Well done you - you spotted a cyclist doing something stupid (and it is stupid to ride at night without lights)


The other day, I spotted a man in a van doing something stupid. He was driving his van, on his phone and nealry knocked me off my bike. Lets start a thread now "ban van drivers from the road"


In fact, we can start campaigns for both of these things. I love blaming the worlds woes on specific minority groups - its great

"dismissing someone's point because of bad spelling or grammar is poor."


I'd generally go along with that. On the other hand....


"All cyclist belong under a bus and they should all be mad to wear hi- vis targets on there back and a scoring system put in place and I can see the gramma nazi are out in force good times"


..there does appear to be some correlation between using no punctuation at all and being a complete tw%t.

Now we are onto the highest level of taking a 'rise'. This is when the game usually gets pretty polarised and nasty, however, on this occasion, I think a whole host of rather poor attempts have become so desperately predictable that we can see through them. Ah well guys, better luck next time.

Unless I'm badly mistaken dulwichbeekeeper is not being serious.

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him

      Inpost "Parcel was refused" at Barry's - anyone else?

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Actually, one of the reasons Sylvester Road was closed was that the space available as more and more parcels were part of the mix was insufficient (and the facilities were primitive). And that was before Covid when parcel delivery numbers soared. Sylvester Road as it existed then would not have coped, probably (and the move to Peckham, when Covid arrived, showed that that wasn't sufficient either!).

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      Aria came round a couple of weeks ago to take a look at a radiator that wasn't working properly. He did a fabulous job, and was very generous with his time and his expertise. We will absolutely look to him again for any plumbing needs.
