A 'tentative drive by' Giggirl? That's how it goes down in the ED hood.

I reckon it involves you and your 'homies' (not 'housies', it's more than that), slowly cruising by the shop and slightly raising your voices in unison to chorus "TREAT US WELL, FABRIC FELLOW KNOWING WE HAVE ACCESS TO THE EDF AND SHOULD YOUR 'NOTIONS' SHOP NOT COME UP TO SNUFF WITH OUR RIBBONS AND BIBBONS, WE WILL SURELY 'POST A THREAD' ON YOU, WE KNOW WHERE YOU DO BUSINESS"

You never threaten to 'pop a cap in his ass' on the grounds it would be cruel to one of our dumb chums and your milliner would be livid.

Absolutely correct JTC, and it has been hotly debated in Ian Hunter circles.

My own view is that it's a poor title for a great album.

shouldn't it be 'you're never alone with

schizophrenia'



Just to be extraordinary dull for a moment, it shouldn't be either.

Schizophrenia means split mind, but was when first used to describe the condition was intended to mean split from reality not a split personality.


Anyway, the farbic shop was closed for a while for refurbishment, but as far as I know is open as normal now.

You probably got about as much in the way of customer service as if it had been open (threads passim)

    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
