  1. Far as I can tell the forum doesn't support racism against ethnic minorities. Your post was probably removed due to potential issues relating to the establishment in question. If one staff member screwed up maybe the others shouldn't be implicated.
  2. It might have been the Russians. I mean they were to blame for everything a few weeks ago...
  3. Continuing roadworks on Grove Lane whilst all this goes on of course. Great fun!
  4. Yep, if this isn't due to an emergency it certainly is dreadful planning. Seems to me that you won't find out (at least without modern tech) that there's a closure until you become part of the related jams. Would've been good to get Camberwell Grove open before this started surely...?

That's mental. As someone who probably shouldn't be considered 100% the full ticket I use the M word every day and in a variety of contexts, and I think it's very rarely offensive. Only if used against those who are vulnerable to the negative effects of mental illness (of which I understand little - perhaps that's important) or intimately associated with them by their family, social, treatment, work or other institutional networks should it be considered offensive. I do like using the word "gay" in reference to lame acts, which isn't very PC but I don't really care. Perhaps that's because I'm not a big fan of homosexuality. The loose use of the word "lame" which I just repeated is probably more offensive to me when I think about it!
  6. Take it that's "Dates," right? Tawed

    Brexit View

    If you're a remainer (I'm not but most of you on the EDF are of course) then I'd say this is a very good thing. Feels like where we finally need to be after a crazily simplistic vote. Yes or no, imagine the arrogance of that stupid man Cameron, who thought he had it in the bag so much as to guarantee himself a win on a referendum that would put the issue to bed forever. He didn't half read the people wrong.... EDOdlie says both the main parties appear to have very similar views on Brexit, but I don't think this is right. And I don't think that there's internal consistency on both sides either* So if the Commons are to influence the final negotiations (which sound very complicated!) surely this is a chance for democracy to prove itself? *Please say how this might be "remedied"
  9. https://www.screwfix.com/p/mapei-ultraplan-3240-self-levelling-compound-25kg/4959f JB, someone I know used this one and the result was good and still is. They did it themsleves too - good luck!
  10. Most people (if they want) can make a curved end knife - which can be lethal enough on its own - into a pointed blade. I'm still positive about the petition though - well done. I carried a knife when I was younger, and even used it once. I was also injured in a knife fight. Knives are very useful indeed but they are horrid for many...
