"Am I?"


I'm obviously being obstinate Rosie but from where I'm sitting you've chosen to jump on me again because (I may be mistaken) you see me as an obvious target where as if you read through the thread I merely suggested the title of Schindlers List over Jah Lush's choice of Cheech and Chong's Up In Smoke because the likely event is that the animals would be put to death like the victims of the film I chose to mirror what I imagined would be passing through the mind of the condemned animal. If it were able to hold such graphic anxieties. I didn't, in any part of this thread make any reference to the holocaust, you're the first to bring this up (referencing genocide).


"Because on the scale of human atrocities I don't think it quite ranks up there with genocide?"


As I said before, I never mentioned atrocities anywhere in this thread so I can't really comment on the above statement.


"You've got me banged to rights and no mistake."


I don't like to gloat, but I hope I've made my point clear enough in the above explainations to be a competent case for the defense.


"What the @#$%& are you talking about?"


Read this post from the beginning.


I'm not chopping up what you've written for any comedic value or indeed, skewing your point. I just find it easier to explain myself this way.

I can't comment on any mistake you may or may not be guilty of making.


Schindlers List is a film that documents the true story that see's war profiteer Oscar Schindler put himself in great jeopardy to protect the Jews working in his factory from the Nazi's.


The one where the boat hits the iceberg is the film in which Kate Winslet gets her tits out on a voyage that reminds marine engineers that nature will prevail.

    • Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!
    • These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January. 
    • Two subjects here.  Xmas cards,  We receive and send less of them.  One reason is that the cost of postage - although interestingly not as much as I thought say compared to 10 years ago (a little more than inflation).  Fun fact when inflation was double digits in the 70s cost of postage almost doubled in one year.  Postage is not a good indication of general inflation fluctuating a fair bit.  The huge rise in international postage that for a 20g Christmas card to Europe (no longer a 20g price, now have to do up to 100g), or a cheapskate 10g card to the 'States (again have to go up to the 100g price) , both around a quid in 2015, and now has more than doubled in real terms.  Cards exchanged with the US last year were arriving in the New Year.  Funnily enough they came much quicker this year.  So all my cards abroad were by email this year. The other reason we send less cards is that it was once a good opportunity to keep in touch with news.  I still personalise many cards with a news and for some a letter, and am a bit grumpy when I get a single line back,  Or worse a round robin about their perfect lives and families.  But most of us now communicate I expect primarily by WhatApp, email, FB etc.  No need for lightweight airmail envelope and paper in one.    The other subject is the mail as a whole. Privitisation appears to have done it no favours and the opening up of competition with restrictions on competing for parcel post with the new entrants.  Clearly unless you do special delivery there is a good chance that first class will not be delivered in a day as was expected in the past.   Should we have kept a public owned service subsidised by the tax payer?  You could also question how much lead on innovation was lost following the hiving off of the national telecommunications and mail network.
    • Why have I got a feeling there was also a connection with the beehive in Brixton on that road next to the gym
