I am really completely overwhelmed again by the aggression and ire vented on this site.

I am happy for someone who has done something awful to get a pasting on here (Jacqui Smith for one!), but too many people take their vague preferences and turn them into something a whole lot more poisonous. All to often these are directed at small businesses who really need support in these difficult times - not a verbal assault.

I would like to suggest a 3 strikes and out rule. 3 complaints against a post / poster and get them off. Just to try and keep people interested in remaining balanced and open minded.

Wow, this place is like a tranquil walk in the park compared to the British Army forum or even Bruce Springsteen's politics site.

Or indeed another forum which is supposedly about music but which is made difficult by two crazed racist trolls and a born-again Trotskyist... Or the Lantra-L discussion list which is for professional translators but invariably breaks out into screaming over Arabs/Palestinians/occupied territories/born-again American Jews and all that jazz.

I prefer the whole idea fighting on the forum, and making love on the streets.


Pavement Queensbury rules apply of course.


Where?s the whipped cream and honey on mi tongue lets go for it especially with any pretty small businesses assistants.



I guess the most important thing is that we all have some fun and a little forum anger is good to keep us all on our toes?

    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
