So with the recent nostalgia thread about how long people have been posting on the forum, I thought it would be a good time to reflect on some of the most memorable moments in the history of the forum.


One of my personal favourites was the daffodil thread from 2009.

Louisa.

A quality thread needs Jah Lush, Otta, ????, StraferJack, El Pibe, Jeremy and Mick Mac. And how could I forget bob and *Bob*, DulwichFox and Sue. Many more missed too. SimonM is greatly missed by everyone, and what?s happened to computedshorty?


*sigh*

A Million % right.


Easily, the wittiest and most consistently hilarious person on here over the last decade or so by a Country Mile.


I would love to know him in real life as he was superb.

I always thought he was more of a forum persona than a real person. There were a few of those back then. Very amusing, though, and came across as a sympathethic character who knew the diffence between teasing and bear-baiting and always stayed on the right side of the line.

I somehow missed Colin the Catflap Fitter thread. Sadly it disappeared before I saw it.


The privet hedge thread springs to mind and the Osbourne Stewart one as well.

And, as someone said before, the 'crushed and devalued' thread.

The Poo Thread!!! Aaahhh who remembers the Poo thread?


Quickly morphing from incredulous disgust to quick-witted hilarity it was clearly the best thread the forum had ever seen.


Such a shame that the poopetrator (who was easily identifiable at the time as being the stag of a stag do in the EDT) felt so panicked that he and his friends bullied and threatened the OP into having the thread removed.


Not before several thousand EDFers had read it of course.


😂

When Gingerbeer introduced herself on here - that thread was good. the sharks circled.


GB is well and dandy and in USA, Im a FB friend. She was great fun and loved London.

    • My bird app just picked up swifts before I heard or saw them!  
    • I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you.

    • Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leon. Very reasonably priced and called out on the same day I contacted him! 
    • ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
