To fuck OFF.

Many examples recently of people appointing themselves thread curator and being rude, annoying and pointy finger ish to other posters who disagree with them.

It annoys me more than it should.

Well that's a slight exaggeration. I once had to leave my horse in a man's garden and borrow some pliers to extricate a sheep that was hanging by one leg over a dry stone wall, caught by a twist of wire at the top of the wall.

And walking on Great Orme I found a sheep totally encased in a bramble bush. It took me ages to get each thorny branch out of its coat. I swear it stopped and turned round to baaaaa a thank you at me as it ran off.

Ah yes sheep! They find a million ways to try and kill themselves. We recently had one which managed to wrap a length of wire round its neck a bout 10 times and was tethered by it. I had to rugby tackle it and cut the wire off.

UrsulaPandress · 26/06/2017 08:43

Don't they just. I live in t'pennines and there are sheep trying to die all over the place.

My DBro has sheep which he keeps at my mum and dad's, but I tend not to take a huge interest in them - boggy fields and heels don't mix Grin

You're all distracted by sheep and have missed that we need posses to look for missing OPs. (who are probably as hapless as sheep and need to be found and rescued)

AIBU about piano teacher requires Police interpreter urgently.

SmileEachDay · 26/06/2017 17:32

Piano thread looks messy Sparkling

I think it might require the Special Outfits. CSI stuff.

Reinforcements definitely needed on the piano thread Smile

Chief Inspector Nina, where are you?

Lweji · 26/06/2017 17:53

If you need DNA work. I'm your agent.

RaspberryBeretHoopla · 26/06/2017 18:14

Dishes? Does anyone do dishes?

Oh, er, sorry.

RaspberryBeretHoopla · 26/06/2017 18:20

The piano thread OP had absconded!

How very dare they.

Does this mean that a reenactment is in order?

Someone try to stop the thread from repeating on itself as new posters drop in and continue to repeat what has already been said. Hi vis vest required.

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 26/06/2017 18:25

Raspberry high vis vest on and walkie-talkie at the ready. Excellent job keeping the hordes in check there.

SmileEachDay · 26/06/2017 18:29

Let's send Lweji in first.

We don't want to contaminate the scene.

Ah, the higher reinforcements have come in. Thank you Dawn Star

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 26/06/2017 18:30

Smile did you finish your mock-marking??

SmileEachDay · 26/06/2017 18:31

Smile woohoo!

I gave a young lad a terrific bollocking this afternoon for screaming "yer maw's a fucking dyke" outside my office this afternoon. Not aimed at me, I should add. It was most satisfying. I got my new special Pride Month leaflets out and everything.

SmileEachDay · 26/06/2017 18:49

Nice work Madam

Good SLT meet, or complete waste of time?

RaspberryBeretHoopla · 26/06/2017 18:54

That's brilliant, madam
Love it.

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 26/06/2017 18:56

Smile complete waste of time. Our chief conspiracy theorist is paranoid that our school emails and intranet may be hacked after the happenings in Westminster.

Plus tomorrow I'm taking a class of 17 year olds for PSHE - the joys!

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 26/06/2017 18:57

Raspberry he was well and truly policed Grin
