thebestnameshavegone (TBNHG) - no worries, I was probably getting too defensive as well, and I enjoy reading your posts


I'm not twitter-averse - I know exactly what you are talking about and effectively agree with most of it. I was trying, not to control what goes on, nor to avoid mention of the EDF but merely to point out that to use that particular hashtag in a different domain would, to my mind, warrant at least a heads up to Admin first. I don't think he megalomaniacal either btw

Fair enough TBNHG. Reading your posts again now, I have to admit they don't sound as angry as they did to me on first reading.


Like Sean, I'm not trying to control anyone or anything, all I was suggesting was that it might be good manners to run it by Admin first, but I'm more than happy to conceed that this is your area of expertise, not mine.

I'm on there but sadly it's under my real name, and it would be like printing my name and address up here I guess.


There's a 'dulwichmum' who appears have a Telegraph column - I feel like it's an injoke I'm not party to though - anyone know anything about her? I wouldn't say it was bleeding-edge humour, but it's obviously someone who lives round here judging by the references she makes.


Twitter is a bit insane - last week I had Graham Linehan (the IT crowd bloke) DMing me 'SERIOUSLY WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING' regarding a blog post he'd half-understood regarding a relatively obscure miscarriage of justice - which, granted, seemed unjust - but the actual facts were still coming through and it was too soon to make any real judgement.


It inspires a strange vigilantism whereby masses of people feel they are 'doing something' yet really are just angrily agreeing with the people they follow - and 99% of people on Twitter follow people with similar beliefs.


Back on topic - an #ED hashtag would actually be sufficient (you're not going to cross streams with anything else I wouldn't have thought) - and it frees up 137 characters to actually Tweet something.

Eh?! Haven't been on the forum long have you?


TheGooseIsOut has just started twittering, can't understand half of it, my daughter told my to rtfm, I had to google that as well :))


Edited to say: I probably mean tweeting, not twittering, which exemplifies my problem :))

I eventually found myself on her blog, being kind I'd say it's not my thing.


I think Neil Boorman did the 'isn't my area a cliche' thing a million times funnier 10 years ago - then again I'm not a Dulwich Mum.

    • It didn't occur to me to ask. No idea if dieticians are employed within the NHS. It is just one line of enquiry among others. The GP mentioned it, not me.
    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
