  1. Why is this any of our business? I know of others in the area with issues over neighbour's extensions but feel no need to share here. After all the great things said about this forum this appears to be salacious nonsense. Sadly I was drawn in my the Daily Mail headline. Guilty as charged! Ps probably used the wrong adjective but maybe not considering the headline!
  2. PS get real, flash cars for some are still a status symbol.
  3. Back to my earlier post. However wrong you may think the action is, it is very low level. You won't see me condoning it, but the response from many seems over the top. I'm enjoying the Glastonbury documentary, which refers to some direct action such as Greenham Common. Do watch it on i-player if you haven't seen it. I'm certainly on the womens' side who did help change history. But at time the press, Tory party and good citizens of Newbury demonised them. It will be interesting to see how history judges XR etc.
  4. Bit reactionary Spartacus.Britain had a proud history of direct action to change society. Many would argue environmentalists vandalism is preferable to environmental vandalism. Manufactured tin cans Vs destruction of the planet. The former is trivial.
  5. Cheers Rah Rah. Generally reflect my views. Driven zillions of miles and never had a blow out. Certainly wasn't great at looking after my tyres in my younger days. Vulcanised rubber is pretty robust, and just doesn't fail like some are suggesting. You can argue that it is the wrong tactic in campaigning against emissions, but please don't use spurious information on tyre failure to justify your argument.
  6. I have a foot pump in the car. I can also change a tyre. I'd find it annoying but that's all.
  7. If we hadn't domesticated chickens they wouldn't be stuck in a cage easy target for a fox that would naturally only chase one at a time out in the open.
  8. Misread this as misguided and clueless, which as I was watching the Foreign Secretary on BBC news was totally appropriate
  9. My point was whether you can make businesses responsible for the litter, as opposed to punters. I'm sure there is some part of the world where this is common. However that could absolve individuals of their responsibility. Nigello I generally find you posts informative but it does annoy me when people use sweeping judgemental statements - 'low life scum'. This could be seen to apply to a large section of society...
  10. Tut tut, Westerham is in Kent, but good to know that perverse practices happen there!
  11. Is this any different to people dropping their McDs carton in the street? A shame that we all don't take more personal responsibility but hardly isolated to the Gala. I'd love McDs to be responsible to ensure that punters dispose of their waste, and Walkers for their crisp packets etc etc....
  12. Visited Venice during Carnival ten years ago. It was absolutely wonderful. Returned a few years later and selfie sticks blocked your view. Dunno what you can do about it ... Won't go to big gigs any more. When Red Arrows flew by the Mall most people were recording it. Apart from our Liz!
  13. Tried not to post on this matter Mr/Mrs R but this is another level of ridiculousness. Working in London for many years an hour was a reasonable commute. Many spent much longer. You just manipulate everything to justify your immovable views. Hopefully won't post again, but you may put something down even more ludicrous.
  14. My word, do we have to go to the outer boroughs for more diversity? What a wonderful role reversal. Great article, made me smile
