better be careful if we congregate here we could get busted!

I'm reminded of that George A Romero movie "Day of the Dead" where the zombies are driven by some vague instinct to wander around the shopping mall...slobbering and drooling.

Quick, let's get out of here......there's nowhere else to hide in this forum. The Mods have us cornered. Let's make a dash for the clubs forum. Hide in one of the threads there. Be careful, they're bringing in the big guns. Extinction is imminent. Clan forum refugees are being gunned down indiscriminately.

No. Try as I might, I saw nothing on page 6 of that thread that made me want to read on. Page 1 was more interesting, with its discussion on gentlemen. It's definitions were clearly American and included some elements that were foreign, for instance, to British readers, though the spirit was probably universal.

Next to the last post on page 6:

It's a lighthearted poem by "Jack Prelutsky, Born: 1940. 'From The New Kid on the Block', published by Greenwillow, 1984"

I'm pleased you enjoyed the page 1 discussion.

Oh, yes, I saw that, nice, but I wasn't clear that that was what you wanted to highlight.

Perhaps its was the smell of Grampy Bobby's 'pants on fire' on page 4, bottom of the page, onwards on that thread.

I think I'll move determinedly on from that train of thought! 🙂

Could be the remains of Lemondrop. He got burned at the stake in the clans forum. Stunk the place out for a week !!!

Its like they shut down our local pub and stopped serving beer altogether. We are refugees now, outcasts, we cannot even mention our former abode in any forum without fear of reprisal. Its like they banned us wearing the kilt and speaking Gaelic all over again, shipped us off in droves to America, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.
