Unfurl your spittle flecked flag and get stuck into this utterly delightful slag fest - it has all the essential required to run ad nausem

* A contentious subject

* A local business

* Newly registed randoms posting

* Randoms being accused of having an agenda

* Busybodies with an agenda

* Busybodies without an agenda

* unhappy former employees

* Racism (accusations of)

* Money issues

* Personal vendettas

* Personal abuse

* Plenty of back story - most of which is irrelevant but adds colour

* A smattering of the usual suspects showing a truly scarey inability to see where lines should be drawn

* Nutters

* Alchohol

Most participants involved in this thread should hang their head with shame

This un is worth a scan, if only for the lobotomised habitual offenders popping their heads up like an EDF whack a mole competition

If Jesus did come back to earth and had to read these threads, I think he would have abandoned his mission to rescue humanity and fuck off back to his dads place

Agreed. Depressing to the point that Ted Max daren't write of the sheer hopelessness of it. The former reminds me of the those school fights where some peacemaker steps in to break it up but gets whacked for his efforts. So then he starts too, his mate joins in and before you know it you have a Western style cowboy brawl where everyones scrapping yet everyone's forgotten the original point.

For a brief moment you think you can add some erudite and incisive lines of wisdom to tie it all up. But then you realise.... it's hopeless....and you get back to something more important in the real world instead.

Absolute genius post. Encapsulates EDF in one fell swoop. Guilty as charged with several other offences to be taken into consideration both here and elsewhere.

Is there going to be a Waitrose or not?

Coming soon, EDF, the soap opera.

Nah, retro is the future - do it Sweeney style - JPS specials, lots of bad haircuts, neat Whiskey swilling, Big Motors , blags and slags

Excellent spot Woodrot, enjoyed reading that. Fely inclined to add a comment at the end, simply because I felt sorry for the ex managers, and sort of wanted to say "I told you so".

[reeko]

Hey Otta, that was EXACTLY what that thread needed - someone chipping in with "I told you so" - completely raised the tone of the whole debacle.

[Chillaxed]

I wasted an hour at work this morning reading those threads. Thank you, EDF, and thank you Admin for keeping the flashy stuff to a minimum and therefore making the Forum reasonably work-friendly.

Glad you thought so.

Can't get much more retro than Corrie.

Jeez Woody, I don't know about hanging my head in shame, but that is a great thread for the local reader. If we only ever had threads you liked we all be talking about the 101 best ways to dispose of a cat or preferably cats!

Where should lines be drawn exactly in the discussion of the sorry saga of The Cherry Tree/Vale?

I'm genuinely interested to know your view here!

We can always rely on woody to remind us how shallow and futile we all are.

The back story stretches into the 70s and I would spill it for a fee

Although I do need these kneecaps...

Ah go on.

You know you want to.

I'm sure you can get great replacement kneecaps these days!

[Sue]

Go on Go on Go on Go on

etc

ETA: Actually I'm getting slightly worried about my kneecaps too.

Beginning to think being "out" on the forum isn't that great an idea :))
