Hi Admin, please could you lock or hide the Hillsborough thread in the lounge?


http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,258324,page=1


I started it to have a discussion which today I'd put in the drawing room. It was meant as a serious question, to be discussed without going in to whether the disaster was a bad thing, but it's clearly too emotive to be discussed that way.


In recent days I asked for it to be closed, but then I backtracked, because I stumbled across an interview on the radio which was relevent to my original question.


I wish I hadn't back tracked now, because now it seems to be going down a road that a thread about a disaster really shouldn't be going down. I've been accused of not respecting the families and their loss, but it is because I very much do that I don't want that thread turning in to a pathetic point scoring / insult throwing mess.


As the OP, I'd be grateful if you could just put an end to it.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
