Who is our new Mod???
Do we REALLY need one as we seemingly have two already - plus Moses seems to be doing most of the moving posts around to suit himself anyway so yet another Mod is probably the LAST thing this board needs just now as it recovers from Arsenals worst efforts.
And as for SG "departing" perhaps I'm reading his post incorrectly but I read it more as a question to Moses i.e "CAN my posts be deleted" ( i.e not 'will you" but more of a "can you?" question ) where it seems he was then told "no they can't / won't be moved " and to that then it seems he replied with something along the lines of "well bugger that then but from now on I intend to post a LOT less IF at all.
So to me that was a "I'm not posting much anymore unless I chose to or something changes or you pair wise the hell up basically". Perhaps as our unesteemed ex-Mod HAS now hung up his Mod's wand SG will reconsider, personally I hope so, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if he continued to say "bollocks to the lot of it" as a long standing member here after his treatment here and I think he'd be well within his rights.
No doubt the management will disagree with that both about that and re my post in general - but hey no surprises there then eh !
SG's ( abridged) but exact words ( for the record and for fear I be accused of misquoting him) were -
"I sent Moses a PM yesterday .... asking if I could be deleted from this forum and all my posts removed. ........ I was told it's not policy. So, since I cannot be deleted I'm afraid you will just have to put up with my existing posts in perpetuity - but as for any new posts, they will be very few and far between indeed - if at all"
To me that's fairly clear, he hasn't quit, he's just merely lost the will to live with the current managements direction - a common enough feeling these days it seems - no matter what they seem or want to believe.
Now, before we get too off track how we'd better return to the thread in hand perhaps and or move this portion of thread to elsewhere ( as it will be moved shortly anyway no doubt)

That's a bit rich from someone who posted an off-topic comment; viz,

They speak English in Scotland?
If that is not "frivolous," what is?
Should the "real moderator" delete your comment in line with his "duties"?
Quel hypocrite!

Not someone wearing a Bowler hat.
You are, of course, absolutely correct Jelly, old bean. arsenal as Arfur Daley is much more appropriate.

Obviously you have absolutely no idea how a Forum like this works from an owner's perspective. It's all about "hits" which persuade the advertisers that this is a popular site. New content is what leads to "hits". The more hits, the higher the popularity, the greater the potential revenue. Relevance is irrelevant. Any answer, however frivolous, is definitely better than no answer from an owner's perspective. Therefore, from the moderators' perspective - who are there to carry out the policies of the owner as well as (in arsenal's case) conducting their own vendettas - anything goes (acid rain excepted).

Possibly even more than English is spoken in France - which is quite widely in my experience, certainly in Paris. The thing that I find most amusing about Brexit (and there's a lot to find amusing about Brexit) is that the lingua franca of the EU is now English, even when representatives of continental states are speaking to each other. I doubt that will change when the UK departs the EU.

So reassuring to know that they're gone permanently and will never be back.
Re: Nursing Home or Home with Private Nurse/Helpers
If only Davy, if only. But we know different don't we. Ssshhh.
Re: Nursing Home or Home with Private Nurse/Helpers
Thanks for clarification, gerefan. I was under impression that Arsenal, a447 and Christian PFC were the mods. Maybe were is the word!

Sorry, I thought they spoke Scottish in Scotland. My mistake.
