Beware of Falling Concrete

[satyrica]

Lambeth Council is, at best, a distant feature in our lives but it's taken to writing us some fairly odd letters this week: one threatening to evict people if they don't stop squeaking their doors [not that we're *actually* their tenants] and another politely asking us not to use our balcony at the moment due to falling masonry. Mind you it's been a fairly surreal week in general what with the unforeseen consequences of mixing different groups of friends and getting up to find the front door wide open and a gaggle of strange men in the living room at four in the morning, but they're someone else's story ;-)

Politics also seems just plain weird at the mo: firstly the Labour party only manages to get what it wants due to the support of Anne Widdecombe and Iain Paisley, then a top Tory resigns over a matter on which all of his party (sans la Widdecombe) were in agreement . . .

It's "Blog like it's the end of the world day" (I am told) ... part of me wonders if this is just the most subtle example of the genre...

Iain Paisley is pretty apocalyptic . . .

On seeing the title, I expected your post to have something to do with venta's post featuring her Einstürzende Neubauten lanyard:

Maybe her lanyard has something to do with your flat.

ahhh: this went over my head, I'm afraid, but Wikipedia has explained all!
