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).


Louisa.

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...

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
