Now, after reading some of the comments following my own on Georgia's drinks thread, it's become rather apparent that I was perhaps unnecessarily rude, or, indeed cruel, in some of my overly robust observations.


So, as a consequence I'm happy to take a step back on this occasion and offer my apologies if I've made any lips wobble. I was merely surprised that members of this message board would be so pre-emptive in attending a social occasion attended by possibly dangerous or unsavoury strangers. And I sincerely hope you take that into account before you book the babysitter.


SeanMacGabhan,


Yesterdays childish temper-tantrum was completely uncalled for. You let yourself down, sir. I'm fully entitled to my opinion, as are you. And I hope you'll respect mine, as I will yours. That aside. Let me assure you that I'm not a previously banned user masquerading as another, as you implied. I was directed to this forum by a friend of mine who is a regular user, and has been for some years, so I'm told.


Now, the rest of you.


Some of you may think I'm brash and cutting. Well, that's tough. I simply don't have the energy or patience to indulge in the facade of goodwill that exists among these curious online communities. I find it false, and amongst all things I detest insincerity. So I suggest you all see me as your new Chief Whip because I like to put the stick about when I encounter impudence or insubordination. And for anyone who wants to tangle with me, beware. It won't take me long to meet your measure.


But that's not to say that I shall be intentionally hostile. No, just that I'll fight fire with fire if the occasion arises. As I'm sure you will too.


So, let's put yesterday behind us. And here's to a colourful future.



Now, you'll have to excuse me. For I have to return some video tapes.

So not really an apology at all then...just more criticism of people you know nothing about on a forum you've only just joined...it seems to intentionally wind people up on.


The only fire you've had to fight are the ones started by yourself I'm sorry to say. So it's a bit rich to then talk of 'impudence or insubordination'. Oh and you'd do well not to threaten people as well. There are many very intelligent people on this forum, not to mention many more with infinitely better manners than you.



neeeeeever gonna happen


for someone who has so little patience, one wonders why you would use what little you have to bother with this forum


I stand by what I said yesterday ? you are a troublemaker and will serve no purpose on this forum other than to upset people before your inevitable banishment

I pity your short-sightedness. All I've done is made myself clear. All you have done is continue a feeling of ill-will.

Seriously, why are you here? I can't speak for everyone, but I'm pretty sure no one wants you as their whip. Which begs what are you getting out of it? If you don't like it there are plenty of other places to be.

For where you see insincerity i see honesty. A good number on here know each other personally, there are likes and dislikes as in any community, but we mostly manage civility, something you have been sorely lacking Mike, errr I mean axeman, let's just say I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for the moment.


Now, be a good fellow and try playing nice for a change.

Perhaps I didn't make myself clear, Narnia. I don't find the whole concept false, as I'm sure the positive outweighs the negative. It's just that on the forums I've used before, there seemed to be an atmosphere of agreeing with someone simply so that they didn't offend them or rock the boat.


That's all.

I simply don't have the energy or patience to indulge in the facade of goodwill that exists among these curious online communities. I find it false, and amongst all things I detest insincerity.


Let me point out that a LOT of people have met each other on this forum. A lot of people are also friends....because we are local to each other. There is nothing false or insincere about it. In fact many people who move into the area find the many events/ groups organised by local people a great and easy way to start to make friends locally.


So I suggest you all see me as your new Chief Whip


Comments like this just antagonise. No one will take this kind of comment seriously and why would you think anyone would think anything but tos**er when they read that? So either you set out to provoke of you are genuinely arrogant.


*crossed posts with you guys before saying the ame thing*

Apology accepted Axeman and, whilst I meant every word in the posts directed at you, I shouldn't have sworn - so for that (though only that) I apologise.


Notwithstanding this, I was seriously indigant over your comments vis a vis Georgia (one of the nicest ladies around). Furthermore, your comments regarding Woofmarkthedog (another very pleasant character), to my mind, smashed through the boundaries of acceptability.


I hope your apologies to them are sincere.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
