If you want to have a sensible debate about wasps, then yes. The topics in here do not have to be high faluting as long as the discussions within the thread are kept relevant and germane to the OP. A sense of humour is allowed, irrelevant witticisms are not.

mmmmmm I think you've got this wrong Chair- why is Keef's guitar thread not back in here on your logic? The lounge is discussion the drawing room debate, or so it says on the tin . I think the OP only put this in here because they were new. I reckon you could have half the lounge in here on those grounds.


Of course I understand the principle of some interesting philisophical offshoots from these sorts of threads but they fit better in the lounge too.


yours a confused quids

In theory Chair is right, you can have a serious discussion about any subject. But I would've thought it rests with the OP to decide whether they want their thread to be discussed as a serious topic in The Drawing Room or more lightheartedly in The Lounge. Quids is right, Keef's guitar thread has every right to be in here, believe me there are some serious musos out there who are more than capable of getting all philosophical about the merits of owning a Les Paul. On the other hand, if Keef sticks in the Lounge he can't have any complaints if someone then flippantly posts a picture of George Formby with his ukelele under the caption 'turned out nice again - Fenders are for benders!'.


When I first popped into the Drawing Room I saw the 'Is there a God' thread, sighed, and hightailed in out of here. But I'm sure over time it will settle down and find it's raison d'etre...

As this is a discussion about clowns in the Drawing Room I would have hoped that people would respect that and stayed on topic, going off topic is something we'd like deter on discussions in the Drawing Room. I would suggest that if don't agree with the Chair's decision, PM the Chair rather than spoil other people's discussions


This topic's in The Drawing Room so the (removed) jokey comments about "they are the scourge of SE22 and will soon be in the Lounge", "parp parp" and "child abduction" made it Lounge worthy (although confusingly the actual topic itself makes it open to humour).


Anyway this new room's a learning process and Red devil's last line summed it up nicely, "...I'm sure over time it will settle down and find it's raison d'etre..."

Clowns: I think it's the fact you can see they're not smiling under the painted on smile that alludes to their insincerity and potential hidden depths of nastiness.

I think this Drawing Room idea is crap. Most people don't know what they are if they have one in their big ED homes, and others may not know the historical significance of them.


Lounge - Drawing Room - Kitchen.

Just rooms in a House.

Chair - I would like to have an EGM about the getting rid of Drawing Room or renaming it to "Serious discussions about stuff only, no really" thread.
