I need to ask - what was he arrested for? Or is 'suspicion of being VTech' now an arrestable offence?

I arrested someone last night, he earns more in a week than I earn in a year apparently. See his watch, it cost more than my car (despite him having no idea what I drive)
See his jeans £400 they cost....
His shoes were hand made too.
I could tell you how much every single thing he was wearing cost, I have no idea why he thought I was interested. And he also made it clear I would never afford any of his wealthy trapping on my lowly wage.
I did actually ask him if he goes by the name Vtech on the internet.... He says he didn't so it must just be a coincidence.....

The thing is - knowing of a decent restaurant either in or around Knightsbridge is hardly ground-breaking stuff. The place is probably full of them, as is the surrounding area, I expect...0 -

Reminds me of when I used to go whitewater kayaking there was a huge slab of rock on the River Dart that you could seal launch down and do pop outs like that "Arran, you are like the Tony Benn of smut. You have never diluted your depravity and always stand by your beliefs. You have my respect sir and your wife my pity"

tbh decent restaurants in knightsbridge are rare, there are plenty of mediocre ones though, and some are just dire
i grew up there, 38 pont street, george lazenby was upstairs neighbour, and another neighbour, nice american old lady, mrs maine, gave me my first cat, ginger, as a kid i remember lobbing ice cubes off of the nearby carlton towers for fun (after a couple of rebrands it's now a bloody jumeirah, ye gods and little fishes), the harrods food department used to have dry ice to keep things cold until you got home, big chunks of it, which led to many interesting experiments, happy days

ah, I just realised my mistake - I should have said 'expensive', not 'decent'... 0 -

He punched someone. In the face.
Never got to the bottom of it... Bloke probably wasn't giving him the respect he deserved or needed.
He'd just flown back from the far east you know, business class too. :roll:0 -

Yes, it is impressive. I've never lived in London and have considered it.
As for the usual guff, I can accept that but could you imagine the reaction if I said one of my neighbours was a top premiership player (much smaller house than mine btw) or that when I'm in Miami this week I'll be staying at brad Pitts house and when in then fly to LA at the weekend I'll be stopping at simon cowels house. Imagine the shat storm that would cause !

Never mind. I suppose your wit and repartee over the phone will keep her happy.
And she will have her personal trainer to make sure she doesn't get frumpy in your absence.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Brilliant stuff - nice block. I've done some jobs the other side of that little square. Lovely properties - some very nice decorative brickwork.
I am sure a different time though. As a student nurse in the 60s, my mother lived in Claborn Mews. Doubt a student nurse could afford that nowadays!0 -

Totally out of control!
The price of housing needs to fall back to come in line with wages as the current system is unsustainable.
Not that it will happen voluntary as too many would get caught in negative equity or lose out on investments.
It will take a bigger crash than 2008 to happen, but happen one day it will.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Admitedly I've got you down as a Walter Mitty type living in an online fantasy world thinking you're impressing randoms on a cycling forum, but thats okay as this is the internet. I mean, i'm not even a Cop living in the Highlands, I'm a Welder Fabricator living in Bolton. 8)
But just to remind you why.....

The problem is, as this is the internet you have no idea if that is true or not but I would hazard a guess most would actually opt for the true option.Living MY dream.0 -
Well, I don't care what anybody else says - I for one am really impressed. To be fair, staying at Simon Cowell's house is the kind of thing that most of us can only dream of. The reality is that most of us will never achieve that kind of status. Quite literally, awesome.0
