There's nothing better than waking up in the morning to the joyful sounds of Spring...the lesser spotted Bitter Blue aka Bertie, with it's cheeky little Citeh! Citeh! mating call...it's a feisty little blighter, very territorial and doesn't get along with the neighbouring birds...once thought to be close to extinction, it's numbers are increasing and can now be seen quite regularly coming out of the woodwork...

Atila can be quite funny though...as can Hatche... erm...Jimmy Two Times. In fact I think the pair of them are quite hilarious and misunderstood a lot of the time. But then, having (I am persistently told) a very strange sense of humour myself, who the hell am I to comment - eh?


Bye the way, nice to see another Man. U supporter today (hello Red Devil). Is that a grand total of 3 Man. U supporters on this thread now? (Excluding closet supporters of course)?

I'm afraid that, in one part of your post at least, you are misguided LM.

You are right Jah.


I have to say...this isn't the most welcoming of threads though - generally. It should be a nice friendly thread and included in that should be plenty of friendly piss-taking about each other's teams...all part of the fun I would have thought. Certainly, whenever I have piss-taked (piss-took?) I have meant it in jest. But then one man's joke is another man's abuse and vice versa...oh Lord I'm wittering on...I'll just go away...

Absolutely. Supporting a team with no serious history of achievement in 135 years, I have always assumed that this was the whole point of football.


Maybe the occasional serious point being thrown in just to keep the thread on track.



It does smell a bit of old pants and curly-wurly's doesn't it?


Some of the cast-list on here seem fine on other threads but it all gets a bit Just-William (on a good day) and Lord of the Flies (on a bad day)


Seems to have quietened down of late tho


Anyway - Arsenal for the double

That's because Atila's gone. He was just one big wind up merchant from start to finish. I'm sure there were a lot of us who did find it very hard to ignore his constant baiting and the result was it turned into a school playground with him playing the part of Biffa Bacon. I sincerely hope he won't be back.

I wasn't having a pop at you LM by saying I don't advertise my support of MU all the time.Your response suggests to me that you thought I was. I wasn't, honest!

    • I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!  
    • Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter. 
    • So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
    • I would hope that is extremely unlikely. If people accidentally vote for someone, that's their own fault, isn't it?
