Yes Nutty that's the one.

I only spent 15 minutes on it, and you're only allowed 30 options.


Bob, i think there are probably a lot of grey areas. For insance I'm really a lap dancer, is that artist, entertainment or retail or even advertising?


We could make a better one and place it somewhere and get admin to lock it or something.


Ant, loved 99, thought it was extra-terrestrial for a moment

Well, Media seems to be winning comfortably at the moment - though we need far more respondents to make it statistically valid, obviously.

It has made me question the title of the post though, as I don't think that Arty/Media are particularly instructive when lumped together - they seem to be very distinctive and separate categories. Maybe Media is half-way between Banking and Artist?

I'd count myself as a "Farty/Tedious" type. But I do like to listen to some of the(would-be?)"Arty/Media" types in the local bars, especially Franklins which seems to attract them. (Having said that, I think Franklins gets a very interesting mix of customers and a very relaxing atmosphere because it doesn't appeal to the rowdy troublesome element - what few of them do enter normally don't hang around for long.)

the Saturday Guardian has the best crossword in the known world. Although I am completely stuck on the bank holiday special.


I try to be as insipid as possible most of the time. But I never realised that working in a particular job could make you anaemic.


Did you know that in other parts of the country they dont use the cellophane and you can sneak the guide (or the crossword) out of the 7-11 undetected.

    • Thanks for stating the bleeding obvious
    • Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄
    • Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.  
    • Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
