Heads up - Interesting threads in the main section


Keef

Recommended Posts

I thought I'd start this, as I very rarely bother looking in the General ED issues bit fo the forum, as when I do, there is usually little that interests me.


HOWEVER (and it's a big however), I have missed such gems as the Squatters on Goose Green, and the deleted (very quickly) CPT Quiz thread), so I'd ask you all, if there is a thread worth reading, with the possibility of a good old disagreement, or laugh, can you please point it out here, so I can go and find it, and make my work days that much more interesting.


There is currently a good one about a 25 year old former Dulwich College student who got kicked in by some yoots. That is not funny. Some of the comments on the thread are.


Cheers.

Agreed Quids, there have been a few really cracking rows in that section!


Cheers legalbeagle. That proves the necessity for this thread, I would have totalle ignored that thread, and even now I'm 8 pages late.

Good heavens is that where all the interesting theads are hanging out now? Well thanks for the pointer. There's normally too much righteous indignation in the main section for me to take anything seriously but I'm off to have a gander now.

Keef, how very remiss of you not to read the ED section regularly. How can you appreciate the 'Murali - Goodrich Road' thread unless you had seen the original one over there?


Now you have no excuse not to contribute to Ted Max's excellent thread.

If I were you (which I am not - granted) I would send Admin a PM asking them why. It's only fair that you should be given the reason(s).


What have you got to lose? They are generally pretty reasonable.


While you are at it, you could ask them about the duration of the ban...it cannot be for life (can it?).


Good luck xx

Yes it can be for life if admin wants. It is admin's forum so admin can ban poeple as admin sees fit.


Note, I have no idea why the bans were put in place, and I think daizie is proper funny (especially when she has ventured in to the family room once or twice), but people need to realise that admin is not employed by some higher power to impose certain rules. Admin set this forum up, and payed for it. Yes people may donate, but that is an individual choice, and a donation, not a sunscription, so if admin decided they didn't like anyone called Keef, and decided to ban me for life, that would be admin's right.


Anyway, about those interesting threads in other sections...

I cannot disagree with anything you have said there Keef.


Of course, it is Admin's forum etc. But my point is that, given that they are a reasonable bunch and they do run the forum very well, I would have thought that they would have no problem furnishing Daizie with a reason. A life ban - which (to me anyway) would suggest a contravention of the Forum's rules of some magnitude - would (in my opinion) render the requirement to give a reason to our very amusing Daizie all the more necessary. But who am I eh?


Anyway...sorry to divert...back to these amusing threads...

There's a great thread now about an appalling attack by a gang of kids on a man in Dulwich.

And yup, someone's mentioned the NS words (national service).


And is this right, that daizie does not know the details of her crime? So therefore doesn't even know what she's doing wrong?

    • I highly recommend Phil at Four Paws doors for fitting a pet door. He has recently fitted a new microchip door for me in a very awkward tight spot. He came up with a solution for the problem of how to fit it within the space and supplied the appropriate flap as well as fitting it. The work was done within a couple of days of my initial enquiry. He was very friendly and helpful throughout and did not make a fuss despite having to work hunched under a desk and hitting his head several times!!!  His indepth knowledge was really beneficial and so much better than getting a general handyman to do it.  http://www.fourpawsdoors.co.uk/ m. 07814 406010
    • Cars are getting bigger and heavier (new cars have become so bloated that half of them are too wide to fit in parking spaces designed to the minimum on-street standards. The average width of a new car in the EU and UK passed 180cm in the first half of 2023, having grown an average of 0.5cm each year since 2001). Speed enforcement is also pretty rare in practice and according to DfT stats, under free-flowing traffic conditions, 50% of car drivers exceed the speed limit on 30mph roads. Hopefully we'll see regulation to stop the car bloat arms race, and perhaps moves to use the same geofenced speed limiters deemed essential for electric hire scooters, but not currently SUVs. Would certainly be more effective and cause less noise, pollution and damage than speed bumps. Also the cost gets passed to the manufactures, rather than public authorities.
    • Another recommendation for Half Moon- my youngest daughter attended and it was by far the best nursery we’ve ever experienced. The teachers are just wonderful and they care so much for the children (who, in return, love them to bits). There’s also a very low staff turnover, so there’s real stability and continuity for the children. My daughter left each day so happy and proud to show me what she’d learnt. It’s amazing!
    • Did you take the car number? Otherwise the council wil have to look through it for an address.
