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?

      4+ Assessment Advice for Parents

      By Lord Pencilton · Posted

      It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️

      GALA 2026

      By kiera · Posted

      Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
