    Dagnabbit, Del! I had Wilko too...glad he denied us his points. Still time for a late death or 2 though! Bigsby usually comes strong at the end of the year (unless he photoshopped those selfies!).

    Happy to see the evil old git deliver me some points on his journey to wherever.

    Glad it's gone to a good home! Once I've had my facelift & a personality transplant you'll have to introduce me to your mum

    If not, I'll go for it. Was once asked to join Mrs Gerrard's Accordion Band!

    Apparently Paul had reached the stage where he couldn't stand the sight of her face, although the reasons behind it are complicated. Think it's known as an Edie-puss complex.

    This looks like one of those cases of love!! All the best!

    I would say...just dinna! It'll save all the divorce hassle a few years down the line. But if you absolutely have to...go for the simple registrar's office wedding, book Cellar 35 or Downstairs, Tunnels etc and have a cool evening. Use the cash saved on wedding shite for a grand honeymoon! If the wife-to-be objects to the lack of grandeur don't invite her along.

    I second Katz's deli. Ride the Cyclone & Wonder Wheel at Coney Island (grab a Nathan's Hot Dog). Check out the East Village live scene (Cake Shop, Sidewalk Cafe etc) Loads of galleries, but less obvious ones are the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Cloisters and the Folk Museum beside MOMA. One time I was there in summer, and it was unpleasantly clammy...had to stagger from one air conditioned coffee shop to the next. I know it's obvious, but don't miss the best freebies...Brooklyn Bridge & the Staten Island Ferry. There used to be plenty happening in Williamsburg, but spmewhere
