I thought the purpose of a forum was to air your opinion about local 'stuff', spread some words of wisdom. Educate people. Forgive me here, but I have an opinion you and others disagree with, so we discuss it. Isn't that my right? You may not agree with me, but you have no right to tell me not to have that opinion.


The 'local economy', as you put it, contains various long standing businesses, the vast majority of whom do not even make trendy newspaper articles about the next hip area of London to live in. By all means buy your cheese whenever you like, but seriously, standing outside and queueing for it on such an obviously busy day of the year as Christmas Eve is about as decadent in its unashamed indiscreet nature, as one could possibly get!


Unlike some of the sheep on here who have agreeable opinions on everything, like minded to the extreme, I choose to have my own opinions. Why does this bother you so? I think people nowadays are too quick to not express an opinion in case it hits home, which let's face it, on here it does. SOME of those offended by my 'look at me' observations are in fact guilty of this behaviour themselves, hence the disproportionate level of offence taken. Anyway, happy new year to everyone.


Louisa.

Lou


You've become a sad parody of yourself


People are offended because you're offensive


Whichever version of 'how you see it' you post, it's the same boring 'me clever/you stupid' stuff.


And you ask 'why does it bother you so?' I wonder why you don't ask yourself the same question.


Leave people alone, they work hard, let them be.

Seabag,


How can someone possibly be offended at an observation about buying cheese? Surely only those who partake in said activity could possibly be the ones offended. Lots of people insinuate I'm a lonely alcoholic, now that's offensive, but I don't choose to take offence because I know it's not true! People only take offence when the cap fits. It's not about me being right and them being wrong, it's about my observation of what I believe to be a peculiar activity. As I said, buy your cheese whenever and wherever you like, none of my business! But others have on this thread already agreed with my observation so it can't be entirely unjustified? I let people be, they just choose to take offence when I'm not even talking about them? Bizarre.


Louisa.

You know and I know and everyone else knows what you're digging at people about. It's your same old 'me clever/them stupid'. It's boring class wars in some tedious trope of endless digging and undermining of what you perceive as the fight against something you don't like or get.


It's got boring, but you keep at it, because you get off on it.


Clap clap, sad, bravo.


Next?

So if it's none of your business, why do you spend so much of your time slagging off people who don't shop/behave the way you claim to?


It's boring, tedious and offensive.


Why don't you find some other forum to voice your views, and give us all a rest?


ETA: And who else on the thread has agreed with you, apart from the person who seems to agree with you on everything?

Don't fall for that - always slam the phone down first :)


Although pressing the end button just isn't the same as slamming an old analogue phone down on its stand :(

Never used the carpet shop but have reluctantly stopped using Health Matters as for some reason they rarely seem friendly. Got a bit weary of feeling like I'm being talked down to, lectured or reprimanded. Get enough of that at work, thank you.

I've never gone back to the carpet shop since they sold me a bit of Axminster and it was terrible in a fondue.


(Just kidding - they've been perfectly nice and helpful to me the two times I went in. And I'm a surly old git to begin with).

Have you not had a similar experience in the past?

If so... why go back? ::o

I understand the new cheese shop is to have a moisture / humidity controlled environment, a bit like Neal's Yard Dairy in Borough (but slightly more advanced) which is pretty special.


It will be a unique cheese emporium of some standing, owned and run by a local resident.


What's not to like (unless you're the guy from another cheese shop nearby)


I like cheese!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
