Ah …so hes balancing it up now then

I did work out for myself you were taking about many, many years ago.
I also worked out the other people taking about Hampstead were talking about more recent times.

So was I but you quoted that one sentence about my very early childhood experience which I shared on NSC and which you chose to make an oddly snarky dig about whilst editing out the other references to my time spent staying in Hampstead whilst working in London as an adult in much more recent times. (Up until around 2010 until the London house was sold)

Anyway.

I disagree with some of the characterisations that have been made about Hampstead ( and London in general) based on my personal experiences as an adult.

Where we choose to live and what we love or loathe about where we live can be highly subjective as this thread shows.

Bowing out of this unpleasant thread now which has stunk of racist undertones frankly, the politics of envy and judgmental attitudes and the usual trolling binfest that people seem more interested in engaging in than discussing the actual issues.

Enjoy the match

I think with the more publicised incident over the stabbing of a young woman someone has been charged with attempted murder and a couple of other arrests…..regarding all the other stabbings that have occurred and other criminal incidents i cant help you…regarding going to court there isn’t any info that i can see…but if i had to guess ..I’d doubt any would have been brought to court as yet…and i’m sympathetic to the point you are making.

However, my thoughts are with those who have been stabbed and that they recover. Hopefully the police/courts will deal severely and speedily with the perpetrators

Thanks for your reply, I totally agree it must have been a terrible time for those involved, I hope they pull through okay and those guilty like you say are dealt with in a severe way, quickly.

Am I a nerd? For sure.

But it took about 37 seconds to perform that search (I've just timed myself repeating it). I'm not convinced it materially affected the quality of my Friday.

Anyway, I live in Arizona and it's August - if anything, I need to get out LESS.

37 seconds is impressive.
Perhaps you could give some tips as my searches find sweet F.A.

Millions loved the Notting Hill carnival but there was too much crime. As an ex-cop, I could make it better | Leroy Logan

There are new calls to ban the event, but with fresh thinking and official recognition of its true value, we can silence the critics, says former Met superintendent Leroy Logan

A great piece about the institutional racism that surrounds the joyous occasion that should be a national source of pride.

It's a bit like Ronnie's two months since appearing on here posting 50 times a week has coincided with @Is it PotG? reducing their regular posts by 50 posts a week over the last two months. Obviously it's just coincidence, but it's all there on the Internet so it doesn't disappear

Just like the other coincidences https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/threads/the-labour-government.408704/page-21#post-11210080

and three days after that coincidence was pointed out, he was back

I only edited out the other bits because I wanted to reply about the donkeys, it wasn’t that serious
I edit out a lot of things that I think are irrelevant, your posts are long enough without me quoting the whole thing

The mum who was stabbed, has now passed away.

Another pointless life lost.

Throw away the keys for any vermin convicted for this.

And sadly she is not the only one

Man and woman die after separate Notting Hill carnival incidents

Cher Maximen was with three-year-old daughter when stabbed and chef Mussie Imnetu had head injuries
