Posting about getting thrown out of a political meeting in the Tiny Little Things thread has just reminded me that I once threw a buttered scone at the mayor's car. It bounced off the bonnet leaving a highly satisfactory butter smear all across the front, after which I scarpered, promptly.


Any advances on scone-based insurrection?

When I was about 14 me and my mate put tights over our heads and under the cover of darkness went and took down a huge vote labour poster thing opposite our house but my mum caught us and made us put it back even though she always said she wanted to throw paint on it.

They never said a word to me but about a week later in the same pub I got slapped standing at the bar for no apparent reason. I put it down to Da Managment.

When I was very much younger I used to delight in switching the politcal party boards outside homes on my estate, Tories would wake up to to see themselves proclaiming their support for the Labour party, etc. I graduated from this to dousing the boards with lighter fluid and setting them alight.


And to my amusement, just last week under the cover of darkness and cider I defaced a large UKIP billboard at the end of my road by spray painting the words "You should be ashamed of yourselves". It lasted a day before being replaced.


I am not naturally a revolutionary, but I do object to UKIP hoardings outside my home.

With two friends in support I shinned up a flagpole in N. Wales and removed the Welsh Flag flying there as a response to some nationalistic baiting of the three of us by some Welsh earlier that night in a pub. (They objected to one Englishman and two Scotsmen climbing "their" mountains).


The flag remain in the possession of one of my friends.

I wouldn't call it revolutionary but it was in response to Concorde being pulled from service and I was very angry regardless of the reasons/disaster and I sent a very long letter to Bae systems demanding an explanation. I also added a sachet of itching powder. Childish I know but at the time I thought otherwise.

    • I'm trying to be civil, see things from different perspectives and avoid arguments. The grey economy is cash in hand, so no tax to be paid, Chancellor loses out, we all win. Zero hrs contracts must be tough not knowing where or when the next work is coming from.  My position might not be great, but with a bit of sensible weekly shopping, stocking up on best buys etc. one survives and life ain't that bad.  
    • I'm trying to find a venue for my daughter's 18th but it's really difficult. Most venues don't want 18th birthday parties. We were looking at Brockwell Hall (The newly refurbed big ol' house in the park) but they want 4.5k for a night which has to finish at 11pm. My daughter tells me her friends don't go out till 11 which I think may be an exageration but I get her point. I'm looking for a bar/club type venue where I can have a DJ till 1/2am and that's about it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    • My Conure just flew away outside.  She flew towards Belvoir Road.   Please call me if you see her.  She isn't tame but she is too small to survive the other birds will kill her. Please call me  07739180197. Or.  07504852207. Carolyn 
    • “Fair points, not arguing with you on them” This outbreak of civility between us is beginning to worry me ! im approaching pension age soon enough myself and im sorry to hear your position isn’t great.  But current pensions are not the result of  any 1 year government (they literally couldn’t be) but decades of priorities across multiple govts and voter priorities  21k won’t get your fat these days as a worker. Transport and other costs before they even get to accommodation. And they will work hard for that then you have the grey economy and zero hour contracts where people earn far less than that  again - your position doesn’t sound great but that’s no reason to deny a new generation  Me and jazzer at next forum drinks  https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2025/mar/28/dining-across-the-divide-i-see-the-welfare-state-as-bloated-corrupt
