Ref. Alan Medic


Well that is Your Thread.. Your.. post...


Its a sensitive issue..


Do you think it would be appropriate to start adding Numbers to Your.. thread.


My reference to 'never have anything Positive, Constructive , Interesting, Relative to say in any thread'

meant existing threads. Other peoples Threads. Ones that don't interest you.

The ones you show contempt for. The ones you and your 'mates' your 'gang' wish to mock.


Do you get it now...


DF

DF, no thread is MY thread, nor yours for that matter. Do you not realise that the number of posts that reach a multiple of 100 could happen on ANY thread be it interesting or not to me and my 'gang'.


You really are writing a load of horse poo. Now sod off. I'm trying to start a clique while working out how to post on a thread that doesn't exist...


PS It's not my gang by the way.

I'd say triple.BTW it currently stands at -90 to lift off.


Please PM me regarding the next secret meeting of the numbers club. Everyone in disguise as usual I suppose?

Amazing how a niche, almost irrelevant "game" has become a hot point


My take. When you see a reference to 100, 1000, 3200 or whatever just smile indulgently or go green with jealousy and move on


But Mike P grand naga is surely correct when he says his carefully curated curry club thread has become infected with niche debate, In-jokes and back biting. One can see how it organically develops but equally it don't belong in some places.


In a lounge thread where people are debating.... Merits of cheese on toast? Football matches? A judicious number interjection is amusing


In the curry thread when potential newbies are mustering resources to tag along, an outbreak of selective banter is off putting at best.

SJ, I'd like to point out that the infection you refer to would never have turned into a debate if it wasn't for the great chief himself. Secondly, who are these newbies that are going to be scared off by a number? Why would they be? There may be many reasons as to why someone might or might not attend a curry night but I hardly think they are going to be put off an a number which might have been totally ignored.


The selective banter you refer to is because the chief chose to express his upset that his club thread was used by a pair of muppets (not his words) who play a silly game. The only thread which I think deserves some reverence is the Chapel of Rest. None other.

If you don't like it, I'm sorry. The reactions and insults on here have been over the top and are more of a reflection of the people who expressed them than someone who is silly enough to play a numbers game and get some sort of satisfaction out of it.

Amazing or amusing? Fook me some people* need to get a sense of perspective, it's a poxy game on a poxy local internet forum at the end of the day, anyone else finding this a mixture of hilarious and sad??? We've got ISIS, Ebola and all sorts of crap going on in the real and this merits this?? Really. Pathetic really.


*not you SJ

I haven't but I'd love to know its relevence to a local forum where some muppets (as definfed by someone else) write numbers for fun(debateable). Is there a connection?

Oh yeah? Wanna take it outside?

SJ, he started it a while back. Not just on this occasion. So get off the fence please or read the holy thread. Just because potential new curry club 'members' may be considering it, does not mean they are new to the forum.


Which bit is unnecessary? The number posting or the response? You can't agree with everyone.

    • We needed a bedroom ceiling to be replastered, complicated by the layer of Artex applied by the previous owners.  We applied a primer (Blue Grit) and arranged for John to do the rest. There was a minor problem with the ceiling in one area, which John handled with his usual skill. Great results as always.  John's a great character, and a superb plasterer - experienced, knowledgeable and conscientious. Highly recommended.
    • Back on topic (!),  just a reminder that the new incarnation of the ED Forum drinks will be in The Palmerston TOMORROW Wednesday 11 June from 7pm. Turn immediately left as you come in by the main  Lordship Lane entrance, and we will be in the area there. Hope that at least a few of you will be up for getting to know some of your fellow forum members in real life!
    • For the past 15 years, I’ve been subjected to persistent passive-aggressive bullying and harassment by my upstairs neighbours. Their behaviour has included tampering with my plants, opening bin bags and questioning me about their contents, and interfering with misdelivered post — some of which appeared to have been opened. There has also been consistent noise disruption, like loud door banging and deliberately dropping heavy objects. They often laugh or stare at me when I’m in the garden, creating a constant sense of intimidation. Much of their conduct is subtle and hard to prove, often falling into a grey area that could easily be dismissed as paranoia, which makes it even more distressing. In the early years, I sometimes responded, but I realised this only seemed to encourage them. Since then, I’ve tried to remain calm and avoid confrontation — but unfortunately, this seems to have escalated things. After the recent death of a close family member, they left a condolence note, which at first seemed kind — but it came with a request to cut back my laurel bush, which I maintain for privacy, as I often feel watched in my own garden. The timing and nature of the request felt inappropriate. Still, I arranged for a gardening service and slightly reduced the laurel, though likely not as much as they wanted. Shortly after, one neighbour commented on how lovely one of my potted plants looked — which struck me as unusual, since we’ve barely spoken in years. Just days later, they told me the same plant looked like it was dying and asked if they should water it. Soon after, it rapidly turned yellow, brittle, and died — in a way that looked clearly unnatural. From photos, it appears the plant was poisoned, likely with a chemical weed killer. Access to that area is restricted — it’s behind a locked front gate monitored by a Smart CCTV camera. No one else had access, and it would be very difficult for someone to climb over the wall unnoticed. Given the timing and condition of the plant, I strongly suspect it was deliberately poisoned. I brought this up in a chat with my next-door neighbours, and they revealed they’d lost three trees along the same fence line over the past few months. One of them had previously been asked for access to cut back those very trees. One of the affected trees was a mature silver birch, whose sudden death should leave chemical evidence if tested. I’ve reported the incident to the Environment Agency and requested soil testing to check for toxins. The police have also been notified. I’ve installed another CCTV camera for additional monitoring. I’m not looking for confrontation — I just want to live peacefully and without further interference. But their behaviour continues to feel calculated and harassing. Has anyone experienced anything similar? What steps would you recommend next? I feel at a loss as to how to protect my space and sanity.
