Hope it's not an unprecedented crisis crisis, otherwise I'll be like so reaching out. With sprinkles.

OK I'll bite.


Why should women have to identify their marital status by their title (Miss/Mrs) when men don't (Mr)?


I would genuinely appreciate an answer.


Sue (Ms).

It's very confusing for us blokes Sue.


Years ago I worked with a married lady who wanted to be called Miss as she wasn't a "man's appendage" so Mrs upset her.


However getting rid of Miss will ruin the opening lines of the Dead Parrot Sketch

"Excuse me Miss"

Gruff voice "what do you mean Miss?"

"I'm sorry, I have a cold"

So which is annoying you most: Mrs, Ms, Miss or Mr?

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
