"Best brains" problem (15 mins ago)

I am sure I heard Digby Jones on Radio Four say the government should be careful in their regulation of the financial sector as the "best brains" will flee the country...

The Knowledge - 4 comments

Sorry for the light posting; to give myself a bit more time to think of something to say about the Budget (comments here are thoughtful), or indeed anything else of importance in the world, please try to be satisfied with this:

Among the debris I collected from drawers at my former workplace was the following business card (you may speculate as to why I tore one end off) from Cozy's Bar & Restaurant ("The original City Wine Bar"), 11 Sun Street, London. Click for a larger version.



Kudos to the first reader to spot something a little odd about the map printed on the reverse - odd, given that I picked up the card in either Christmas 2005 or Christmas 2006, and it has an email address (AOL) printed on the other side. Anybody?

Broad Street station had long gone by then...

Yes, we have a winner. It was flattened in 1986 and now has an ice rink, an overpriced steak restaurant, a golfing goods emporium, the longest Post Office queues, and a couple of the worst pubs in London on top. And traders by the hundred. Possibly the only good thing about the Broadgate complex is the motorised pavement-cleaner that drives around in the morning dispensing lemon-scented cleaning fluid.

What with the signed B/W Keith Harris and Mike Yarwood photos on the walls, and its client demographics, Cozy's is definitely keeping the early 80s alive.

Don't suppose you want to read my reminiscences about catching the 8:07 from Primrose Hill (now, alas, also departed) to Broad Street any more than anyone else does do you? Thought not, no wonder I had to stop blogging!

Sorry, I can't find it, can you send a link?

Thought not, no wonder I had to stop blogging!

Don't think that I (and others) don't notice when B4L-ers stop. They are, so often, missed.
