Just as well you didn't say 'invaded'. There only 22 countries Britain hasn't invaded (yet). Here's a map if you'd like to go for the whole set...

I've always been dubious about that map. "Invaded" seems to also include e.g. NATO peacekeeping forces and new countries in old boundaries, rather than the old plant the flag on conquered territory thing which seems to be its implied purpose.

Yeah but they were part of wishy washy cuddly little threads beating about the bush. These two would be more robust and to the point. That kids in pubs thread in general issues needs a good kick up the backside. We need to be talking about employing bouncers to remove mothers and brats for a start. No messing.

Agreeing with Louisa. Should probably be in the "Things that cause you irrational rage" thread...

Why pick on the mothers and not the fathers?

OK 'parents' with kids. But I must say, the quintessential posh mother and brats invading public spaces gets my back up more than any other. Posh dads just need a shave and the removal of any jack wills inspired items on their person (most of the time).

Isn't the point of this thread to list threads you would never actually start? In which case it's a bit silly to argue about something that never happened as it's really just a bit of fun......here's one from me.


Shouldn't the Curry Club thread be moved to the What's On section.

Not about that numbers. It's about having adult only spaces and none of this 'children's zone' crap that half of our locals now adhere to so they can be child friendly and thus boring for the rest of us. Take the kids to a daycare place rather than 'owning' a boozer for the day.

You're not thinking straight Meds, if that happens it won't be part of the 100's game and gone will be the opportunity to childishly annoy MP...

    • Have you read the OP?
    • I would go out of my way to avoid it if I knew where it was 🤣
    • Eh? I'm not sure whose post you are responding to, but if it was mine, you  "clearly do not know how much it costs"? I have two granddaughters who have frequently stayed with my partner and myself in London, since the younger one was four. I wasn't commenting on the cost of taking children out in London. I was asking exactly what a holiday science club was doing with the children to warrant charging £242 for five hours! You "clearly" did not read my post!  You don't have to take children on expensive outings. As you say, there are plenty of free/cheap  things for children to do in London, and children enjoy choosing things to go in their packed lunch which they can carry themselves in a little backpack. As for buying toys etc, you can give them pocket money at the start of their stay, to spend how they want, and if they make poor choices and then run out of money, it's a learning experience, isn't it. And I suspect I am at least as old as you, and quite possibly older! But in any case, Pugwash was not asking for general comments, s/he was asking for specific suggestions for a specific boy with specific interests.
