Hyperbole is the posh word for made up bullshit.

And there was me thinking it was an American football stadium !! :doh:
:laughabove:
For you flower, that's actually quite good :thumbup:
However, as awayman is possibly educated, he would pronounce it high-perbolee rather than highper-bowl so the joke would be lost on him...
You see !! If it is funny, then simply have the good grace to laugh.
Why did you have to turn it into and attack on somebody ?
I did laugh.. isn't that what the "laughabove" emoticon is for??
What attack? I was being complimentary about his probable ability to speak the Queen's English as intended... or did you think I was actually having a go at you 'cos yer a kent fikkie who can't pronounce diffikult words proper like dunno
Loosen up man, it's Friday!!

The law requires the tree officer to calculate the height at which the council will take action on the hedge - there's a lovely spreadsheet you can get to calculate the relevant details.
You could have googled that.
I'm off to google 'a zillion'. I believe it's accurately defined on ' '

well well looky looky
it a word

And amongst the definitions it says 'very large indeterminate number'; another says 'a very large indefinite number (usually hyperbole)'.
Hyperbole is the posh word for made up bullshit.
a word all the same flipa
funny you should also know all the definitions of bullshit but then that is in the council employees hand book
Where do I find the council employees handbook? Or have you just made that up as well?

Because that is what this forum has become, it is a place for petty point scoring which is a shame, it has the potential to display intelligent debate, but only shows glimpses of it.

I look in here to see if there's anything of interest but it's generally the same people rubbishing one another and making very thinly veiled digs, which is unpleasant to say the least.

Mediation?
I would chop it down myself. But then again I would have chopped it down long before it got to this mad state of affairs.
I would have then waited for the boys in blue to come along and jail me for twenty years. No way in a zillion years would I have tolerated this from my next door neighbour.
The artical says....
The statement continued: "If Mr Alvand and his neighbours cannot agree a way forward, then our tree officers will need to visit the property and take measurements to determine the 'action hedge height' and establish what, if any, remedial action needs to be taken."
Eh?
It is as high as the fecking house fgs....what the feck does it need a what? A tree officer ffs.
Soooooooooooooo.....the guy can have a fecking tree the size of his house and the council will not act, yet build a wall two feet higher than is allowed and they will take you to court....go figure that fantastic piece of legislation.

Might have started here dunno

Sorry I was away and haven't been able to keep up with the forum or read all the posts.
Now I am on catch up this will be a good place to start.
As the post is only about digs at each other and their jobs then locked
Lots of hugs and kisses
