His passive-aggressive posts may well get over your intellectual browline.
I and many others have seen through it and beyond it and they don't.
He preaches only what suits himself and practices a polluting and damaging lifestyle by his own admission.
As to my age, old enough to see through rank hypocrisy like it appears many others.

I have seen sea coal burn it spits, think it’s the salt.
I collected coal on Ainsdale beach in the 1980,s lots of it.Usually more plentiful after rough seas.Filled a ford Escort boot once in about 30 min.

I recently told my daughter's partner that we had a glory-hole in our lobby that we put all sorts in.
His face was a picture. I forget about the modern meaning. In old parlance, I've got a glory hole now. I try to call it a cupboard.

I agree with The Edge that The PNP mostly remains very polite.
It's just The PNP's recent spate and shtick of I-know-where-you-live posts that have been far from polite.

Myself, as you'd expect I always put my junk in it before visitors arrive.

Oh! You've returned from your sabbatical on the games threads.

I have read a lot of anecdotes about people collecting coal on Southport beach in the 1940's-70's.
Perhaps the amount has declined with coal production and waste.

Not seen him for years and years. But he looked pretty old back then.

Beach coal must have been a godsend for many with coal rationing in WW2 and after.

That's true. There were larger pieces then, too. Mind you, that was when it was safe to walk across the beach.

Erm...

I'll let your 'Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)' smilies battle it out ( vs )...lol.
