UK Election

[QUOTE=dcfcsteve]I said that I took your comments personally - not that I felt 'hurt' by them. There's a big difference.

What is that difference? - educate me and I'll gladly concede. As stated I'm open to to advice, no hangs up there.

What the fecks that all about ? Did you bang your head on the shelves above your computer or something.......? :confused:[/QUOTE]

If yu're going to indulge in that kind of crap it does you no credit and if you can't understand arrogant then that's your problem.
By, the way, I don't take that...er..put down personally or felt hurt by it, just had a good LOL.

Apologies for the separate posts, I just can't get the hang of including separate quotes in my post so it's a bit long winded.
Hope you can live with that.

By the way, I don't have shelves in my vicinity, thank God. I do enough damage to myself without added perils. :D

Will getb back to your other points in a little while.

Re above quote, I noted in your reply that you conveniently omitted the opening line and stressed the Tories bit - above are your words. By the way, read your own words in that paragraph, you never mentioned Labour in that section. Ever heard of Campbell? So if you cite your own words, don't re-edit them to include Labour.

Hamish - I would've thought it might have been obvious that it was a typo by me to write "Tories and Conservatives" (yes - even arrogant people like me make typos - shock horror... !), given that we all know they're the same thing. We haven't had any other type of government apart from Tory and Labour recently, so typo aside I was hoping you might've given me the grace of working out that I meant Tories and Labour.

Anyways - genuinely without attempting to dodge your questions/points, the endless reams of tennis responses is becoming a tad tedious. I'll happily debate anything I've written with you over a pint in person should we ever meet up (did someone mention you possibly attending London vs Roscommon on Bank Holiday Sunday ?), but won't be checking into this thread much again aside from that. Again - not shirking by any means. Happy to debate it all with you when/if we meet up, but don't find much interest in endlessly picking apart what someone says for days and weeks on end via the internet. Call me old fashioned.... :)

Let me know when your list of corrupt MP's is up and I'll take a look with interest.

Love to have a pint (make that plural dcfcteve) and you're welcome over here to drop in if you happen to be in the area -fcuk it I'll even buy the first round.

You're not arrogant - I was just messing with you - it's a naughty tactic I use to get under a person's skin to see what they're really made of...

Just curious - will you be an independent, labour or lib dem? You don't have to answer that if you don't want to.

I'll try to answer your main post, above, as quickly as I can and as briefly as I can (anyway I hate Tennis) as I'm sure you're probably campaigning and appreciate the time you've taken with me - honest comment, 100% sarcasm free. :)

I'm a bit under the weather at the moment and will try to get stuck into that post of yours tomorrow Saturday.

Bye.
