    Was walking through the meadow earlier and a hen pheasant flew up in front of me. Chicks flung everywhere with her wings! Poor little squeaky yokes, they're only a couple of days old :D

    It can make you wonder all you like. It was light hearted humour. Frazz posted a very good post about his boarding school experience. MF240 and a few others hadn't such good experiences, they are entitled to their opinions as well.

    Calling lads dick heads and it getting tolerated by mods is poor. Even though this mod shared the same boarding school experience it seems as frazz. That would make you wonder also why it wasn't removed!

    At the end of the day the fella has got upset and closed his account it seems. Unfortunate.

    Be that as it may, they are protected, except under derogation, and it must be shown that they're causing damage.
    You could easily get yourself in bother.

    He wasn't called anything. It was said in general to the thread so it could have meant any poster. I'm not going to drag Frazzled into this as he posted a very good reply on why he approved of boarding schools and then felt he had to delete it because of a replies that insinuated it was bad parenting to send a kid away to boarding school.

    I believe the amount of thanks on that post is because others also felt that he should not have deleted his post.

    You know by now that commenting on moderation is not allowed. As is discussing why a poster closed their account.

    It was abusive and should have been removed no matter who it was targeted at surely? Respect your other points though and topic closed but a decent poster lost.

    The meadow in question isn't to be cut, we're grazing it instead. It was a back-up in case we went down in the test.

    Narp, it's a very fine looking lady but not one of our males as it's about a mile from the house.
