Quoted from Greenham Common

That is your prerogative, but that shouldn't prevent constructive criticism, yours is just to moan.  I'm still waiting for you pearls of wisdom, I suspect, however, your just full of bovine excrement.



Such a shame you haven't the wit or intelligence to come up with anything other than lavatorial insults!

It has been for ages, that's why I make little or no comment on many threads.

Most of the threads on here go way past harmless banter, i'm afraid!

Its a shame, because you have to sieve through pages of bollox, just to read anything useful!!

Unfortunately this forum is not big enough to have several moderators watching the threads, and the way it is going, it is doomed to just get smaller and smaller. Pity though!

I'm sure there are (or were) many out there who would join in, if it was toned own a bit,  and had much less of the mud-slinging bitchyness that is now rife!

Totally off topic now, as the thread is about bollards, not bollox!

Lavatorial insults would have meant using the real word, but at least I don't pretend to know better, where as...

You came on here saying that the bollards are a nonsense, then when asked, you hide behind 'it has all been said before'.  Well that is a cop-out.  I'd like to know why you think they are a nonsense.  If it helps I agree, but like I said previously, I cannot think of a better option for keep unauthorised drivers out of the pedestrian zone.

When someone like Old Goat come on here spouting the odds, it would be useful if they could reinforce opinions with reasoned arguments, but sadly no.  People like Old Goat's only interest is to say how crap everything is, and how he can do better, yet when challenge, they shrink; hence my what he is full of comment, which superseded his unnecessary rudeness with his 'rubbish' comment to me (and then went to prove me right).

Old Goat's reaction of 'rubbish' was totally unnecessary, I said nothing to deserve it.  He complains of etiquette, yet when someone posts in good faith, his response is with words like 'rubbish'.  That is bound to provoke a response.  Especially as with every reply, he proves me more and more correct.

greenmeaniw61, hitherto, you have been respectful, considerate and rational.  I see no reason why you or anyone else need to be concerned about me, or anyone else on this board, if those attributes exist in a post.

Use the Ignore facility if you feel this way, I certainly have with those that I feel are here just to wind people up and as a result I never get to see their posts. This benefits everyone not just oneself as one is not drawn into pointless bickering with them.

I get out enough.  Now are you ready yet to teach us how the council have got it wrong and how it should be done if you were in charge?

Don't worry boys - I have clearly disturbed the peace!  So I'll leave you to it; don't want to upset the locals.  Bye Bye.

So I'll leave you to it...


No-one's asking you to. You've just been asked for your opinion. But now it seems that you can't head for the door quick enough!
