  Like the wordplay there, Pauline. It appears to be a village near Reading in Berkshire, nestling on the bank of the River Thames, the UK's second longest river.

  I can confirm that the hand-over was completed without bloodshed. The disco was covering all eras of popular music culture. The Thompson party took place in the quiet zone and I believe I glimpsed Mr Tan there too. Up the Woolpack and viva le pubbe forever.

  I like Heston and think he is inventive but who on earth discovers these strange things to eat. From what I have read it is a gunge that is secreted from whales stomachs. Did a whale throw up on a beach one day and some sicko go and drink the chunder. All a bit like S&M really, quite unnecessary.
  
  Someone tell Heston that chicken nuggets is what the people want.

• Re: Ambergris by Hugh G Rection (Member 10266716) on 7-Dec-2011
  My dear fellow village people, do not fear but I can shed some light on this. Ambergris is the vomit from Sperm Whales. Its personal attributes make this strange looking lump worth lots of cash, in fact its worth more than gold per Gram. Its harvested in the ocean, normally it floats on top of the sea but can also be collected ashore. I would like to find a piece myself so then maybe I could bu
  y a nicer house than this pile of cack. A couple from aussie found a 14.5kg lump of it washed ashore on there holiday I believe, worth nearly £165.000. Oh well best i get my backside in gear and find a new job......now i wonder if these sperm fish hide in the canal.

• Re: McColl's by Alan Crownacre (Member 10176309) on 3-Dec-2011
  Drink (if that's what you meant) and sweets have a long shelf-life, so filling the shop with them is a cop-out when they could be stocking up on groceries and getting in fresh meat from a local butcher like they used to. Trouble is all the ordering is done in Harwich where they probably don't even know where Hamstreet is. The ultimate was when they were filling the food freezers with packets of ice.

• Re: McColl's by Klaus Vanderbaus (Member 10174538) on 5-Dec-2011
  If the people in Harwich are anything like the folk in Bury St Edmunds then I can understand the drink and sugar diet. I am on a course staying in a travel tavern and the people in this place are weird. A load of blokes turned up at the hotel last night with large airport style bags demanding ice cream! All very strange and for a time I believed my pint of Carlsberg had been modified with mind dru
  gs. On waking this morning things are still just as odd. One thing that bothers me is soft water, I am used to the hard Kentish chalk and lime water. This soft stuff is horrible, I can't rid myself of the soap. Anyway much love to all on this month of Christmas. Peace out.

• Re: McColl's by Klaus Vanderbaus (Member 10174538) on 5-Dec-2011
  I believe the shop only stocks items the customers buy and seeing that nearly all the village travel to town for main grocery shopping all McColls is good for is grog and sweets. There is not the demand for a small village newsagents to stock proper food or vegetables. With three or more 24hr supermarkets 10mins up the road and free buses to Jempsons and Tesco why buy local. I say get a Mr Whippy
  machine, everyone loves Whippy from toothless babies to toothless pensioners. Dave Levins knew what the people wanted, the people wanted Whippy.

• Re: McColl's by Quentin Montfort (Member 10174404) on 5-Dec-2011
  The post office part may have been busy but I bet the general store wasn't. Mc is a chain and obviously think Hamstreet residents want drink and sweets. The fact McColls halved the size of the shop was a joke to me. If you think how big the chocolate box was at one point and the village had a bakery etc and now the shops are more like kiosks it must mean the majority are going elsewhere for grocer
  ies. I believe the Chocolate box downsized as the business rates for the original large shop was crippling. The shop has been run down though over the years from what it once was in the Levins era. Why overnight did the off licence, video rentals etc stop.

• Re: McColl's by Quentin Montfort (Member 10174404) on 5-Dec-2011
  Other than the elderly most people work either in a town or somewhere near one of the big supermarkets. By the way do the big supermarkets deliver to the village?

• Re: McColl's by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 5-Dec-2011
  Sorry guys but it's making us more and more dependent on expensive petrol which is gonna get really pricey. People should go back to supporting the community. They can't expect the community to support them otherwise. Prime example is when petrol ran out and everyone came back to the local garage when they had been filling up at Tesco for years. Typical hypocrisy of villagers.

• Re: McColl's by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 5-Dec-2011
  I don't want to drive ten miles to town for a loo roll or a bag of sugar. That's £2 in fuel on top of whatever the sugar costs. Mackies need to sell what villagers want which is more than drink and chocolate. You can't knock the smaller shop for scaling back. They are just trying to survive. Like pubs. People complain that they have gone gastro but if local people used them they wouldn't have to do it.

  You are wrong about the shop, people want choice and little shops have no choice. People want supermarkets and want to actually leave their village once in a while not hermit it up sitting about loving Hamstreet.

• Re: McColl's by Herbert TheTurbot (Member 10191426) on 7-Dec-2011
  You work outside of Hamstreet so by working out of Hamstreet you are not supporting the village. Burn the witch.

• Re: McColl's by Hugh G Rection (Member 10266716) on 7-Dec-2011
  supporting the community.....Ha what a joke. Let me say this once all the old folk of todays society pop off we will be left with all the riff raff left today. If the government carry on as they are then it will be a dog eat dog world (in fact thats how it is now) Community will no longer exist as it will just be all the big dogs with lots of cash in the bank supporting the village. in about 25
  maybe 30 years time villages will be become like towns, know one will help each other and people will just stay in there groups, like being in a pub really.

• Re: McColl's by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 7-Dec-2011
  Au contraire Herbert. It is healthy to leave the village, yes, but some people like a community too. Who says small shops can't have choice? Remember Mr Waite? Eight freezers full of beautiful foodstuffs. Shelves busting at the seams with good wholesome choice. Mackies can do much better and should do. Also, working outside the village means that I am taking money from elsewhere and putting it int
  o the local economy. Look at the Co-op in Wye. Now, that's what I call a village shop. It can and should be done. If Mackies aren't going to sell the stuff, we need a butcher cum bakery cum fresh veg shop. This stuff really can work. It's not the 80s anymore where going up Cartiers for a freezer-full of frozen mousse was the height of excitment!

  Honest Answer :-
  
  A committee has been formed to look into ways of celebrating the passing (and stopping) of the Olympic flame in Hamstreet. It is viewed as a great day for Hamstreet and I hope that members of the village, past and present, all contribute to make the day a memorable one.

  Round about now residents of Hamstreet are packaged in a box with a nice straw or hay bed in a similar fashion to the Bluepeter tortoise.
  I went to the Ashford rugby club fireworks yesterday and not Hamstreet. The fireworks were set off by automation controlled by a computer and the whole sequence was rather boring.

  Well funny you ask Hakr, hello and nice to meet you by the way. Few weeks back i bumped into a nice lady in the newsagents, today like every other day I picked up the newspaper and would you believe it she came in. I happened to be looking for local mag to see if there was any info on the Olympic torch coming through the village, turns out she had the book in her hand :) We got talking and decide

Some of the products are quite stupid and unneccesary. BJ kneeling pads for one made me laugh, surely any gardening shop does knee pads without the need of buying via mail order and a markup just because it's a shop of that nature. I bet their

  Thank you for the welcome, so many questions and so little time. Firstly the G in my name is for Gota pronounced 'gotta' its a name thats been passed down the line for generations. I get the mick taken out of my name all the time but thats todays society.
  
  Yes thats thats the one on the victoria line, bit of a dump but thats why I moved down to Kent. I like how you made a judgement on what
  you think i do or did for a living. Unfortunately neither of those are correct. I work from home selling and managing the imported goods that are shipped from South Korea to the ports of the UK. Top imports are like inflatable toys (the ones that St john uses) Cheap cars, Pipeline for the Gas board......the list is endless.

• Re: Knowhere Xmas meet-up by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 28-Oct-2011
  The thing with acronymns is that you don't always use every letter. So the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds is RSPB and not RSFTPOB which would be a mouthful. Sometimes you use more that one letter too. An example is OXFAM. OX from Oxford and FAM from famine. I really have no idea what that word means though.

  Communist moderation on here, we all get excitable but this is real world. My name on here is rude and for effect, I'm a mother and a lorry driver though. Does everyone think new houses=good? I am not so sure we need them. Reasons for my views? Well another natural place suffers, somewhere we used to play as kids. I know we still have Hamstreet nature reserve and Orlestone Forest but how many peop
  le do we want in our village. The traffic outside the school is already at a critical and dangerous level.

  Hamstreet needs people that are going to use the village. These days you need more people to survive as most are going to opt out of village life, so a few houses can be good if local people can afford them, but concreting every green area like in Hawkinge is bad. At least the woods are safe unless Cameron and his money-mad fiends change the law.

  Back to the original topic, I heard that they are waiting for part of the tunnel to be constructed and it can only be built in Germany so that's why the roadworks are going on for so long.

• Re: Our station could be closed by Gosy (Member 10100271) on 10-Oct-2011
  I read in the Telegraph that some figure called the railway a rich mans toy. I work for said railway but take the following scenario.......
  
  A family of four want to travel to London on A Saturday to St Pancras, firstly the car parking at Ashford is £5 a day. The very cheapest train fare is £86 for two adults and two kids so you are looking at £91 just to get to London. Of course you need to
  eat and then more than likely need to pay an entry fee to whatever you plan to do in London.
  
  So can an average family afford £91 just to travel to London and this is public transport that should be affordable right? Well I couldn't afford to use the train if I did not get a concession.

• Re: Our station could be closed by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 18-Oct-2011
  Uranium is the heaviest naturally occuring element and has the atomic numbe 92. All elements beyond this are synthesised and some are only stable for a fraction of a second. Nuclear would seem the logical answer to the energy crisis (climate change and depletion of oil reserves) but what to do with the waste is the problem. Any thoughts of wind and solar power?

• Re: Hens... by Paul Goatox (Member 10176489) on 27-Aug-2011
  Not heard of any purple song. I think all songs with swearwords should be kept off the radio except 'Money' by Pink Floyd and 'Who Are You' by The Who.
