There are 82 Pages of missing people with 6 people on each page. Thats almost 500 missing people that most of us will not have been informed about or are aware of. Does make a farce of the implied "Racism" claims.

I've quoted the whole message as it is word perfect. Splendid synopsis of the situation.
  3. EDF sure is a steep learning curve! I had never acknowledged RosieH in any way yet she chooses to involve herself in comments that I have made. Not content with that she initiates abuse and derogatory terminology. After a succession of abusive comments from the delighful RosieH I then reciprocate, so RosieH becomes the "young" silent innocent "victim" and I get told to shut up and are abused by others including the cravated Dandy himself David Carnell Esquire! What a jolly caper with the added bonus of sniping from the periphery of the Inner Circle. LOL What a charming exclusive little Club this is. lol

  5. Now don't get all "Girly" and coy with me RosieH . What about my kind offer ? I assume you are unemployed at the moment, doubtless, "just resting " from permanent work. lol This could be a great career opportunity, especially if you can cook, as well ! Oh! Do say YES !!!!

That don't look up to me RosieH. In fact they spend most of the time talking about themselves. I even called my friend "Mimi" yesterday as its all about "me me me" as far as she is concerned. I don't have a cleaner but if you are offering?? I pay top rates and I just KNOW we will get along like a house on fire. Are you up for a bit of washing and tidying and general cleaning ? p.s. As a little incentive I got regale you with my VERY amusing anecdotes and vignettes while you are working! p.p.s. Please supply your own pinny though. Deal ?
  8. RosieH Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Not remotely tetchy, just don't believe a word of > any of your fabricated tales. Based on a lifetimes experience RosieH. Absolutely no need to fabricate anything at all. I've plenty of anecdotal stories and when one sees the same things over and over then one notices a pattern forming. Are you , seriously, telling me that in your work experience that Women, overall, are not treated more "gently" when it comes to receiving the blame or criticism because, I don't believe a word of it, if you do as 2 people's life experiences can not be so dissimilar.

Either you don't get it, won't get it or don't want to get it or can;t get it but I want Women to get more out of their lives than chatting aimlessly. It actually happened to me an hour ago. Female friend wants to share her problems so she rings me tells me the story about how she and her Partner's Mother no longer speak, Naturally her Partner is stuck in the middle so its "You tell her blah blah" and from the other party "you tell her blah blah". She then REPEATS the same point 3/4 more times when I actually understood the point the first time. Why the constant repetition of the same point? Strange that if I've got "issues" and serious ones, at that (!) that I stayed with someone last night, am seeing someone else during the day tomorrow, live with a female friend and have had 3 other Women phone or text me today. You would think one of them would gently let me know that I had "issues". Though ONCE AGAIN I have to say that its a FEmale trait to accuse the other person ( Male or Female) of having issues when they say things that are unpalatable. lol

  11. Twirly Wrote: I am also quite curious about this stranger who got into your car and insisted on being taken to Harrow? when did s/he make their escape in your little story? This is what actually occurred in "my little story". The traffic in Piccadilly Circus was not moving due to the traffic chaos at the (old) Trafalgar Square junction. A complete stranger of Mediterranean appearance suddenly opened my passenger door and insisted that I take him to Harrow. I informed him that I was not a Cab and, surrealistically, he told me that he knew that but still wanted me to take him to Harrow. I got out of my car clutching the keys and made it clear I wasn't going anywhere and he, eventually, got out and walked away! lol... Whilst this was a HARROWing experience it had nothing to do with my getting, rightfully, stopped but I used it as an excuse that I was disorientated. I was not disorientated but my quick thinking might have got me the benefit of the doubt with the Policeman.
  12. Particularly sad when a real talent leaves us. Gerry Rafferty R.I.P.
  13. Exactly Louisiana. Life is far too short and the opportunities for us are endless if we try to make them happen so lets be positive and not dwell on the negative!!
  14. zeban Wrote: No I'm not a driver. My concerns come from being a pedestrian which is why I think people like you should stay off the road. zeban I had established you weren't a driver after your opening gambit.:)) I just hope that every single time you cross a road that you do it EXACTLY withinthe Law and never cross any road apart from the obvious places like Zebra Crossings/Traffic Lights. Please confirm that you have never transgressed as you expect high standards in motorists so I assume you have ALWAYS crossed at designated places. That is so, isn't it ? p.s. I'm sorry that 200,000 (mainly ) London miles without a single incident is not goodenough for you but I am at a loss on how I can improve on an exemplary driving record, in ( mainly ) London, of all places and yet you still say "people like you should stay off the road." I like the "people like me" bit ! So how can I improve on perfectly obeying every Road Law and on having no incidents in the last 12 years, please ??
  15. ImpetuousVrouw Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I know men who fit the description Mr S has given > too. Yes but its all about proportion and scale and degree IV. I know or have known Women who are physically aggressive but its clearly a more common trait in a Male but, of course, that does not mean all Males are agressive or even a majority of Males are aggressive but what irritates me is that if I said that truism no-one would say a word as its so obviously correct ( quite rightly imo ) but if one makes an equivalent negative Female observation or generalisation then its a different story. I've seen the way the 2 genders are treated differently in Offices all my life when it comes to receiving criticism. With a Male its much more to the point and firm with a Woman its, usually, "Er,Joan I've got a teensy-weensy little point and don't worry its NOT your fault and its no problem and I really don't need to say it for the future but would you mind, if its fine with you that is, and take this the wrong way and its not personal if you ,,,,,,,,,,,,zzzzzzz" lol

Makes sense but what a sad relection of our Society circa 2010. I have heard that said about young Females late at night which makes perfect sense but its like that during the day, as well in broad daylight!

The whole point is that there was no-one else around and as I was already in the Main Road i.e. The Walworth Road heading towards Dulwich that there was no point in my Red Light at that time. What happens in sensible areas is that anyone driving in the early hours from a side road triggers the traffic system which makes sense, but there were no pedestrians or other Motorists anywhere and yet I had to give way to the Green light in favour of the Bus Lane. If a Bus comes along then, naturally, they should trip the Light system and gain precedence but there were no buses or anyone else around so why was it necessary for me to stop when I was in the Main Road? Coming down the A13 from Barking thru' The Blackwall Tunnel the cars are on permanent GREEN unless a Bus comes along in the inside lane and the bus gets priority by triggerring the lights and the Motorists lights turn Red. THAT makes sense. Free-flowing cars and the bus gets priority at the lights so continually moves but there were no buses at 5.00AM at the time I was there and no-one wanted to enter from the side-roads and there were no pedestrians so what was the point of me stopping Huguenot? Pray tell...

  20. ImpetuousVrouw Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Not much fun being mown down by a speeding > vehicle. Who suggested it was ? Any speeding I have done, for example, as been, invariably, late at night on empty roads or on Motorways when they have been clear. Near Schools/Hospitals, of course, there should be a strict limit but tonight when I go along The Embankment at 2.00AM with few other cars on the Road or last night when at 5.30AM I had to stop at a Red light on the junctionof Walworth Road/Manor Place when NO-ONE benefitted me being fored to stop as there was no-one else anywhere to be see. THAT is crazy and plain pedantic.
  21. SeanMacGabhann Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > No points in the last 12 years en simonet? > > I have you down as someone very young and unlikely > to be driving that long so im calling foul on that > score Mon Dieu! I was driving when the old "Devils Corner" was operative i.e. Every driver for themselves and NO traffic lights around Hyde Park Corner, that is before "those that know best" decided we were not able to fend for ourselves and a Traffic Light system was installed around Park Lane and the Roundabout around Hyde Park. That sorted the driving wheat from the chaff. How long has Trafalgar Square been changed since the old traffic system, where I received my let-off? Many a long day, I should think. You have me down as "very young" and on another thread TONIGHT they have me down as being "old". What jolly japes or "Whacko" as Jimmy Edwards used to say. ( Funny how a young 'un knows about Jimmy Edwards innit ) !

I'm embarassed for some of them as their lives appear to consist of endless Chit-Chat, about nothing in particular. Gossiping about everyone and no-one, watching Big Brother and other mindless shows and at the end of their time I'd like to ask the embarassing question: What have you done with your lives apart from yak endlesly on the phone, watch mindless programmes that teach you very little, if anything. Where is the adventurous spirit and actually DOING things rather than idly chatting about them? My irritation is that I want the average Female to get more out of their lives instead of filling up every available minute yakking about nothing in particular to fill up their time.
  24. zeban Wrote: Clearly by your attitude, it sounds like you're pissed off, not sorry. You shouldn't be driving as far as I'm concerned. Bring on your ban, it sounds as though it will come soon anyway. Sorry but I've just reviewed your comments and they are utterly ridiculous. I'm delighted NOT "pissed off, as you charmingly put it, as the Guy showed flexibility and ignored the rule-book and gave me a final chance which I grabbed with both hands. Hence 200,000 miles since of perfectly legal driving. I was demonstrating how refreshing it was that someone used their discretion and I've proved they were 100% right in doing so. How you interpret my gratitude as "pissed off" beggars belief! Its the complete antithesis of that!
