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...

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
