I have begun to hear from good sources a lot of things I don?t like the sound of.


Recommended Posts

aaahh I see macroban - I thought your initial post was a reference to a conversation you had with Ko and not a post. I just did a search and found the quote


A bit odd to drop that sentence at the end of a long post about pharmacies I agree - then again it was between 3 and 4:30 am this morning.. If I'm awake thinking about "stuff" at that hour I usually inflates it's importance


Any clarification Ko?

Give me strength. Would you like me to make it clearer and say "While I am on the topic of the PCT, I have begun to hear from good sources about various PCT plans which I don't like the sound of". I was going to repeat them but then thought the forum might not like me repeating rumours, even if they are from good sources. Would you like me to delete that sentence altogether if its confusing? I'll do that then. Sorry, but I'm not perfect. I was posting while having a bad bout of insomnia (hence being up at 3am!) I have never been a fan of the PCT, full stop. I don't like the way that, in my opinion, they frequently try to bulldoze their plans through without adequate consultation. I once met with the PCT and the senior person I met with reminded me of a dodgy salesman. He also kept looking blank whenever anything of substance was talked about.


Macroban, why pick out quotes and start a new thread? - its just as confusing and just odd!!!

Macroban, If you didn't understand the point, just say so. I'd have been happy to clarify and edit things to make it clearer if that was the case.


In my opinion, your thread takes a quote and confuses things further - at least for me :)). Lets make it easier. From reading the title of this new post, I didn't even realise it was about something I said. I don't open all threads, but luckily I did open this one and so I could clarify.

The message is:

That there are known knowns,

There are things we know that we know,

There are known unknowns,

That is to say there are things that we now know, we don't know

But there are also unknown unknowns,

There are things we do not know we don't know

And each year we discover a few more

Of those unknown unknowns.

Outrageous! I've been lounged without knowing it! I have just stumbled across this at 5.57AM. I was wondering where this thread had gone. Are you all trying to confuse me? ;-) And to think, I wouldn't have even noticed this if the BBC Gardening board wasn't closed...


Well Mr Admin, I suggest you unlounge this right now, yes right now before the dark forces come to get you!


Oh, hang on, actually my confusion is becoming unconfused! I've not been lounged! It wasn't my thread to begin with!! Phew. Well that's better then! I will happily tell you everything I've heard next time I see anyone! Does anyone know what time the gardening board opens? I always think they go to bed too early and sleep in far too much.

    • Thanks for stating the bleeding obvious
    • Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄
    • Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.  
    • Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
