we are now free to travel. which broadens the mind. apparently. If you are our age (mid 60's) then you must realise, from henceforth, we are left behind. My missus complains that our daughters use the 'Muuuuuuum salutation as a means of describing idiocy. If they knew the half of what we,singly and together 'got up to' before they were born, they would have a hard job believing it. Lucky for them we will never ever tell them.

addendum: in 2 parts

a) if I had my wits about me at the time and knew then what I know now etc I would never have agreed to a 'family' Christmas when my wife's parents would descend and reduce my wife to tears within the hour and

b) watch grumpy old men/women at Christmason youtube to know you are not alone.

stay strong y'all tis only once a year

I never wanted to hold a snake but was obliged to when my son left the nest and left behind Snakey. His pet from his reptillion days. I was left holding the snake as it were as Snakey needed to be looked after. My holding a snake is on a par with your fear of heights.

The guy/girl who says nothing all bus journey but as the door

opens to get out strikes up a conversation with a long

lost mate whilst everyone waits to move on :)

Great, a thread for me.


Why does everyone (including older people) walk round looking at a screen. Why can't I go to gigs any more (and this will soon include the theatre) as so many people video the whole event, or worse spend their time texting or tweeting their views, or even worse play that candy thingy game.


Why has the anticompetitive Apple corporation got so many of us by the short and curlies. Why hasn't the might of the US legal system / antitrust system taken them on when they are brave enough to take on Fifa.


Why have we made Britain, in particular London, a safe haven for money laundering, in particularly in property.


Where have all the good pubs gone, and why do you lot drink expensive fizzy beer because it is 'craft'


Me, I'd rather spend my time moaning on this forum. None of these points above are for debate, just humour me!


Happy New Year.

    • Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name. 
    • It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.  
    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!  
    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!
