Courtesy and Interest or Politically Incorrect?

[Keef]

You're not helping yourself here!

The other bob does pop up now and then, as does his missus. I've met them in the pub and they're very nice.

Going back to the emoticon thing, I am trying not to use them so much, especially the ";-)". The main reason I do though is because I have been caught out before saying something I meant totally as a joke, and ending up having to convince a female friend that I wasn't interested in her in "that way". Sometimes it helps to just chuck a ;-) in.

Probably why he made him a West Ham supporter too...:))

Just think of this as a blank canvas.

Missed this until now drinking in the Walrus..

Of course *Bob*'s a racist. I've know that for ages. Dumb cracker doesn't realise it himself though. Thinks he's tolerant. Thinks he's Chris Morris!

'Sorry that you misunderstood me' isn't an apology either. Show some humility Adolf.

This must be *Bob*'s lowest moment. Whilst I am loving it I'd rather find out if Marmora got to dine out in Tehran if you know what I mean...

[Alan Dale]

Walrus and Carpenter - Lower Thames Street

You saying they all look the same Snorky? Sure *Bob* would agree. They come over here...

[macroban]

[SeanMacGabhann]

Yes I know that - but I never know where you are (other than the Silver Buckle on occassion) or what you look like and it unnerves me

and yes you can call me a daft Mick. But not everyone can...

[SeanMacGabhann]

[Alan Dale]

Anything goes on this thread Paddy. You backed the racist remember..

Nah!

Its like saying someone has an Albanian face or whatever - she has typical Iranian features - they are a very handsome "lot" and quite distinctive

And Yes, I know the lady you are referring to

[david_carnell]

Alan, any non-Camberwell ethnicity in your background you'd like to publicly confess to here and now, whilst the goings good.

Then Sean can give as good as he gets.

[*Bob*]

I'm not getting sucked back into this sorry mess by you, Alan.

I ain' gon' fall fo' no banana in no tailpipe.

[Alan Dale]

Would you Snorky?

[Jah Lush]

About time you turned up Alan to lighten this thread up. Poor *Bob* has been getting some terrible stick. What I want to know is is *Bob* your bitch?
