The fact you didn't see them means they did their job correctly 🤔🤓

I'll admit that humour (even poor humour)/intonation/etc are often lost in email/digial screen....but blimey, you must be an absolute hoot at parties....

LOL. I assumed "of colour" was in the same bracket as "coloured" - i.e. it's a no-no...


I'm inclined to call this a "stealth chopper". And I'm very curious to hear more!

It wouldn't have been funny however you had said it.

Your comedy bar is set fine I reckon.

But others? righteous comments might cause one to question that, bravo you for openly asking!

I?m a hoot for sure but given your past posts and your overtone of racism you aren?t funny and it wasn?t funny. It was childish.

I don't normally rush to the cat's defence but a bit of an over-reaction here.


I spend time challenging those who make the silly "oh that is politically correct" comments, which essentially belies their casual homophobia, transphobia, racist, etc etc views. But they live in Bromley where that is the norm. I get an old school friend talking about 'virtual signalling' and having a go at the BBC and many of the adverts for dis-proportionally using ethnic minorities, something that I don't notice or even care about. And again I think middle England casual racism.


But on this occasion I just think it is banter/stirring up debate. No need to be so po faced.


I could do the same in respect to not using terms such as black sheep of the family, the dark side etc etc.


I do cringe at times with Seth MacFarlane, who seems to do his upmost to use stereotypes and the like. His defence of the reference to Down's Syndrome and Sara Palin was that he is an equal opportunity offender. But I look back on some of the terms I would have used, thinking they were quite harmless in previous years, with a bit of a shudder. https://abcnews.go.com/WN/sarah-palin-family-guy-controversy-rages/story?id=9898355


Sorry this thread has mutated. See what you have done Cat?

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      By FellbriggSam · Posted

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.
