Honestly; he was just trying to do a pun. It came out wrong.

Don't worry, if you ever want someone to be there for you, someone you trust and love it's probably not him (but when push comes to shove I reckon it is), but you know, I fucking love him like a brother anyway.


Put it this way...I vouch for him, whatever that's worth.

I'm not trying to make an issue out of this, but when I have pointed out that you were quick to defend personal friends who crapped all over the forum you got quite indignant about it.


In situations like this I think it would be better (given your position) to keep quiet and encourage your friends to apologise on their own behalf and behave themselves in future.

Sorry to disagree with you HAL, but I don't think just because someone's a moderator it should mean that they don't get to have an opinion.


It's human nature to defend someone you like whom you feel has been misunderstood, and god knows, there have been rampant examples of people leaping to their friends' defence over perceived slights recently, so I think Mockney is more than entitled to voice his feelings on the matter.

If you are talking about the quiz night thread last week-end it appeared that the 'character' in question was exceedingly pi**ed and used a lot of abusive language and suggested other things that some found offensive.If you read the thread which was removed overnight you wouldn't describe it a someone being a 'bit upset' but extremely upset to say the least.

I'm merely making the point that as a general principle, those who stand in judgement should remain impartial.


Anyone can state an opinion, but we have gone beyond that: this judge is acting as counsel for the defence - as it happens, on a thread about some else who was subject to judgment and found guilty because, presumably, he didn't have friends in high places.

I thank you Declan...and I don't wish to appear ungrateful...but that I am aware of. I was wondering if there was another facility or way of telling. It's just that I am mystified as to why someone would wish to click onto a user's name in this situation. Seems odd to me.

    • The original post was made by someone else, not the person whose post I was replying to! And the original post only mentioned Whateley Road (which has been clear of leaves whenever I have walked down it) and another unspecified road. My question was directed at CPR Dave, who (as was clear in the post I quoted)  said "The streets round here are a disgrace".
    • We had a delivery from Matoom last week. Sadly, as I had high expectations, especially as it wasn't cheap, I was underwhelmed. To start off with  positives, the corn cake starter was ok, and my partner said his green curry and coconut rice was tasty. I  (unadventurous I know but I wanted to do a direct comparison with Chern Thai) had Pad Thai (with tofu and veg). There was a lot of it, which was good. So much that I had half of it cold for breakfast the next morning. However, it was almost completely noodles, with hardly any veg or tofu. In fact there was so little tofu I don't actually remember eating any.  I do remember thinking that the stirred in egg must be some kind of tofu. I'm wondering now whether they were busy and forgot the tofu altogether! As it didn't come with peanuts (which I knew in advance as they weren't mentioned on the menu) I ordered a peanut sauce (?) separately, though I can no longer see this on the online menu. This didn't really help much taste wise  For comparison, we both had Pad Thai for lunch yesterday (Saturday) at Chern Thai, with gyoza to start. The Pad Thai was fantastic, good sized portions with lots of tofu and several different kinds of  really fresh lightly cooked vegetables.  The gyoza were also excellent, just the right amount of crispiness and with a good amount of dipping sauce. The meal  was also very well priced. I realise it's not very fair to directly compare the price of delivered dishes to dishes from  an eat-in lunch menu, but in terms of overall value it was much better. And the service was lovely. In case our Matoom delivery  was a one off glitch, we will book a table and eat in there, but so far I am disappointed. ETA: Just realised this thread is about BYO. Chern Thai used to be solely BYO, but it now has a full drinks menu with Thai beer on draught and  wine. You can still BYO, but there is a charge. We had jasmine tea, which was very nice.
    • Hi Angelina - whilst I’m not close enough to this decision (as a candidate not a councillor), I would hope there will be public consultation if this situation arises again next year. As a local resident, I will push for this, if I do become a councillor. Hello - I will ask for this to be updated as soon as possible, as I appreciate people will be looking for this info!
