dear fellow forum-ites


just a quick "farewell" message as tosh and i are heading west to the new world (new england to be exact) to raise our kids in the shadows of new hampshire's white mountains. it's been a great pleasure logging on for my forum "fixes" these past couple of years. i have to say that my new local forum (from what i've seen thus far) just doesn't compare. but then, perhaps i will feel less in awe of the incredible wit of the ED forum regulars and therefore more at home there! we yanks just don't seem to have the mental inventiveness that you all have. (see how i can blame my bluntness on my nationality?)


be well, all!


signing off now...

Oh..


Give it a few months "in the shadows of new hampshire's white mountains"


Soon enough he'll be back for a bit of "EDF sunshine"


What's the internet for after all ?


But maybe though....


...he's being given a "new identity" & his Boston based " Fed " handlers won't allow him to blow his cover.

What with New Hampshire being the safest state in the US, it all makes sense


I suppose though ,at least he has got "this" to look forward to



"Pwwwaacck..."


*blows duck call thingy, ponders what he might have done*



Good luck anyway... "they're behind you"


( just kiddin" )

thanks guys. we do have 12 bedrooms and a guest cottage over there so plenty of space for a forum field trip... (yes, i know, now i'm just bragging... but that's what you get in NH for selling a house in ED). sorry.


and yes, i could log on from the US, but i think it will just make me sad and homesick, all you clever clever people having monthly drinks and exchanging witty banter. whilst i have earnest, heartfelt conversations all the time.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
