Welcome to the forum computedshorty.


Before starting threads you might want to try doing a search, using the search box top right, to see if there's already a thread running on your topic that you could add to. The forum has been running for a while now and lots of things have come up before. It's always good to hear new voices and new opinions, but seeing the same threads satrted over and over does start to get a bit dull.

Don't be put off computedshorty... I found it very interesting. Maybe I missed the fascinating previous thread.

Actually, think I might have seen it but it wasn't very good. Nobody mentioned people like James Nesbitt, Jenny Eclair, the girl from Gavin and Stacey, Monica Ali or a number of other people.

The forum is for everyone not just those who are long in the tooth and continually looking for something new.

Since you missed them, Gimme, here's the first thread, the second thread, the third threadand the fourth thread on the topic.


You're obviously not alone in finding the subject fascinating and, if you look through, you'll find everyone you've listed plus an awful lot more mentioned.


I'm not trying to put anyone off, but it does get a bit tedious when things just go round and round.

I'm with Anna.


If you are new you cannot be expected to read the whole back catalogue, but that is where the search function comes in handy.


After sometime on here, you will be old hands and experience the same groan when someone new starts something old.

Surely the idea of the Gossip section is for bored people to kill a few minutes / hours etc.

So what if the discussion has been had before. "Famous people in Dulwich" is hardly a thread designed to exchange information.


I can see the point of someone asking "anyone got any advice on sash windows" and being pointed to the thousands of posts on it but the point of gossiping isn't the same. Computedshorty probably didn't start the thread to get information but rather to have a natter and kill a bit of time.


Do we really want guardians of the forum who tell people what they can and cant natter about?

I don't. If I see a thread that asks "what's the best curry in ED?" I just don't open it.

If you don't like what's on, change channel.

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.
