I see that Humdinger has been "deactivated". -

Humdinger, judging from a quick review of your posting history, you may well qualify for troll status. -
attempted muggging (in the Unicorn, Rye Lane) - Lounged
Zebedee Tring replied to JohnL's topic in The Lounge
Like Foxy I loved those good old days in LL when you could enjoy 15 pints in one of those lovely boozers and enjoy a nice punch up outside afterwards. None of them poncy gastro pubs serving guacamole and the like. Then you could have a good chinwag with Mad Frankie Fraser and his mates. Those were the days. At least after Brexit we'll be getting our country back with pounds, shillings and pence again. -
Natty01295, how can you suggest that the *whole* of the NHS is in a terrible mess? My family has had some poor experiences of the service but very many experiences have been first rate. Would you prefer to have a totally privatised health service akin to that in the USA, something that the likes of Jeremy Hunt has suggested?

southwark council van pollution
Zebedee Tring replied to JickieC's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
The Council would be potentially liable for the actions of their employee in the course of his employment, at least in civil law. -
Sorry Ronnijade but it was you used the word "nonce". Nobody else can change your posts - only you can. I would suggest that it would be in your best interests for you to apologise to the poster that you insulted or you might find yourself on the wrong end of a writ. Insult me like you have insulted everybody else, but when you're in a hole you should stop digging.

The poster who was accused of being a paedophile could potentially sue Ronnijade for libel. There are recent precedents for this. Administrator please note.

"New" bus routes starting 15th June
Zebedee Tring replied to Zig-Zag's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Aren't there only one or two Boris buses on the 176 route? Or have these buses only been put on this route recently? -
Uncleglen am I right in assuming that you are not a socialist and that you voted Leave? Please accept my profuse apologies if I have got this wrong.

"New" bus routes starting 15th June
Zebedee Tring replied to Zig-Zag's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Humdinger, it's not easy for everyone to hop easily from one bus to another. A year ago I was about to have a hip replacement and found it difficult to get on and off a bus. I am in much better shape now but there are masses of people who would struggle to do what you suggest. -
I remember those days when I used to walk barefoot to school in six feet of snow and was regularly flayed alive by my teachers. But it made me the man that I am today, unlike all those snowflakes growing up today.

Sainsburys - removed more trolley tills
Zebedee Tring replied to tiddles's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Ed-pete, I started using self service petrol stations more than 50 years ago. You can't compare the simple task of purchasing one item and then paying a real life human being with buying a multitude of items and continual attempts to find and then swipe barcodes accompanied by beeps and the monotonous, patronising voice of a VR woman saying "unidentified item in the bagging area", or whatever phrase they have been programmed to say when the system doesn't work. But if you're happy to do the supermarket's work for them without receiving a discount for doing so, then that's up to you. Once again, what about elderly and disabled people who need help from supermarket staff? Aren't they worthy of your consideration? -

Why the hell should we do Sainsbury's work for them? I refuse to use self checkouts. If asked why not, I ask for a 10% discount for doing so. If pushed, I would say that self service shopping was against my religion and would ask them to respect my diversity. More importantly, what about elderly and disabled people who need help from supermarket staff?
