Ah-ha - are we out-ing the cloak as punishment? Splendid... I've always thought of out-ing as a serious forum crime, but a fun twist to use it as punishment for other serious crimes.


the cloak - if that is, in fact, your real name - a cursory glance at any thread on this site demonstates that keef and the above objectors basically are the forum.


Poorly thought out move, I'd say...

Polly D you are posting again! Does this means that you have settled into your new job? :)


Cloakie - have you learned your lesson now? This isnt anti-social forum. We LIKE each other, we argue and bicker but we dont slag each other off, much.

Quite, assuming that you have correctly interpreted Lozzyloz's post as anti SE5 snobbery, that is. I had hoped for a less hurtful explanation.


At least you are prepared to post honestly though rather than just ass kiss your fellow forumites.


Are you The Cloak *Bob*?

Me? The Cloak? Alas no. I would have been electronically outed by now.

You're right about the ass-kissing though. I do sometimes feel it my duty (along with a few Notable Others) to fly the flag of sarcasm, humbug and general misery amidst a sea of self-congratulatory backslapping.


Regards,

I would argue that "Numpty" is something of a term of endearment. Like, you're a bit silly but I like you anyway. As for "the biggest sausage", not really heard that one before, although I guess it could be like "you silly sausage" which again has slightly playful connotations.


Making out that someone works in SE5 though, that's bang out of order.

I disagree, Al. I think 'wally' also has endearing connotations. As in "ee's a bit of a wally, but ee's awright really"


However, if I were to say, for example, "ALAN DALE IS A BIT OF A PLONKER", (not that I would, of course), I think that would be slightly more derogatory.

    • Yiddish is written in Hebrew script, traditionally, so any attempt to use 'Roman' script will be transliteration, as noted. Hebrew script does not have vowels as such, so any vowels used will try to copy the Yiddish sound of the word. Bagel and Beigel are both correct transliterations of the Yiddish word. 
    • Have they still not fixed it? that's pretty shabby. I took this picture on New Year's Day and it's been like this at least since before Xmas.     
    • To be fair, if I saw you eating any of the parcels I'd have walked out. I noticed last night that the illuminated sign now describes this place as the POT OFFICE. Presumably THC vapes are more profitable than being a drop-off point for bloody Evri
    • Housebuilding isn't that profitable and housebuilders don't have social responsibilities. The affordable housing component is just a tax on new builds. It's a total failure by government - a fantasy belief that the private sector is going to solve the state's social housing crisis for free. It's like expecting Tesco to solve child humgrr by giving away a percentage of its products. It's not gonna work - it just slows down and disincentivises private sector construction of new housing. The only solution to the housing crisis is a massive increase in the supply of housing, not a couple of "affordable" flats in a new development. The state needs to solve the problem of NIMBYs (one of whom is prominent on this thread), get out of the way of private sector developers building private rentals and homes for sale, and borrow to build a huge amount of social housing.
