on the utter futility of man's existence; the incomprehensibility of most rules and laws and the pathetic schoolboy humour of middle class white Englishmen who have nothing better to do at 12.30 on a Saturday.

Smile are Cool

If one could only have a blank circular disk instead of a face?

Then with the click of mouse one could have a face to suit one's mood all the way from Frown through Roll Eyes to Big Grin

Confused Wink SmileBonjour!
I really am confused with this topic about various locations around Chelsea and Kensington. I am in France at the moment and it's confusing enough as it is. I thought that I'd take a wee peek at the forum and see if anybody had been given the golden ticket to the West End.....obviously not.....think I shall hide here in France until it is all over.....got a flight back on 29th....just incase the postman has something for me on the 30th!!!!

Hello, miss cathcart.

I had a History teacher called Miss Cathcart, can you be she?

France is a wonderful place in which to be confused.

I wish I could be confused and be in France.

No, my Miss Cathcart wasn't nice.

She wrote rude things on my homework.

She must be ancient by now, she was old and miserable way back then .

We called her Miss Carthorse...except when she wrote rude things on my homework ; then she was Miss S***cart.

Enjoy your holiday. Big Grin

My maths teacher was nice.

She used to put kisses against all my work ...

I left school with 2 CSE's, maths and art.

I was painting computers for three years!

Sorry - NVAJD disease relapse!
