    Plod were out at some London train stations yesterday evening barring entry off the train to those who had no 'good reason' to be there.

    Seems like we're entering the VERE ARE YOUR PAPERZ??? stage of Diana style lunacy now.

    I heard an interview with the landlady of The Florist Arms a day or two ago on Radio 4, saying that she was struggling to cope with the lack of customers. I decided to go and 'support' it, but found that The Camel was more deserving.
