I could have sworn "The Library" was mooted, and in my opinion, was well-suited.

This is more Heat, than The Chap. Any chance of a name change for the forum?

I agree. I gather the library was deemed unsuitable in the earlier topic but I'm not sure WTD is right either, though I don't suppose it makes a great deal of difference anyway.

I had to stick my head in here just to figure out what this sub-forum was about. The title really isn't that obvious.

I like the forum name.
Bit more interesting than 'the library.

Well, no, because you'd struggle to get folk to understand the function of the Serving Kitchen, in forum terms.

Suppose we'll get used to it, but I hope that the dullard in the sub-forum name doesn't infect the content.

I will for the moment hope you mean Shakespeare...

Already got my coat on, yer honour. Saccharine plotting, and sensationalist playing to his audience. He'd have loved Uncle Bob and the Murdochs. Please, Sir, can I have less biggrin

Aw, it changed from 'What the Dickens!'
That's a shame.

I thought it showed a little creativity, that PH sometimes can reveal, rather than the flat-footed, ho-hum, run-o-the-mill, everyday, ordinary, normal, flah-le-dah boring title that very other forum has.biggrin

Disagree. That kind of naming makes my teeth itch. It's as though they have to give it a fun name to attract people.

Books & Literature does what it says on the tin.
