Come on people - there's photos from past drinks, there's Facebook, regular posters have a persona often let people know quite alot about themselves, there's a group on Facebook called "East Dulwich is the coolest place in London" (HA HA by the way), you can easily find some of the more 'famous' posters just with those, then just look at their friends - it's not bleedin difficult if you can be arsed, I'm not that bothered but everyone has a bit of curiosity and I've certainly identified a fair few posters on here on Facebook, and am friends with a few now GO ON GO AND FIND ME....to a degree isn't that the whole point of Facebook, if you're bothered get off it! The internet opens us all up to this if you then google or do a linked-in search you'll probably find out loads about people just from what they've put in the public domain (incidentally I haven't done that on anyone on here). If you've a blog and twitter you're shouting even louder LOOK AT ME...and to a degree that's what it is all about, isn't it, this social networking thing? BBW once put up a post saying he was naturally inquisitive and fancied himself as an amateur detective and I'm sure he just did a bit of the above nothing more sinister. He's a reasonably confident bloke but probably a little bit insensitive to thinking about the impact of just going up to stranger and saying "Hi you're XXX from the EDF" . Personally I'm sure there is nothing more worrying than BBW being a bit insensitive to this as was his posting sometime - he's a pretty normal bloke for a cross-bow wielding, demolition expert from 'up there'. Seriously, to continually talk about him as a stalker is not just untrue but also unfair when he has no way of replying. the bloke lives round here, drinks round here and is known by quite a lot of people.

Smells vaguely of wines and spices in here. Very tidy though. *opens Stella picks up old copy of Rustler settles on Chesterfield*

Mathew it's a vote...among players..who all play. I prefer their judgement to yours. Sorry about that.

mine's as crap as it always is but no more crap than normal

on a serious note I have realised what a load of politically incorrect nonsense the song "Wheels on the bus" is with its stereotyping of children, dads, etc I am not allowing my kids to sing it anymore

er, I presume Ryan Giggs won the PFA player of the year by being voted it by the members of the PFA, sounds a pretty good and decent way of winning it judged by your fellow professionals rather than a joke

Stella 4% - enough said, cooking lager ain't worth ?2 a gallon

I don't think that'll be a pretty thing Jah!. Not sure if it's all easy money though - eating bugs and shoved around from pillar to post and station to station

Try reading posts that aren't poking fun at an easy target but pointing out the stupidity of prejudice - jeez, read them and look up satire too...I give in if people can't see that.

it's all a bit big brother 1984 to me, with them all saying look at me i'm a star...man. I expect they start to feel under pressure in there though.

..and who said Guardian readers hadn't got a sense of humour? Come on.... I've never seen a more tongue in cheek set of posts poking fun at such stupidty as charging fat people all through this thread. Fight battles that are worth fighting FFS not ones that don't exist.

Bus no, Tube yes...stooping into my space

Huzzah *raises 6 cans of Stella and chinks*

This thread is about 'standard jabs' not swine flu innoculations is it not? I suspect that there is some fear about swine-flu jabs (although personally I think that's misguided too). BUT this is about standard innoculations that have vastly reduced the danger of a whole host of diseases which killed and disabled infants for generations - and still do in countries where vaccine and innoculation aren't as universally applied. What's the herbal prevention for Polio? What is homeopathies answer for TB? Where are the rigourous test applied to these?

It's amazing what people will do for fame. Jimmy White looks the most likely candidate though.

DC...mmm..maybe this debate needs a more considered approach in the drawing room but the unions record on accountbility and democracy is appalling....the Unions bought down a democratically elected governemnt direcly in the early 70s and arguably a Labour one at the end of that decade. They certainly helped usher in the conservatives in 1979 and then helped them stay in power as the electorate had decided that it was better that the democratically elected government run the country than a largely political motivated Union leadership - history maybe but if we're going to generalise about big business and Unions I know which I believe was more dangerous to the democratic process in relative recent history.

and you keep warm

Was going to make a similar point re Unions. They represent their members fair enough to a degree but kind of try and have it both ways that because they are 'leftish' they somehow have the best interests of society as a whole at their core...which is by and large horsehit.

Can't you make them some sort of feature?
