I disagree - Brendan is fine.

[SteveT]

yeh... you're total chump Huguenot,

I also disagree, I think Hug-you-not is good value,

and well worth reading his posts.

[Huguenot]

As I said on another thread, I try hard to be contentious, illiberal and definitely not wishy washy ;-)

Omg what on earth do you mean by that ? ::o

[KoolBananas]

I think perhaps sean means the likes outside his usual social grouping - no offense suggested to either side (tu)

[woofmarkthedog]

I'm....

Now naked...

* breathes stomach in *

But this is starting to feel like "the good ol' days" again

W**F

[SeanMacGabhann]

I used "the likes of" as a subsititute for "as examples of" newer people I've met - if someone asked me who my favourite singers are I'm just as likely to say "the likes of Bowie, Coughlan etc"

But I THINK daizie was just yanking my chain

[daizie]

Yank Yank.. for a moment there i thought you meant 'commoners' .

[SeanMacGabhann]

see above - I left school at 16. Commoners is ME.

I didn't dare ask Daizie in case I didn't like the answer! Moreover, I didn't want another "clash"! But come now, you must admit, Mr. SMG has grown on us over the months - hasn't he (I mean, we didn't take to him AT ALL at first :)))!. Nice thing about clashing with Mr. SMG is that he always makes up graciously - and that's nice. Endearing, in fact.

He does Daizie, only it's OK because he admits to being a lowly pleb himself.:))

I'd just like to add, that I did go to uni (well, actually it was an Institute for higher education a year before I went), but I dropped out with one module to go. This seemed a good idea at the time, I keep meaning to do a module just to finish off the degree, but 10 years, and other qualifications later, I just can't really be arsed.

I'm not a posh boy though, and I'll have a fist fight with anyone who says I am! :)-D

[Huguenot]

Lol!

Ladymuck sounding up bit like Gollum talking about his ring.... :))

A lady does not caress her ring in public!

This one does! (But then I left school at 16 too - though I did manage to attain one "O" level, so do not qualify for title of complete pleb)

And what have you got in your pocketssezzzz...

From small things big things grow. The EDF simply got bigger, spread its wings. Some stuck around and others flew the nest. It still serves its purpose and is still worthwhile but Fings Ain't Wot They Used To Be and nor is nostalgia.

I hate cherry cola so I'll settle for a pint of Guinness. Cheers!

Official Announcement: Let it be known that the "powers that be" gave me a bag of gold stars.

So......I hereby award the first of these prestigious, coveted awards to:

*drum roll*

.........brum. Because I like what he said.

(yes, if you go back a few hundred pages, you will see that his post has been awarded a shiny, flashing gold star icon in the top right hand corner)

PS. Its great reading everyone's views. Is that a lily-livered, non-combatative thing to say? Good. :)

PPS. Btw, is the Cliques-R-US meeting still on for tomorrow? Double Good. :))

[RosieH]

Damn straight - that means you've come the fuck in, right?

Not that I mean that I'm in a clique you understand - just that I think people should join in if they want to and quit bitching if they don't (that said, I do recommend being pushy - took me about a year and a half, but I did finally manage to get those CPT boys to buy me a drink)
