err... good spot Brendan!


And as I've said before, it's not litter, it's "kindly leaving something worthwhile to read for the next person"


But thanks Michael - I know have inspiration for my new forum ID


"MrFlogandburnanybodywhodrivestoasupermarkettodotheirshoppingratherthanfloggingupanddownLorshipLanewithashoppingtrolly"


Oh Mr Administrator???!!!



PS I flog up and down Lordship Lane without a shopping trolley. And I live further away. And up the hill (he says smugly)

You're obviously lucky he didn't stab you *Bob*, I hear he does that if he feels that he's been dissed.


Alan, my wedding was fab thanks, but Polly was a blushing bride, and so in my opinion, more deserving of the accolade.


Oh, and your mum sounds very sweet! You've obviously inherited a lot of your personality from her.

Mike


I nearly typed a whole bunch of stuff that you would have loved - but let's be fair to the thread title and we'll take our whimsy elsewhere (or at least I would if I had as much time as I used to)


One of my favourite threads of the years was the "Enemies of Reason" thread... plenty of heat under that one


I also got involved in a political/economic debate with downsouth and Marmora Man (which somebody claims I lost!!) which had plenty of back and forth but also nuff spect

Tanks a million Sean for gettiing this back on track (and diverting some heat off your fair self) One of my favourite threads was the "ED is becoming less diverse as a result of recent Demog. changes" one, because it showed how balanced a discussion the forum could generate...er, until someone mentioned ethnic cleansing.

Having had a look back, I like this rather bizarre thread about Snorky... Who was 140183???


Most of all I like the summer trip the forumites took to Rancho Relaxo (was quite funny as Sean got well in to the whole cowboy thing, even though it wasn't that sort of Ranch)! ;-)

For cats everywhere, EDF 2007 was a fateful year - bringing as it did the exploitation an electronic weapon against their perpetual quest for freedom. Until EDF, public attempts to restrict cat liberty had been limited mainly to flyers attached to tree trunks and lamposts. Cats had long been adept at tearing down and defacing these under cover of darkness. But EDF offered the cat captors a new tool. Emboldened by notable early successes, "lost" cat threads soon gained momentum and by Q4 were trending up 143% on a sequential quarterly basis.


The "lost" cats, desperate for privacy, attempted diversionary abductions of welly boots and even, on one occasion, a cornet, but these attempts were soon foiled, and the cat owners of East Duwlich were once more triumphant. Eventually, the cat owners felt confident enough to announce their own organisation publicly, and formed CatWatch, to ensure that all cats everywhere would be watched all the time. The compulsory wearing of loud bells, ID tags and high vis collars for all cats were proposed, and cats were banned from leaving their houses without the permission of local CatWatch enforcers, who by this time had taken to their distinctively intimidating uniform of brown cardigans and comfy slippers. If cats were spotted at liberty they were to be lured into Catwatch holding centres and detained without milk until "collection" by the Brown Cardies.


EDF 2007 was, for cats everywhere, a vision of the future - a human eye glaring down on the feline face for ever.

For me the Occasion of the Year was on March 08 at 11:21AM. The The Willow Armed Robbery / gun crime in ED thread went so far off topic when people began talking about Polly's got some engagement news that the Administrator gave up trying to stop people from chatting on serious threads and The Lounge was created.


It's amusing that a Google search on Lounged shows the East Dulwich Forum at the top, with the discussion Re: Vomit on the 176 (Lounged).

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
