Sean - ever met any alcoholics or families ruined by booze? Where are your threads about closing down bars? I've noticed yours and others use of the word "WE"....are you the collective opinion of all the EDF? Forums are places for debate sorry If you're not up for that....but unless you really speak for everyone (and I'm sure you speak for a lot) I'd change your "We" to "I"... Meanwhile, whilst this is an open forum which I'm allowed to post on I'll continue to have my own opinions even if they are in the minority... If this was a dinner party I'd understand you're annoyance at the appearance of an unwelcome guest that disagreed with you and your mates but it's not it's a public forum. The laugh is that I'm sure that you and others think you're very liberal and tolerant and full of original thpought and opininon.....infact you're not at all........

You don't like me much do you mockney?

In the spirit of the forum....slightly ironic too, hence the '' but I've noticed ED forumities aren't that good at picking irony up, maybe the nuances of the medium....buy maybe not

Nope - just pointing out the many coded references to 'it' in several posts on here

The liberal pussyfooting around a (the?) major but unmentionable issue on this forum is hilarious

So, in conclusion...gambling offends the sensibilities of the petit bourgeois

I wanted to work in a bank but now I'm a rock star

I get on that train...and it's always full of people who get in my way, for now I just shout at them but pretty soon I'm gonna get tooled up

...basically, and this isn't meant provocatively , like most people, your 'principles' amount to not a lot when an opportunity for financial or personal gain arises...take it, you know you want to

Things that annoy me in pubs include - Ugly people Braying groups of horsey girls People watching the 'footy' in replica shirts Blokes drinking halves People paying by card Peole drinking that blue stuff in bottles like kids, I have to put up with all these as they are all legally allowed in and i don't own any pubs to make my rules

Fantastic, you mean potentially the whole of LL could be a row of betting shops? Wow! We could do with a shop selling loads of baby stuff too and how about a highly expensive nick-nack shop, etc. etc.

anyone done a maths teacher joke yet?

nah, the love of it maybe

I presume I'm not the first to say East Dulwich?

er..............posting on a Forum is 'real life' and Facebook isn't? *scratches head and walks away

As I've said before.....have you noticed how many empty eateries there are on Lordship Lane most of the time?.....let's close half them down

Love and peace all i'm off to bed

Sean - this is a forum not a democracy, sorry for not being 'on side'. Read the post properly before jumping in next time eh?

And now the sensitivity...... why is "er, I was talking to Brendan" insulting??????

Sean - you didn't read my post properly, read it again slowly (that is patronising) and my point about the 'poor old dears' was in ICs.......er, that's ironic.....WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSh. I do give in.....the sincerity and worthiness of it all

Right, can I clarify, My post was addressing Brendan - who, trawl back up, first post just called me a "*$$X".

Er, I was talking to Brandon

What's so insulting about my post? The reaction I expect back is some counterargument as many who have disagreed with me have done . Being called a 8!%* and then a 'dick' does make you look insulting compared to them...er, and it's not 'big or clever'. Me patronising! You seem to like being Forum Sherrif on behalf of all 'those who are struggling with a financial problem' - were you voted inarticulate and insulting spokesman on their behalf or are you just taking on that roll in a rather patronising 'sticking up for the poor dears' manner? PMd you too

The newer of the two Willaim Hills - decent odds, plenty of Tv screens and some real people

Let's have another trendy knick-knack shop selling over priced tat to the smug of ED
