Curtains?
Curtains? Curtains? To open the curtains would mean coming out from underneath my duvet... no way... not this side of the temperature reaching at least 24 degrees C!

Dunno what you're all on about. It's down there, or up here now I suppose, just it seems to have lost all posts since mid-March.
Funny to see how the thread revived since the controversy started, with the most frequent postings virtually since it began, and loads of its critics being responsible for its accelerated growth.
Oh, the irony.

Hey Mad Jock, that £300 quid was just for the salted peanuts.
There was a whole brewery heading your way. It's on the M1 but I've just told him to to come back.
Perhaps next time.....

Excellent post. Totally agree.
Ever since this BS Pink crap has been allowed to remain in the private flying forum I haven't bothered to reply to anything.
Come on mods - move it out. It has fück-all to do with flying, private or otherwise...

Not sure I'd agree with Rustle's wording, but I do agree with the sentiment.
Over the last few days in particular, the whole Private Flying forum has become dominated by a subject with nothing to do with Flying. There are other better places for the thread to go so that Pink_aviator can get her fix from the adoring masses.
Could this forum go back to being about private flying.... at the very least, could the myriad spin-off threads be zapped or merged?

Why doesn't someone start a simple poll.
I would do it but BRL will just chop it.
All it needs is:
TITLE...Time To Vote
OPTIONS...1. PA's thread is moved to Agony Aunt Forum
2. PA's thread is nuked
3. PA's thread lives on.
Please someone, PLEASE do it. It finally end the debate.

2D's, thanks 
TB - no need for a vote, just watch what happens.
My previous post will be edited or zapped because I CAN use my PC to say it how it is.
P-A's threads (whatever they are called) will not be edited or zapped because he/she cannot...

It seems I am not alone in abandoning Private Flyers Forum,
I see a number who agree with Eiras sentiments are those with whom we used to have excellent discussions with on very real and useful threads here in Private Flyers.
Can we please reclaim it back for those of us who have a very genuine interest in General Aviation , wish to promote its worthiness etc.
The likes of Rustle have been actively involved with AIS to improve the access of information to all private flyers, if people like him are abandoning the site don't you think that is an absolute crying shame, just so certain people can entertain the mad musings of an OTT individual.

It would be a shame if emotive language got in the way of a genuine point though. I think "flower" hits the nail on the head.
Pprune has forums that cater for the sort of threads that Pink_aviator likes. This thread (and its numerous offshoots) should go there where she can be supported appropriately, and Private Flying should be about.... well.... Private Flying.

FINALLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My point can be seen.
Since her enlightening on Friday night, Pink has been dipping into all sorts of other threads with her disjointed garbles.
C'mon someone, start the vote. We will then have an answer and BRL won't be able to selectively delete any anti-pink posts.

BRL, could you at least merge this thread with "It's Gone", as my mouse is demanding a pay rise.
I favour a gentle, caring-sharing supportive and huggy transfer of the pink thread to Agony Aunts, where those who wish to follow it can do so, leaving us free to return to our very important discussions about kneeboards. At least this would mean fewer patronising lectures from Whirly, and less "*** off you ***ing ***ers" from the other, less articulate, pink pixies.
As to that, by the way, at least Toryboy has tempered his comments with wit, and has refrained from hurling abuse, but this hasn't stopped it being hurled at him. On second thoughts, he is a tory, so *** him, the ****er.

Whilst you have been scribing that most amusing post (seriously FNG, it made me laugh for the first time today) I have been desperately trying to work out how to start up a poll so we can really see how the future of the pink lies.
Being a Tory type I would normally have someone do this for me so therefore I am coming up against a few difficulties.
Please can someone help?
P.S Glad you approve of my clean language. Eton never did tolerate foul language.

Okay, maybe some positive action required...
If, accidentally, the problem thread had numerous large font extended character comments the admin overhead would be too great and it may be forced to move to a more appropriate forum.
More likely, I suspect, that well meaning and normally responsible posters would be banned
