I propose a 1 month ban on posting about Green and Blue

[jollybaby]

It may be just me but I'm fed up of logging into the forum and seeing posts and posts about Green and Blue. Do we not have anything else to discuss on here? Can we not just let them pick themselves up from the drain/repossession saga and get on with it?

I'm sure I'm going to be shot down here - 'free speech' 'open forum' 'you don't have to read them' etc etc but I can just imagine the team at Green and Blue looking at this site and thinking 'oh god it's those bloody moaning forum people again'.

let's give them a break if only for a few weeks.

There's loads of other threads, the forum is hardly dominated by Green and Blue :)

Blimey, there's been two discussions about them in a month. There were four or five about the election, usually a few about F**tons, Le Chandelier etc and there's always ones about curry/thai/chinese restaurants... are you suggesting we ban those too? I think you'll find that Green & Blue team get a huge amount of support from the bloody moaning forum people, just because one person has an issue with the manager doesn't mean that everyone does (even though that's what you've seemed to have read into it).

As for "Do we not have anything else to discuss on here?"... there's about 250 pages of topics, that's about 7,500 things for you to discuss. Or feel free to start your own but just don't make it about Green & Blue, like this one.

Just trying to put a realistic perspective on it.

Sorry just seems like an awful lot more than that. Of course everyone is free to post on whatever they want - I don't have to read the threads I don't fancy after all.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Ps. another thread on G&B had been started today that seems to have disappeared- I'm not totally mad and plucking this out of the air!

I'm with JollyB on this one. A moratorium on G&B. Damn their eyes.

Seriously, there's far too much attention paid to them. They're likely to get flash if it goes on.

[KalamityKel]

Might aswell ban everything else too while we're at it *sighs and rolls eyes*

I'm fed up with people talking about Green & Blue, so I'm going to start a thread about Green & Blue to tell everyone how fed up I am with talking about Green & Blue... :-S

What Keef said.

(which is what Keef normally says about other peoples' posts ;-))

Right - now I'm going to enter into the spirit of things by having a moan about Green and Blue.

Seduced into their shop yesterday by a large display of Breton cider near the open door, and bought a bottle to enjoy in the sunshine.

It stood on the counter dripping wet, having come out of a container of water.

It continued to stand there after I paid for it, whilst both I and the G&B bod stared at it.

Then he just said "We don't have bags."

Erm, maybe you could have put a bit of tissue paper round it like wot you do for the wine, or doesn't a ?3.55 bottle of cider warrant the expense?

Carried it away with wet hands while it dripped down my clothes. Preferable to having it drip all over the contents of my handbag.

Great.

Maybe they thought I was riff-raff and undeserving of a bit of decent service.

Shame, I've always like Green and Blue.

I think possibly it was because he came over all a bit queer, and was all of a doo-dah.

Though of course I could be wrong.

[Sue]

Ah that makes it all quite clear

As long as he didn't have the colly-wobbles in his tummy, that's alright.

[Cassius]

I was going to say something about Green and Blue but as it's banned.........

Probably not my brightest idea! I just had a moment of madness when I saw someone had started another thread going over recently discussed topics (since removed). Maybe should have tried the more subtle - I think you'll find that this has been discussed in depth here - link to thread- approach, or nothing at all. Damn broken my ban . . . . . . .
