Absolutely. I would feel better about the forum lists if they didn't have "top 10" in the title. That's just too limited. Today's top 10 might not be tomorrow's top 10.

Lists remind me about the good and bad things I have seen. Good to ponder and provoke. As a result of seeing some of the films mentioned on the film list I have made a list of DVDs I want to rent.

And another result of seeing some of the theatre plays people have seen is that I realise just how little money I earn being self employed which has depressed me for the day....


Top Ten Reasons to ban lists?

1. No they're not.

2. They allow us to see what others tastes are, and how they vary from or are similar to our own.

3. This may lead to us 'copping off' with them.

4. Heck maybe even settling down and raising a coupla kids.

5. It allows free rein for those endowed with the quirkiness gene.

6. Sometimes contributors take a sideways look at the subject under discussion.

7. Often with added wryness.

8. Though of course if unchecked 5, 6 and 7 may lead to zaniness.

9. And nobody wants that, do they?

10. Perhaps four pounder may be right, we should be cautious about these things.

This is in my "Top 10 Funniest Threads"



It starts and ends at this though.


The thing that bugs me most about "top 10 blah blah blah" is,


who on earth can remember 10 of anything?


I struggle if I put more than 5 types of alcoholic drinks on my shopping list... (?)


The mouthwash and floor cleaner sections usually lead me astray...

    • The link below has further information suggesting that the shop demolition and square redevelopment is funded separately from the station upgrades, so will go ahead:   https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/peckham-rye-stations-step-free-upgrade-has-been-put-on-hold-82360/ 
    • Last time the toilets were out of operation in the station M&S we were all told to go out and up to Sainsbo! Certainly didn't close (I'm not suggesting that's the thing the library should do!)
    • Was it the two proxy votes that had swung it for Cllr McAsh in the first round? Interesting that he lost by two votes in the second. One wonders what the next move for Cllr McAsh is and whether the infighting will continue between the various factions within Southwark Labour?
    • Has anything emerged as to how the reported misinterpretation of rules ruling out proxy votes occurred, or what the specific fault was?  I've found and looked through https://labour.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Labour-group-model-standing-orders-2023.pdf, which afaics seems to be a prime relevant document.  It allows for local council Labour groups making minor amendments to cater for their council's particular form of organisation.  I've not seen any _explicit_ mention of proxy voting in the model SOs document itself.  I'm  attaching my notes on it.     re_Labour-Group-Model-SOs.txt
