It’s getting to the stage where any random group of people he’s not listed among is a “click” (siNc) in the mind of gamble.

We can ascertain there cannot be more clicks than posters.You’re top of the heap 😂
The reason I like your avatar is that it looks like the mad hatter – the red bit being the hat. Only when enlarged do you see your full potential.
I always think of The Lounge here at TRF as a branch of Waitrose that has, somewhat unfortunately, mislaid its “No Riff Raff” signs.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Ian walked into a Aldi once in error…. the sheer horror sent him over the edge …he was seen ripping the lids off tins of spam with his bare teeth and lobbing them at security like grenades ….he was dragged out by the police after ” camouflaging ” himself with barbecue sauce and hiding in the vegetable isle …. Its taken a lot of therapy and booze to get back to an even keel

There ARE elements of truth to this story.
I DID walk into an Aldi once, it WAS horrifying, I exited quickly without buying anything or interacting with either shoppers or staff, and although I don’t drink the experience DID require personal therapy.
Aldi has joined Asda, Iceland and Lidl as no-go areas and I feel much better now.

We’re down to single figures.
The Dodo thought the chat in the forest was scaremongering!
Lake’s penultimate post…
‘This has gone too far
I will take legal action against all four of you IF THIS CONTINUESI have mailed davies to this effect
IF you want to be sued
Keep going….
and his final post …
Moderators take note..
I have outlined Lake’s defence in CAPS..
A lot of hot air and in my opinion – just an empty threat !! 🤣
Can I get into the sued click, it would be a nice day out.
It would let me see an example of someone who has completely
lost the plot (more than us)
I cannot disagree, but that bit about suing was just him out stretching his legs. I would be interested in seeing that PM, – but of course PM’s are essentially private.
One must not forget the context…and the lounge has always had the reputation of being a bit of a madhouse, or taking it down one rung – a hothouse.Lounge is sliding back down the forum
will soon be back in the basement under general sports and Archive topicsGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
In actual fact, Chezza regards the Lounge as a sort of faux old school London (ladies and) gentleman’s club for n’er do wells in the style of Terry Thomas and George Cole.
Chezza also sees it as the “pudding” (dessert to the proletariat) of the forum – something it would be easy to gorge on but it must always be remembered the racing folder is the main course.
Never overindulge in the Lounge – you’ll get fat!
“Rich,” coming from Chezza, he knows!

Back in 2005 the lounge was swinging along with the Word Association gang entrenched nicely at its head – similar to the much more virtuous Irritating gang today.
17 years ago Razer was strung up and flung into the darkness and boondocks of cyber to chew his nails away and then his fingertips until he stopped.
The traffic also sort of stopped and yes there was some injection of energies later on but Lolly’s and a few others of his mates just threw in their quills.Recently… Three boys of bad were rampant in here – one left and the other two met a more miserable fate, and one wonders why Drone has lost his effervescence ?
I know Matron likes a spikey lounge and it can be provided for with some ingenuity but never guaranteed.
It’s the old question a question of being careful what you wish for..
About six years ago I had a meeting with the CEO of an energy company in the Citi. It was within walking distance of the Bank of England and I had a bankbroke suit on very nicely pressed and and was carrying an air of affability. This seemed to infect the doorman at the Bank and I stopped and spent about five minutes just chatting about the time of day and surreptitiously mentioned the gold. I pranced away from the light hearted pavement chinwag slightly lighter of foot, knowing the exact times the armoured van made it’s deliveries. I am an honest person but nice to know I still had the gab gift !
There will always be interesting stories that percolate through this dead zone and I provide one as examplar below 👇
In 1836 the Directors of the Bank of England received anonymous letters. The writer claimed to have access to their gold, and offered to meet them in the gold vault at an hour of their choosing.
The Directors were finally persuaded to gather one night in the vault. At the agreed hour a noise was heard from beneath the floor and a man popped up through some of the floor boards.
The man was a sewerman who, during repair work, had discovered an old drain that ran immediately under the gold vault.
After the initial shock, a stock take revealed that he hadn’t taken any gold. For his honesty, the Bank of England rewarded him with a gift of £800. This would be worth about £64,000 in today’s money.
I see I have been badly trumped by number two below !
Chezza to Nathan: You only beat Chezza because you got more votes.”
Nathan to Chezza: “That’s kinda the point of a poll – that’s how they work.”
