    If I want to be curmudgeonly about politics, surely I can post in either.
    I will continue to post where I think best.
    There are far too many threads for daily goings on. Why do I need to post about the weather in a separate thread, I post when I say hello on forkers.

    Right wing, Daily Mail Reading cats, crapping in my garden, that is something to get curmudgeonly about. 
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    My mum insists that the Daily Mail is the most absorbent newspaper. Perfect for lining litter trays with.

    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    That sounds a bit like the ' I read this article in a copy of the Daily Mail that someone left on the train'  gambit  @wild edges

    I believe that many people take the Daily Mail because the crossword is easy and doing it makes them feel clever … 🙄

    My wife was barking. Totally lovable but barking. We used to get the Mail on a saturday (?) for the supplement as she liked to do (read do as attempt) the puzzles. Never read the paper.
    The barking mad bit was that she didn't want to be seen as being stupid, so never threw the papers out until she had the answers published in the next week's edition - she would then back fill the puzzles and then throw the papers out in case the bin men saw her initial attempts.
    Ahhh, memories eh? The silly stupid stuff. Oops done it again (@pansyface !!! This is on the wrong thread - should be somewhere happy?)....

    Isn't the Politics thread for discussing politics and here is for grumbling about the governent?
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    I appear to have offended some posters with my earlier post. I do apologise although I did think it was a polite request. I surrender😂

    Why no cats? They are delightful furry animals!! :)

    Cats aren't a problem per-se.  It's the packages they leave behind after visiting gardens which create deep and meaningful discussion.
