This time it's a quiz night, and Stacey asked me so long ago that I said yes, and then forgot to make an excuse for not being able to go. </p> Dom Joly Sun, 11 May 2008 00:00:01 +0100 http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/columnists/dom-joly/dom-joly-i-took-no-prisoners-when-i-fought-the-parking-nazis-820707.html http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/columnists/dom-joly/dom-joly-i-took-no-prisoners-when-i-fought-the-parking-nazis-820707.html?r=RSS <p>It must be the effect of making my new TV series 'The Complainers', but lately I've become much more vocal in expressing my disapproval of things.</p> Dom Joly Sun, 04 May 2008 00:00:01 +0100 http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/columnists/dom-joly/dom-joly-ive-got-a-great-idea-for-a-play-no-actors-816126.html http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/columnists/dom-joly/dom-joly-ive-got-a-great-idea-for-a-play-no-actors-816126.html?r=RSS <p>I took Stacey out on the town this week &ndash; brought her up from country exile for a big night out.

It was going to be 50p per swear word, and she and Jackson would split the proceeds at the end of each month. It was all very entrepreneurial and there was no way we could refuse without setting a pretty bad example. </p> Dom Joly Sun, 20 Apr 2008 00:00:01 +0100
