Did you know they can cut down trees without warning?


Recommended Posts

Trees, I thought we were talking about trees and I still say the Victorians and more likely Edwardians with some of these trees did not give a fig about what they might look like or what size they might have grown to in 2007.


The infrastructure argument is for another thread surely? But I still think you see this issue with rose tinted optical ware. Although I do accept many of your point on this. Nice of me huh?


Finally, if the (Victorian or any other period) structure of one's house is threatened by a tree and one is unable to sell it either because one's buyer cannot get insurance cover, or a claim would take forever to sort out and you might want to move, and the buyer might think they are stuck with one insurance company and an uncompetitive premium which they cant change one might think the tree is inappropriate to it's surrounding? Or does the tree come first no matter what?

Fine. Discussion over, as I see no point in engaging with you any further on this issue. In fact I've thought that from when you started referring to me as 'that posh bloke'.

    • Hi - Have you seen the photo in nivag's post 'Lost cat at Dulwich Hamlet FC'? It looks as if it could be Gigi (assuming she's still missing).
    • Could that be Gigi?   See post of 8 Nov below.
    • As I may have said before those that knew him  at DC who I have met sat similar, but not sure if they are quoting the above contacts or first hand experience.  And of course that he has changed the pronunciation of his surname
    • A detailed account of Nigel Farage's alleged racist and neofascist behaviour while he attended Dulwich College appears in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2025/nov/18/deeply-shocking-nigel-farage-faces-fresh-claims-of-racism-and-antisemitism-at-school Obviously for most the relevant question is if these allegations are true, then is Farage a suitable person for public office? But for Dulwich local yokels (and tbh anyone that's already formed a firm opinion about Farage), the more interesting question might be whether Dulwich College incubated and tolerated pupils' racist and bigoted behaviour at the time? After all, the allegations include that NF and a number of other boys sang songs about gassing Jews and engaged in other bigoted behaviour, that teachers were either present or aware of that behaviour, and that nothing was done. It's remarkable that pieces of the reporting abour 40 years ago mirror some of the allegations about Dulwich College's reaction to some pupils' alleged sexist and predatory behaviour 4 years ago. Minimisation, dismissal, wilful blindness... https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/i-warned-head-of-dulwich-college-about-abusive-boys-five-years-ago-xkxgjftk8 https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest
