I have now crossed you off my Xmas card list.


To do this I first had to create a list (as it didn't exist) of forumites I might send cards to, find a site that would enable me to write personalised message-cards to every one on the list (including you), choose appropriately moving and/or witty and/or corny-schmaltzy images and have them compiled into a final list all ready to be sent around Yuletide.


Then I crossed you off.


Not just deleted - I printed the list out and scored through your name with a black biro.


Several times.

Oh dear- and I thought we were getting on so well.

this isnt a thread about likes is it? why would i want to derail my own thread


you want a thread about music you like, then start one. mark my words, you will soon tire of groovy dads invading it, posturing and flexing their intellectual and cultural muscles, making nick cave puns and banging on about dubstep or some other toss that makes them look like bearded middle class onanists

I don't particularly like this thread. It is complete and utter fecking bollocks and started by a another multi pseudonymous poster that has been done over and over again in the past on this forum. "Ooh, I don't fecking like that, well I fecking do". Yawn. Zzzzzzzzz.


Though it hasn't stopped me from contributing and I rather like Snorky's anger and penchant for winding up the twats, of whom there are many, but not me., for I am wonderful and gorgeous and you're not. So there.

I have no desire to start another thread.


I was just making conversation.


What was I thinking?

No I haven't but I've seen 'The Point' Harry Nilsson.


"A point in every direction is the same as no point at all"



.. but If everything else has a point, well then I must have one, too.

She's a bona-fide musical genius and 'Ys' is one of the best albums ever made. But yes, she can sound like a duck being strangled, albeit being strangled in tune.


Ys really is a masterpiece though.

    • Which is why I was careful to specify "the true definition"! A bit like "dilemma", generally used for any tricky decisions but should really be where there are only two options, both with equally bad outcomes...
    • I raise your pedantry. Language evolves and Merriam Webster gives the meaning as "drastically reduced especially in number." The word originally derived from the Roman practice of killing every tenth soldier in a mutinous army but I'm sure nobody uses the word in that context now.
    • Thanks all for the replies.  When the roofer come to look at the roof more recently,  there were holes in the felt in the same place that the original leak had been,  as well as where the new leak is.  There doesn't seem to be a reason why a hole the the felt was the cause of one leak and not the other.  It would have been good to have got everything sorted at the same time,  rather than having to put scaffolding up again.  But my main issue is around the vagueness of a 10 year guarantee.  After work was done the first time,  the roofer gave us a summary of the work and just wrote '10 Yr guarantee' after, without specifying what exactly that means.   If a roofer comes and doesn't diagnose the problem quite right (which i imagine is common with roofs, given it's not always clear what's causing a leak), the guarantee doesn't seem to apply. But anyway,  we'll be getting a different roofer, because we think he should have checked the felt under the tiles the first time round.  
    • We used to feed the birds, but once the parakeets discovered this they just took over, scaring away all the other species and eating everything in sight. I tried scaring them away with a Nerf gun, but they just didn't care. I know it will open a can of worms (no pun intended) but I really think  the parakeet population needs to be reduced; yes they are pretty, but they are just like a plague of locusts when it comes to food supplies.  PS apologies for pedantry @malumbu but the true definition of "decimate" is to reduce by a tenth... 🫤
