On a similar dialogue tip, American girls who offensively twang through the sentence and then descend into the Britney growl at the end thus rendering the whole thing incomprehensible.


Fortunately most of them are saying bugger all so it doesn't matter

And the background music is 4 times as loud. Annoys me too.

Climate change bandwagon jumpers using the recent Cumbrian floods and warm December weather to make 'off the cuff' remarks about how it is "proof" we need to do something. If you're going to make the scientific argument for climate change please do so, but stop scaremongering with the use of one off weather events to justify your narrow opinion on an issue with potentially very serious implications.

Yup - it's weather, it's what happens.... Damn all those woolly mammoths driving around in their 4x4s, causing the Ice Age....

Absolutely, and let's also not forget we currently experiencing one of the strongest El Ni?o phenomenon on record. It usually means warm wet and windy followed by ice cold and dry. I wonder if those climate change fanatics will be jumping around making claims about a new ice age come a very cold spring?

So you think the climate change hypothesis is wrong? Based on what?


Of course you can't make climate change responsible for any single weather event on climate change, any more than you can blame smoking for any single case of lung cancer.

BNG I categorically believe on the evidence! or lack of, I've seen surrounding 'climate change' that to date, nothing can prove nor disprove the hypothesis. But I would of course welcome science to come at me and say otherwise. Totally open to ideas. From what I have read and understand on the topic, I am to date swayed by the idea of natural climatic fluctuations with little or barely noticeable difference made by humanity. I find it grating when institutional mainstream science on the whole backs the 'climate change hypothesis', that then other individuals jump on the bandwagon making out that every single little bit of extreme weather is a result of this, and tbh nothing has shown me personally that beyond doubt climatic changes outside the realm of natural fluctuation is actually happening!

The problem I have with the sceptics is entirely philisophical in that (to generalise) their argument/narrative has gone something like this as each point is proven by science:


"No Evidence"

"Evidence is wrong"

"Evidence is OK but Climate Change isn't man made"

and, more recently, "the outcomes won't be as catastrophic as everyone thinks"


I am no fan of either bandwagons, pcness, or on the whole, the Climate Change/environemnteal lobby etc but the anti's argument shifts are not very convincing

Quids I do not deny that mainstream science has proven certain things, which could potentially contribute to so called 'climate change', but I believe the extent to which they contribute is vastly overestimated and has become almost an industry in itself. Mainstream science seems to have some sort of agenda, and this agenda is fuelling fear on the issue forcing governments to agree radical alternatives to ensure temperatures do not rise. I am of the opinion, temperatures will rise and fall over time and any influence from humanity is so significantly small it contributes nothing to the overall scheme of things. We had a mini ice age a few hundred years ago, no one then ran around claiming the world was going to end.

      Surely nobody is going to want books in poor condition, unless they are rare and possibly valuable?

      Noise from Wide Awake festival

      Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk.  I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.

      Nursery Recommendations

      By Mary Mac · Posted

      Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend.
