I'm saying this as a man who knows Mike.


Oh, and thanks for spilling about my 'hunch'. Now everyone will recognise me as I lurch up and down Lordship Lane, doing my shopping.


PS - thanks for the sympathy, *Bob*.

So, would I be correct in assuming that some of you are implying that I'm a reincarnation of a former (unwelcome?) user?


If this is the case, and you're surreptitiously using that as a default excuse to ignore, or dismiss what I claim and opine on as false, then frankly that seems like the cowardly way out.


Is this how you treat all newcomers, even if they've tried to make amends for any indiscretion?


Oh and, *Bob*. You're quite right to point-out that I misspelt 'offence'. But if we're going to be pedantic, there's a 'y' in betchya.

I think it is fair to say that this is exactly how the forum will treat any newcomers who are as peculiarly, erm, forthright as you are. You are more than welcome to apologise for misjudging the tone of this forum and being very offensive, and I think Ladymuck was very gracious to accept so quickly. But just as you claim the right to speak so frankly, others have the right to find your apology insincere or simply inadequate.


No one on here asked for a superhero, Axeman, and no one elected you to the post of chief whip. So don't be surprised that you aren't getting a warm welcome.


(Yes Brum sweetie, I know. Sorry.)

No way Axeman's Mike - unless Mike has spent every hour god sends since his unfortunate Nunhead ramblings at the school of spelling and rhetoric and didacticism.


Axeman, you were quite rude, but no ruder I think than some people already on here - so I'm going to go against the flow and not tell you to f@ck off. I think you're right to say there's insincerity on here, but you're wrong to assume that nobody really likes each other - they do - and axe or no, they'll hack you to pieces if you suggest otherwise.


Anyway, for my part, welcome, with one massive caveat. Pronouncing yourself the Chief Whip and talk of "putting the stick about" is the kind of pomposity that suggests you're masturbating furiously in front of both a mirror and your computer screen. So, you know, don't.

Yes there probably is insincerity on this forum, and I've only ever been to a couple of the forum "socials" because smalltalk with strangers isn't really my bag. So I kind of understand what axeman is on about.


But plenty of people enjoy the drinks, so why criticise? I don't get it.

He is so obviously a troll....why pamper to that?

Oh dear Karter and LM. In one sentence you are both telling him to f off and in another there's no reason for him to be banned, it's a learning experience. This person doesn't want to exchange opinions with forumites. He just wants to wind people up. You two have had your happy pills far too early.

    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
    • Hello, I lost a babies blanket between Tessa Jowell and the Picture House on Lordship Lane 😞It is teal colour with the name Cillian embroidered on it.  If anyone sees/finds it please let me know.  Thank you! 
    • Good to hear Sue - I  love Franklin’s  Although to be fair it would be a mad world where decades old local institution couldn’t do much better than (gawd help us all) a generic Youngs pub  (I had better meals in that place when it was the vale and ran by the Murphia. And that was fairly poor food even then )
