The Porty Pool info boards in the cafe must have been done by the same company - spelling/ grammar mistakes a-gogo

The planning portal's got an updated for the school. The previous one was very difficult to read.

Why do you keep on bringing up this 'longstanding locals' all the time Epykat? Each time I see you write it down it makes me think that you only think that longstanding locals are allowed to have a say. There are probably more folk living in Portobello now who were not born and breed there than were, so I think you need to give it a rest with the 'longstanding locals' comments - and to be honest if folk are that uninterested in what is going on in their local community that when announcements of where new projects are to be built are ignored by them cause they don't recognise the name of the place then they really probably don't care unless it is on their own doorstep!!!

As I have pointed out to you before there is a sign on the railings at the front of Portobello Park saying 'Portobello Park' - if anyone actually used Portobello Park they would have seen said sign.

You beat me to it rmolehusband

What does it matter what longstanding locals call it? Thing is they don't use it.

Really, I'm flattered that you think I put so much thought into that post. I suppose it all depends on your perception of 'longstanding'. It doesn't attempt to create the impression of anything other than what it says. Some people have lived here for a long time, some people haven't. From the sounds of it it's you who is under the impression that there are two camps. I really don't give a toss where people come from or how long they've lived here, but I do have a problem with people who rubbish what other people say or do just because it doesn't fit in with their opinions. Is there a word for that?

The rubbishing must only be visible to some longstanding locals. I've moved out the locale so I can't see it either Sean.

[Scoop]

Well, there's a first. Barred from ANPHSITP! (did anyone else notice what that is an anagram of?) Who would believe it? Oh, wait a minute..........

Now, call me suspicious, and an old cynic too. And lots of other things besides. But don't call me a hypocrite.


(Pishpant, in case you were stumped)

[Epykat]

Can't be true surely? Two people barred......sorry, I mean deleted by mistake.....

[Scoop]

[seanie]

Where is this rubbishing of what other people say just because it's a different opinion?

[Scoop]

[seanie]

The rubbishing of other people's opinions has been deleted?

[Scoop]

I posted my opinion on ANPHSITP, I don't think I rubbished anyone's opinions, but they were different opinions to those held by the administrator, who deleted my posts, and barred me.

[seanie]

Seems unlikely it was as simple as that. What exactly did you say?

[Scoop]

Someone posted something along the lines of"the council has followed due process" to which I said "due process, Aye, there's the rub. This council wouldn't know due process if they found it in their soup" That was a general swipe at the council, not at the poster
"

[Scoop]

That same poster jumped to the conclusion, wrongly, that I was on the side of PPAG. Which I am not. nor am I on the side of those who want a school in the park. The same poster made a comment about how she couldbn't understand "how people like Vicki and Gillian" can turn a blind eye to the awful time that those who want a school on the park have gone through.

[Scoop]

To which I replied that since the poster didn't know me, she had made a wrong assumption about where I stood in all of this. so I told her where I stood. I told her that I didn't give a toss about the where the school was built, when it was built, who it was to be built by, if it was built.

[seanie]

Don't see what any of this has to do with rubbishing other people's opinions.
