Taken from a thread a few nights ago bemoaning the demise of the lounge. Foxy goaded without reason (the post was in response to me for goodness sakes).

Come on Otta. I think you know damn well what comment.


You don't seem to have memory loss regarding something I may of said in some distant thread some time back

when you want to pick me up on something I said later that was perhaps contradictory.

Grow up ????. Both your offensive posts were taken down by the Moderators..

Talking about people being dead and a Rotting Fox Carcass in the Canal..


I did not threaten you with going to the Police..

In my PM. I said hate mail on Social Media is a crime and a Police matter.

What's with all the "post was in response to me for goodness sakes" ? Why feign surprise/innocence when there's been plenty of times you've aligned yourself with foxy on this forum as if you're some kind of posting duet.

Admittedly you didn't really do this in the past, you were funnier back then too. Less of a broken record with the same old shtick.

Regular readers will know what I mean.

Just to clarify. Foxy and I are not a "posting duet" - we have never met one another. Just because we agree on certain topics doesn't mean we are in a clique of any kind, and I'm sure foxy will agree with me on this point. I honestly do not mind people not liking me on here or finding my comments boring. But I take offence to anyone suggesting I've made the forum boring, as if I've gone out of my way to do it, that's hurtful. I've never intended to go out of my way to do that. Now how about we all get along again and put a line under all of this? I'll try and wear a clowns hat and blow a whistle to encourage friendly banter. Friends everyone?


Louisa.

FGS I happen to agree with eg. quids on loads of things but don't go around posting how it's us against the rest of you ad nauseum. And that's how it comes across when you both do that. No one cares that you share the same views on certain things, it's the way you go about acting like the persecuted. Yes of course we are all friends looking for banter & interesting things to read here.


Anyway, we've lost a great poster for good today and I'm sad about it.


Long live the lounge & all that.

But you can wish people die in a fire because they go to a bull fight you disagree with?


Loving your logic.


And having looked at your recent posts I am guessing that's where I've upset you. No idea where I've ignored you.


Either way I stand by my posts on that other thread, burning people to death because they disagree with your world view is extremist behaviour, it's not a normal thing to say.

And numbers how and in what way do I go about acting persecuted? I'm probably one of the least persecuted people, if I was persecuted I would be a shy retiring wall flower and that I most certainly am not. I know a lot of what people say on here is tongue in cheek banter, I do get that.

Otta

AqM's comments were in the context of people

Paying a lot of money to watch innocent animals

Being set light to and then slaughtered after

A terrifying ordeal in a bull ring.

There may be many people who wish the same

Fate to those people. See how they like it?

Foxy

Well Lou, maybe persecuted is not the right word, victimised perhaps?


I think its the way some of your posts come across as if its just you and... din din din ...'The Fox' against the...din din din... 'Rest of the Forum' type thing, thats all. Retiring wall flower, no, I didn't have you down as that :)

    • Gone to the better hunting grounds during this local ongoing dry spell.
    • The Dreamliner has an impeccable service history, you are more likely to get mugged on the way to the airport than having any issue with your flight, that's how safe it is!  Have a great trip.
    • Maybe. Does that kill grass? If so, possibly the same dog that has left its poo outside my house - pretty sure it's not fox poo.
    • Here you are, intexasatthemoment (you seem to have been in Texas for a very long time!) We went to three of the recommended places yesterday,  as they were all in the same road (just near Wallington)  and I needed to give the car a run to avoid another slap on the wrist from my garage (and another new battery). Here's my findings. BARNES Parking We thought we would go here first as it was the earliest to close on a Sunday (3pm). There was no apparent entrance or anywhere to park. One notice said do not park on grass verge, and another one said staff cars only! Flittons was opposite but I'd already passed the entrance, so I had to drive down the road, turn round at the next available place (covered in signs saying do not park here) and park in Flittons car park! Plants Barnes  specialise in hardy perennials, so that was basically what they had, but an excellent selection, and many more unusual plants (or at least, plants you probably wouldn't find in a garden centre), eg Corydalis,  lots of different varieties of Epimediums, Trollius, some lovely Phygelius, lots of different ferns). The plants were divided into sections according to whether they needed sun or shade or could cope with both. They had a particularly good selection of  shade loving plants. There was really useful information above  each group of plants, which meant you didn't have to look at individual labels. All the plants looked in good health and  very well cared for. They don't produce a printed catalogue, but they  said their plant list was online (I haven't looked yet). I assume most of  the plants they have at any one time are when it's their flowering season (if they flower). I wasn't intending to buy anything, though was very tempted, but I'd definitely go here again once I've sorted out my overgrown garden. Other Stuff Don't think they sell pots, compost, etc. No cafe/tea room and I didn't see a loo, but Flittons is just over the road. FLITTONS  Parking Easy to park Plants Sorry, but mostly terrible. There was one section with vegetables and the rest was flowering plants. There was a general feeling of delapidation. Some of what was on display was actually dead (surely it would only take a minute to remove dead plants) and a lot of the rest was very poorly maintained, eg gone to seed, weedy, apparently unwatered, or with a lot of dead leaves. There was a notice asking for volunteers to work there, so I can only assume they can't afford to pay staff. Other stuff There was a notice to a play barn (?) saying invited people only, so I think they must host kids' parties or something. They redeemed themselves with a cosy little cafe with savoury stuff, nice cakes, iced chai and oat milk, and a loo. Also a selection of books and CDs on sale for charity. If you want an Andrews Sisters CD, you can find one here. There is a small shop with gift shop type stuff and a display of the history of Flittons, which apparently is family owned since the sixties (I think it was). I suspect that the arrival of Dobbies down the road must have greatly affected Flittons' fortunes, which is sad. DOBBIES  Parking Easy in theory once you had navigated a rather narrow entrance, but it was very busy so it took a while to find a space. Plants  Lots of plants, well maintained but I imagine their turnover is high. Lots of nice bedding plants for hanging baskets, window boxes etc  to cater for all tastes (ie some of it wasn't mine, but fine if you like those horrid little begonias (my opinion only) but they did have some nice (in my opinion) stuff as well. I was tempted but decided to buy from North Cross Road market. Fair selection of climbers, various different Clematis etc. I'd be happy to buy plants from here. The prices seemed reasonable and they were in good condition. Other stuff  It's a big garden centre with all that entails these days, so a large area selling garden furniture and storage, tools, animal collars, pots, all the usual stuff you would expect. Very helpful staff. There's a cafe which we didn't check out, charging points for electric cars, a Waitrose (no idea how big, we didn't look). Only on our way out did we see that there was a drive through "express section" for compost etc, which was annoying as I wanted compost and hadn't seen any anywhere,  but I was getting tired by that time. Just Down the Road A ten minute drive away is Wilderness Island, a nature reserve in Carshalton, which is well worth a visit. We heard eleven different kinds of bird (according to Merlin) and saw a Kingfisher flying down the tiny river!
