Muttley, you shouldn't pick on Snorky's inability to spell!!


You only need to read older stuff from pepys through swift to Dickens to realise that there's no such thing as truly standardised English, but we've more or less settled on some accepted norms today, as have they.


But txt/email english could yet be the death of that. I know the evolving language argument, but like third nipples under your armpit, maybe somethings just shouldn't evolve in some ways.


Where we? Oh yes Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo dOO doo doo, de doop de dopp de dooooo

The postcards have arrived!:)) And they're actually quite good, OK, they're nothing special but they're something to be treasured. I look forward to giving everyone from the forum a free one on Friday night. For the rest of you, they'll be on sale at the Fair on Sunday, I haven't worked out how much yet but probably something like 20p each (or 5 for a ?1).

And I'm sure Andrew will have the visual record of events posted soon

Just raising my ugly head now, after popping into the Bishop on way home!! What a great evening, thoroughly enjoyed meeting you all and twasnt anywhere near what I imaged. This will be a definate in my social calendar from now on. :))
Also would like to mention that The Clockhouse looks great and I really liked the fact it was non-smoking, a) because for once I didnt reek like an ashtray b) so much healthier doing it in the fresh air (haha) c) got to meet little splinter groups outside for more in depth chit chat.
Sorry. Had every intention to be there. In fact, spent the evening telling people about what my real plans were and insisting that I couldn't stay long at the impromptu work-drinks session. Next thing I knew it was today and I was in my bed with the all-too-familiar pig mess in my head (Withnail, anyone?) Glad I got home in one piece, sorry to have missed drinks with you guys. When's the next one?

    • Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the guy who posted the rumours for the source of the information? The Crown & Greyhound refurb was a big job - not surprising that it took longer than just a simple repainting. But renovating the Grove would be even bigger because it's totally wrecked, and there's a shortage of skilled labour and much more expensive materials now...
    • Rather bizarrely, I received a text from TJ surgery offering this service. To be clear, no data was asked for in the text so I don't suspect a scam but surely this is dodgy? Where does my DNA info end up and who would have access? I'm going to the surgery on the invite date to ask precisely this.
    • I used Emmaus https://emmaus.org.uk/slc/ to clear my grandfathers house last year. They were great. They all charge for this service so will come and give you a quote first.  
    • Hi, does anyone know of any charities or companies that can come and clear your house to be donated for a good cause? I know the British heart foundation does but wondering if there are others? We are moving overseas and hoping to donate most of our belongings in one swoop if we can! Thanks.
