    I hope you're talking about cars...

    I guess Hoppy is working his way through his pill stash as he can't drink.

    Nah, out at a party. Drove. People are farking boring after they've had about 4 pints and you've had nowt.

    I ate a shitload of grub though. Sandwiches, satay chicken skewers, hot sausage rolls, cheese. Pineapple juice was the bevvy of choice.

    I like Tooting. Lots of good places to eat and drink. I suppose the high street looks a bit shabby, but not everywhere can be Knightsbridge or Mayfair.

    I've run out of pills. Might have to revisit the work private gp with "back spasms" to get a new 'script. NHS aren't so free and easy. Though i really shouldn't. Always handy to have a few though.

    Stand out feature of Tooting for me is those Somali refugees who camp on the bench outside the library:

    Stacks of bavette, beaten thin, cooked rare, rested, sliced on the bias, Yorkshire pudding, kale with garlic and lemon, broccoli, reduction of beef stock in the steak pan. V happy family.

    40 mins start to finish. Kilo of bavette reduced to £8 in Waitrose. Now, that's a cheap and tasty way to feed 4 on a Sunday evening.

    Mrs DHL always overcooks the spinach. Tries to cook it quick but still overdoes it. Max 15s or its glue.

    Hospital slop.
    And - worse, I can't get someone to go to the cafe and get me a proper coffee. I might have to go on hunger strike.

    F*cking right. Success: no hunger strike I got a coffee.
    @ the MF's: Hip replacement replacement.

    Can Hoppy jump on the train and be my personal chef?
