EDF GOLD - Memorable threads of years gone by


Louisa

Recommended Posts

A quality thread needs Jah Lush, Otta, ????, StraferJack, El Pibe, Jeremy and Mick Mac. And how could I forget bob and *Bob*, DulwichFox and Sue. Many more missed too. SimonM is greatly missed by everyone, and what?s happened to computedshorty?


*sigh*

A Million % right.


Easily, the wittiest and most consistently hilarious person on here over the last decade or so by a Country Mile.


I would love to know him in real life as he was superb.

I somehow missed Colin the Catflap Fitter thread. Sadly it disappeared before I saw it.


The privet hedge thread springs to mind and the Osbourne Stewart one as well.

And, as someone said before, the 'crushed and devalued' thread.

He wasn't in great health if I remember rightly. I do hope he's OK, as he was a truly amazing story teller. I loved his posts.

The Poo Thread!!! Aaahhh who remembers the Poo thread?


Quickly morphing from incredulous disgust to quick-witted hilarity it was clearly the best thread the forum had ever seen.


Such a shame that the poopetrator (who was easily identifiable at the time as being the stag of a stag do in the EDT) felt so panicked that he and his friends bullied and threatened the OP into having the thread removed.


Not before several thousand EDFers had read it of course.

    • The most recent one did, despite the council making it very difficult for anyone to object (which interestingly they were forced to change for the CPZ consultation and look how that went for them). I will dig out the responses for you when I have more time so you can enlighten yourself.   Ha ha...the language used by councils when they see the results of a consultation and need an out to ignore the views of locals...;-) Did you not notice how this only became a thing once the consultation had been run....one wonders why!? Earl you can bluster all you like but you cannot ignore the fact the council closed the junction to emergency services and put lives at risk and resisted all calls (from the emergency services) to open it for them. Surely you can't defend that  or are you willingly turning a blind eye to that too? Ha ha, which kind of begs the question then why so many of you get so vexed by One Dulwich? Surely you could compartmentalise their work if the above was true? I suspect it has a lot to do with the accountability that they are forcing and the fact some don't like it.
    • I believe around 57% of the 5,538 people who were part of the self selecting sample making up the original consultation, opposed the LTN. So just over 3,000 people. This was around 3 years ago now. I think there’s something like 40,000+ living across se22 and SE21 🤷‍♂️  The LTN is a minority interest at best. Whilst it’s an obsession for a small number on the transport thread who strongly oppose it, I suspect most locals quietly approve of the improvements made to that junction. …and we still haven’t heard who has supposedly been pressurising the emergency services and how (are we seriously going with the far left / the commies)? Is anyone willing to stand up and support the 'One' claim that people are partially covering their plates and driving through the filters due to inadequate signage? Again, it all sounds a little ridiculous / desperate. Feels like it may be time for them to start coming to terms with the changes.
    • Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?  
    • You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing.
