I agree with Keef completely. Although he knows I do.


As an outsider who has nevertheless been close to and associated with poms all my life and lived here for nigh on a decade I can honestly say that your adherence to outdated and sometimes mean spirited ideas of class is something that lets you down as an otherwise pleasant enough nation. This goes for both sides of the spectrum.


I do have to caveat that though by saying that for the economically excluded, of which there is a significant population in Britain, the idea of belonging to a class is possibly all they have.


I couldn?t give a dam about Winterbottoms mind you.

You were having a go at Woof about his punctuation - specifically, you said he was using too many apostrophes. I believe you had actually counted them, and said there were nine.


Not sure why this was an issue for you, but I just wanted to point out, in an equally pedantic way, that an apostrophe is this: ' and I didn't see any of those in Woof's post.


However an ellipsis (which Woof was using perfectly correctly as far as I can see) is this: ...


Clearer?

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
