Nice one !!!

Myself and some friends were in Barcelona a few years back…one of the lads is about 6’5″ built like tank, skin head hair cut…and looks very very scary….

this local lad walks up to him and with a broad smile says

” Hello you scouse B*****D ” and walks away …

and all this to a Manchester Utd fan!!!

NB: for those who dont know “Scouse ” is a nickname for someone from Liverpool one of the lesser teams in English football but who remain deadly rivals to the greatest!!!

What’s football?

I would not know where to start, and it would be never ending, constant challenges. Have to say mines been mainly a damn mess and continues in this fashion. 😀 😀

I like saying “get stuffed it’s none of your business what I do” too much to partake. 😀 😀 😀

Oh oh,

Mark12’s cover has been blown. 😮

Darn 😀

To the others, don’t bother to clarify your points of view regarding this documentary. I cannot receive Channel 4 in Holland so cannot comment on it . But it makes me sick to read how people are slagging of others only because they have a different opinion about Bader. He was a controversial person in life and an inspiration to many others. Noboby can be expected to be a nice guy, same goes for Guy Gibson and others. The had a job to do and did it in a way to inspire (or put off) others.

So Mr Sakars replies to Mr Saunders (just being polite here) and vice versa, someone else joins in and the whole thing starts over again. Who cares. It’s a documentary anyway and won’t change the world as it is now. Let people see the documentary and give them the chance to form an own opinion, without researchers falling over each other claiming they did the best research with the only possible truth. Perhaps I should write my FIRST book, by the time I have published my NINETEENTH book, AFTER THE BATTLE I can look back to reflect.
Sad.

I would like to welcome Dilip onto the forum and again, like some others, sorry about how you got here. It’s a sad part of forum life where an intellectual discussion about anything can rapidly turn into a p*ssing competition about who’s right and who’s wrong and there never seems to be much of an effort to balance arguement. I totally agree with you here Cees (that’s a first 😀 ).

I know that I am often guilty of causing thread drift, but this is getting ridiculous, why not start an “English breakfast” thread in the General Discussion Forum, along with another called “Sniping at each other”? In fact, we could have a permanent thread called “Sniper’s nest” to accommodate those who wish to throw their teddies out of the pram.

Dont you think that would be discriminating against those members who wanted to throw their dummies out of their prams? I like my teddy. I don’t want to throw him anywhere…..

Ali 😀

Why can’t it go on?
It’s not the real World–it’s an internet website.
I think you need to ask yourself Mr Clark, what you actually contribute here yourself. Nothing as far as I can see apart from a sanctimonious griping about how nasty it is.
When was the last time you started a constructive thread, which of course would be a way of improving it?
This is the modern World and the way it is.
If you don’t like it, don’t tune in.
I think you were left previously in no doubt about how I felt (and others) about people like you setting yourself up as judge and jury on other peoples codes of behaviour and the fact that you started a thread over on GD about bad behaviour where you hoped to preach your moral code fell, sank like a lead submarine must have given you some clue as to the complete lack of interest here in your opinions.
What actually gives you that right, other than an inflated ego that you’re right and the rest are somehow wrong?

Why don’t you go away (perhaps spend time on the BBC website–where as you say it’s tightly moderated) rather than sitting in your armchair being sanctimonious and contributing nothing of worth here.

Andy.
PS. Please don’t waste time writing me pious private messages as you did before when we crossed swords.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Shame there isn’t a smilie of clapping hands or there would be a page of them.

😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

I could not agree more in relation to a number of the posts already made in this thread. It is also interesting to note the number of new members to the forum who’s first posts are in relation to this subject. Coincidence? Apart from some being potentially actionable a number have been increasingly infantile. Some are clearly using this forum to publicly “have a go” or else trying to throw insults in certain directions in relation to private grievances they may have whilst trying to hide behind the anonymity of their forum name. Is that what this forum is for? Andy Saunders

I made a comment in another thread about attacking other members and I was assured that it never happens on this forum only for me to be attacked. I’m pretty good at standing up for myself but the thing that I have noticed is when one attacks, another joins (usually a friend it seems) and afterwards they slap each other on the back like school yard bullies.

Ah, the black art or ranking! 😀 No, it is not related to posts or fences or bridges. It is related to who knows what, in other words do not bother to ask as all will never be revealed or the answer will be nonsensible.

Yes, the video is very interesting, it’s not very clear down there is it! 🙂

It’s an interesting video and that’s good visibility for the UK. It looks like the current was running a bit so it was probably quite difficult for the guy to operate the camera, clean the guns and stay where he was.
