I've known for a while that a couple of long-term regular posters have decided to stop posting on the forum...cold turkey permitting.

But what I've just realised is that this could be part of a bigger 'suicide pact' cell. So far Missing in Action since the summer we have...


Jah Lush

Otta

Have they been radicalised by a rival forum? Perhaps enticed away with promises of becoming moderators, or in Jah's case a bottle of JD and a packet of Marlboro's.

This is serious. Remember, just like the ravens of the Tower of London, once Otta leaves the Forum, the end is nigh.

We need to find them!...

The forum has become a farce... I understand that whenever a new business opens, the first thing their neighbours usually say to them is "don't even bother looking at the forum". It's a shame because it used to be a valuable forum. Now it's just a joke, with the same old faces spouting illogical nonsense, that you can't even argue with because THEY JUST MAKE NO BLOODY SENSE AT ALL...


Quite an apt thread to bow out on. Independence day too. The signs were there!...

Not met since Feb 2017. and very sparse in 2016.

Though I've spotted a few of the hard core dining in Private.

Selective few.

The plot thickens. And if Michael P's last post isn't code for Once one gives away one's Billy bookcase, one has given up on life* then I don't know what is.

They realised they could not break The Fox and had nothing else to post about.


Do you hear Woodwork creaking..? Lol

I dunno. I always felt that sense of an inner circle left a lot of people feeling like outsiders and as though they had less right to speak. Perhaps it will become more welcoming.


Could also be that forums have had their day. Most people have moved on to social media.

Is there an East Dulwich Facebook (for example) page?


I know there is one for Nunhead which seems to be quite widely used.

That happened with my old favourite rugby forum (gwladrugby.com)a few years ago now.

(it did return under a new name)


Anyway if you go write a nice goodby letter - like this one to Trump - note the first letter in each paragraph

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
