After spending a really tedious day at work I may have (mistakenly) decided to read some threads other to my normal ones...



On god's great earth, how depressing are a lot of these threads.


People moaning and whinging about really petty things - just reading them has made me want to reach for the gin.


Why is everyone so moany? I thought ED was a happy place? (Or is this only when fuelled by promises of ED Drinks and Curry nights).


Surely everyone should be thankful that they have plenty of friends, plenty of food and drink, and a lovely area to live in.


Now please... be thankful and stop moaning! :))

Good news is not news. Also, when people post very positive experiences of local shops etc., lots of other people get suspicious and sarcastic.


I do think there's a lot of complaining going on though. Don't know why.


On a positive note, I had dinner at Indian Mischief the other night, and it was great. Service friendly if not the speediest, but I don't mind that, and the food was excellent and the bill reasonable. (I don't work there).

I'm with VBC, I think for 2011 we should all find our inner Oddball - heed his wise words.


"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?"

and again on the ed good deed thread, moaning aboout the moaning - love it.


I do agree a bit though, the forum is in a bit of a doom and gloom dip at the moment but i'm sure we'll come out the other end soon.

    • At it's peak I recall 16 Furkin pubs, all brewing their own.    The first pub was the Goose, followed by the Ferret, the wonderful Pheonix, Fox and one other, not necessarily in that order, when I discovered them. I did all 16 on public transport in one day with a group many years ago, if Guinness had a record this would be one, as everyone else would hire a minibus. Reverting to Wiki, it maxed out with 19 home brew pubs, and many more not brewing before the end: chain was established in 1979 by David Bruce as Bruce's Brewery, the Firkin Brewery grew as a chain of mostly brewpubs offering cask ale. It was acquired by Midsummer Leisure in 1988, Stakis Leisure in 1990 and then by Allied Domecq in 1991; by 1995 the chain had 44 pubs, 19 of which brewed beer on site.[1] In 1999, Punch Taverns bought the entire chain and the rights to the Firkin brand,[2] and then sold 110 of the pubs to Bass, leaving 60 Firkin pubs under Punch ownership.[3] The brewery side of the chain was wound up, and in March 2001 Punch announced that the Firkin brand was to be discontinued.[4] 
    • Hello! I’m looking to collect some pallets and MDF boards from anyone in the area who has some and no longer needs them?   It would also be a huge bonus if anyone has a PA sound system I could rent/borrow/buy off them.   Thank you in advance!
