Eh? I think not! What makes you think this is where their proceeds are going, Eric?

You're point almost won me over, Eric, until I spotted you're use of 'their' instead of 'They're'.

I'm common as muck, me, but even I wouldn't f*ck sh!t up along them lines.

instead of you're use of 'their' instead of 'They're'?


I actually believe that nobody has bothered to report this (god knows I'm the only one in the North Cross Road or top of Barry Road area who will complain about noise polution.) I want whatever the rest of the community has which keeps them so freakishly quiet & care-free.


Report these guys to the police at once.... They haven't come for me yet.

No you're not - I'm in the North Cross Road area and I complain about noise if it happens frequently and loudly from the same place.


Wouldn't report the dishcloth people though unless I actually felt threatened by them or felt they were involved in some criminal activity rather than just selling overpriced tat.

Alot of people have felt threatened (& have actually been threatened). That's the only reason I've brought it up.

Those lines was belongful to me. personal.

So them was me own, so these lines was mine and I writ them so those went from someone else's those to my them.

Simplication itself as Plato once remarked. Or was it Sophocles?

Quod erat demonstrandum as Popeye once had it.


Edited because I disspelled 'demonstrandum', to leave it in statue would have demined my point and make me look knowledgephobic

I had one of these round when I lived on Landcroft Road last year. He was persistent, in the end I had to close the door in his face, and he kicked something outside and shouted "you queer, you f***ing poof!". So I opened it and challenged him, and got into a big argument which involved him telling me "it's not Adam and Steve, it's Adam and Eve", which is such a classic retro bit of homophobic abuse I almost invited him to an 80s theme party.


He also said "I don't like you bringing that s**t around me" to which I replied "yeah, but YOU were the one knocking on MY door", and he started getting aggressive and only backed down when my (somewhat larger) flatmate appeared at the door to see what all the shouting was about.


I called the police and they apparently informed the community wardens and asked neighbours, but nothing ever came of it.

Not sure about anyone else, but this to me seems the least truthful post since the one of those ones I put on the song game thread.

If it happened, it's been described in the schumckiest possible way.

If, as I believe it's an invention then it's as dopey and dreary an invention that ever there was.

No offence.

Actually, balls to that, every offence possible. Huh.

Interesting, I thought I'd make a little contribution to this forum as a relevant incident had happened. A few weeks later, I come back to find this little bit of unpleasantness.


Well it happened. Not sure what was implausible, though I probably felt a lot more fearful and came across less confidently than the telling implies. As someone later said, I was just trying to describe the incident with a little levity. But again, I'd be interested to know which part of it you think didn't happen, or what leads you to believe the entire incident is fictional.


The incident was dealt with by Catherine Pearson, TDC 220426 at Walworth Police Station, who sent me a statement to fill out. There's probably a crime number but I don't have that to hand. But put it this way, if the incident didn't happen, then I told an awful lot of lies to at least 2 police officers and made a untruthful witness statement.


I might just gently make the final observation that people who post in such a confrontational way on internet forums often do so because of their inability to stand up to people in real life. The fact you've made 7,000 posts in this forum alone can only add to this impression. However, I could be wrong, and if you're man enough you can come round to my flat (pm me for my contact details), tell me again why you think I'm a liar, and then I'll show you the emails from the police (and if it didn't get lost/binned in my last flat move, any documentation I can find). Deal?

    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
