I think you're more interested in those figures than I am, Alan.


Aaanyway.. I'd love to stay and shoot the breeze, but seeing as it's a nice day, I won't we wasting it by working. Off to meet some fellow 'hobbyists' for some lunch (tax deductable) and a few drinks. Enjoy your day!

"I love the way this started as a really serious thread about a really serious topic, and just went off the rails so quickly!"


It may be that the serious discussion was exhausted pretty quickly. However, I find it hard to issues like this seriously when people lurch into making blanket allegations about the social behaviour of different classes. It makes me ANGRY! ;-) (<- just for Mo)

I agree believe it or not. I, who consider many gay and lesbian people among my friends, think it is a unique group for cutting through all classes/races. And I think Vauxhall is an interesting case study in this discussion. It seems, save the recent, undeniable scurge of GHB, the community there (representing a lovely cross section) gathers to enjoy a night out and causes no trouble similar to what we were discussing earlier. It's just interesting to me in light of other conversations.


I'll throw in the interesting story from The Times yesterday indicating the more wealthy postcodes have far more issues with alcoholism and alcohol related anti-social behvaviour.


All germain to the topic, which did come off the rails. Oops, no reference to that other thread Frisco :)

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money
