His use of language was pretty spot on, which makes me think he either was an American or a Brit ex pat.


I have not bothered to check, but use of 'z' for 's' would be the real clincher.


Walt is indeed from Walt Disney....it is generally used to out a member of the public passing themselves off as a service member, but there is a whole host of different categories now, including someone who has claimed to have tupped a Dragon.


The claim to own shares was nonsense, of course.


Perhaps he was confused, and is a guard at Bluewater....

Do you know that the last thing that Walt Disney wrote before he died was 'Kurt Russell'. He died before he could explain it, and even Russell claimed to have no clue.


However, I think it's now apparent that Walt knew, many years ago, that the only person to save us from this social unrest was Snake Plissken, aka....... Kurt Russell.


ePetition anyone?

I have no idea why I wrote Disney....when I meant to write Mitty....sorry, a senior moment.

ha ha, fair enough. Mind you wasn't walt disney a bit of a weirdo thinking about it? Didn't he have his head cryogenically frozen?

Thinking about it, rumours are that Britney Spears already has, the weird dancing was down to the fact that she's actually been dead, taxidermically preserved, and moved using animatronic technology!

I love that he thinks he's been banned for disagreeing. I thought it might have been for his abusive posts?!

And a special message for Rick, as an EDF exile - good to have you here, and please don't go and get yourself banned. I may not exactly agree with all your views, and I do sometime find the left / right ding-dong tedious, but I do think it's better than everyone on a Forum having the same view, and congratulating themselves on how much more enlightened / realistic they are than those outside their magic circle.


Thought this from Sydenham forum's Tim L was pretty good. I read something the other day that said the main reason people left online communities was not because of conflicts, provocative posters, off-topic discussions, spam or technology trouble. It was because they* were no longer interesting.


Oh, and whilst I found myself agreeing with Eagle on that particular thread, those with differing views put them across in such a way that meant I wanted to read what they had to say and see things from their perspective. Perhaps rethink my own stance.


*not them, their online community. (Yet on EDF they may leave, but often return..)

Well, thanks Katie, you say the nicest things. We take our - small l - liberalism seriously over here in Sydenham.

First I would like to say I disagree with the UK upraising methodology.


Given the UK has a corrupt financial system a corrupt political system and a corrupt legal system ? what did people think was going to happen.


Even poorly educated people can see politicians and bankers steeling and getting way with it. What example is that.


Before people go baying for blood please take a look back at history namely Germany Enabling Act of 1933

Interesting the yobs was saying just that, when interviewed there explanation for looting. ?If the rich can do it why can?t I?

The repairs after the UK uprising will more than lightly reach into the millions. And this is wrong.


The time-bomb created by banking sector and fund managers is over 700 trillion dollars in derivatives, these derivatives have yet to be marked to market, I am sorry to say that when this happens the UK uprising will appear small in comparison.


Just incase anyone wants to know what 1 trillion looks like in time

A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.

Richard, that's not a nice thing to say.


Why does it make him nuts anyway?


The debts handed down by financiers is pretty flipping big and will never be paid off. In fact some Swiss banks are now talking about expanding the special drawing rights as a new global 'super currency' because the dollar is about to go tits up. They call it 'special drawing rights', but it will in effect be a currency and will be a way of re-branding the paper money/debt product for the more elite financial consumer and a way of by-passing the demise of the dollar as the global currency.

What on earth is this problem about the SDR now?


It was invented in 1969 FFS.


It's just a way for credit worthy governments to support their spending/debts if the banks go tits up. They borrow off eahc other instead of the banks. It's not rocket science.


If you want to understand what this means just remember that 40% of UK annual government spending is borrrowed. If we can't borrow it we're all fecked.


SDR covers our arses.

    • Gone to the better hunting grounds during this local ongoing dry spell.
    • The Dreamliner has an impeccable service history, you are more likely to get mugged on the way to the airport than having any issue with your flight, that's how safe it is!  Have a great trip.
    • Maybe. Does that kill grass? If so, possibly the same dog that has left its poo outside my house - pretty sure it's not fox poo.
    • Here you are, intexasatthemoment (you seem to have been in Texas for a very long time!) We went to three of the recommended places yesterday,  as they were all in the same road (just near Wallington)  and I needed to give the car a run to avoid another slap on the wrist from my garage (and another new battery). Here's my findings. BARNES Parking We thought we would go here first as it was the earliest to close on a Sunday (3pm). There was no apparent entrance or anywhere to park. One notice said do not park on grass verge, and another one said staff cars only! Flittons was opposite but I'd already passed the entrance, so I had to drive down the road, turn round at the next available place (covered in signs saying do not park here) and park in Flittons car park! Plants Barnes  specialise in hardy perennials, so that was basically what they had, but an excellent selection, and many more unusual plants (or at least, plants you probably wouldn't find in a garden centre), eg Corydalis,  lots of different varieties of Epimediums, Trollius, some lovely Phygelius, lots of different ferns). The plants were divided into sections according to whether they needed sun or shade or could cope with both. They had a particularly good selection of  shade loving plants. There was really useful information above  each group of plants, which meant you didn't have to look at individual labels. All the plants looked in good health and  very well cared for. They don't produce a printed catalogue, but they  said their plant list was online (I haven't looked yet). I assume most of  the plants they have at any one time are when it's their flowering season (if they flower). I wasn't intending to buy anything, though was very tempted, but I'd definitely go here again once I've sorted out my overgrown garden. Other Stuff Don't think they sell pots, compost, etc. No cafe/tea room and I didn't see a loo, but Flittons is just over the road. FLITTONS  Parking Easy to park Plants Sorry, but mostly terrible. There was one section with vegetables and the rest was flowering plants. There was a general feeling of delapidation. Some of what was on display was actually dead (surely it would only take a minute to remove dead plants) and a lot of the rest was very poorly maintained, eg gone to seed, weedy, apparently unwatered, or with a lot of dead leaves. There was a notice asking for volunteers to work there, so I can only assume they can't afford to pay staff. Other stuff There was a notice to a play barn (?) saying invited people only, so I think they must host kids' parties or something. They redeemed themselves with a cosy little cafe with savoury stuff, nice cakes, iced chai and oat milk, and a loo. Also a selection of books and CDs on sale for charity. If you want an Andrews Sisters CD, you can find one here. There is a small shop with gift shop type stuff and a display of the history of Flittons, which apparently is family owned since the sixties (I think it was). I suspect that the arrival of Dobbies down the road must have greatly affected Flittons' fortunes, which is sad. DOBBIES  Parking Easy in theory once you had navigated a rather narrow entrance, but it was very busy so it took a while to find a space. Plants  Lots of plants, well maintained but I imagine their turnover is high. Lots of nice bedding plants for hanging baskets, window boxes etc  to cater for all tastes (ie some of it wasn't mine, but fine if you like those horrid little begonias (my opinion only) but they did have some nice (in my opinion) stuff as well. I was tempted but decided to buy from North Cross Road market. Fair selection of climbers, various different Clematis etc. I'd be happy to buy plants from here. The prices seemed reasonable and they were in good condition. Other stuff  It's a big garden centre with all that entails these days, so a large area selling garden furniture and storage, tools, animal collars, pots, all the usual stuff you would expect. Very helpful staff. There's a cafe which we didn't check out, charging points for electric cars, a Waitrose (no idea how big, we didn't look). Only on our way out did we see that there was a drive through "express section" for compost etc, which was annoying as I wanted compost and hadn't seen any anywhere,  but I was getting tired by that time. Just Down the Road A ten minute drive away is Wilderness Island, a nature reserve in Carshalton, which is well worth a visit. We heard eleven different kinds of bird (according to Merlin) and saw a Kingfisher flying down the tiny river!
