Please can anyone tell me why there is so much utter rubbish and waffle posted on here at times amongst the glorious reviews, adverts, and informative happy to read threads. I have used this forum for years , so why do some members ruin it with unethical unrelated and boring posts????
If you're after reviews, adverts and useful information, then I wouldn't really spent your time reading the lounge.... It's just a place for people to chat, which will sometimes be frivolous, sometimes interesting, sometimes dull and occasionally offensive.

It's about time some of us forum members were given the opportunity to open specific threads in which we offer advice and expert knowledge on things we know quite a bit about. Foxy and computershorty for example would be great examples, maybe dedicating a specific hour or two each week to a thread in which they discuss topics such as local history or magic etc it would be a great honour for me personally to dedicate an hour or two each week discussing spiritualism and hauntings (without having my thread taken over by radical thinking piss takers who like to mock everything I say!).

A thread dedicated to pubs would be great. Not just local pubs - but pubs we've experienced on our travels too. Somewhere for people to come for advice on nice places to visit and stay in, discuss alcoholic drinks past and present.

In fairness, this thread was Lounged from originally being posted in General Issues/Gossip.


IMO, if having room for waffle and banality means more users, then that's more sets of eyes seeing the more practical posts and ads, so it all works out well.

"It's about time some of us forum members were given the opportunity to open specific threads in which we offer advice and expert knowledge on things we know quite a bit about."


Could there be a 'miserable' section for negative posts, a 'genius' section for everything I post, and finally (I've always fancied this) an 'Arts' section for people to share their creativity - example threads perhaps being poetry and scribblings, output (photos of paintings/creations), music (your recordings [get in there Otta]), 'Events' (in the arts world).

    • Ah, ok. I only glanced at it,  and obviously didn't properly read even the tiny bit I glanced at 🤣 Sorry!
    • Is this to be a live in carer? if so you will need to establish hours of work, daily 'time off'. If full time live in carer you will need to employ another carer as relief. One of my clients had a live in carer plus 2 others     rota was carer A main carer - had 3/4 hours off each day when carer B took over. Carer A had one week off in 4 when carer B moved in and did same hours as carer A, but carer C came daily to cover breaks, then it went back to normal routine. Need to have Moving and Handling training and certification. Also if needing to use hoist will need training  and depending on hoist may need 2 people.
    • Yes it's a misunderstanding. The other properties aren't referring to other locations that Tesco will be opening up, but other properties in the immediate vicinity of the poundland. You'll notice they're flats. It's likely the spaces above and adjacent. Likely on the same parcel of land.  They could have made a mistake, but they probably didn't.   
    • Well if it is being replaced by a Tesco, hopefully at least some of the Poundland staff might be employed by Tesco. If not, it would be nice if they got some sort of payoff. If the company is continuing, I don't know if they would be entitled to statutory redundancy payments, if such things still exist? .
