You should stop with the builder thing though, I mean s bloody what? IWork with teenagers, but I still say f**k and c**t a lot when I'm having a beer. I don't want to base my whole persona around it though. I'm basically on your side for the most part, but thing giggirl got it spot on a few posts back RE self censorship.

Man, who do I have to sleep with to be in the know on these things?


For my part, I'm less offended by language than disappointed and bored that the level of wit has sunk beneath that of Dave's continuity announcers (oh and the very excellent Cobra sponsorship ads on the same channel)

If I organised it would you come and watch RosieH?;-)

.. and another thing.


Occupation has nothing to do with the acceptability of language used in a public place. Use F and C all you want in a Pub - which is a controlled environment and is not an open arena. The Forum is a public place and so the use of bad language is as bad here as it would be on a bus or in a Supermarket. Just because people do it, doesnt make it right and is certainly not big and clever.

    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
