What a foul little thread this has turned into with some people using it to re-iterate their hatred and hobby horses.
Dennis, that's exactly how it started with me and you won't be able to ignore them. Leave now would be my advice and don't post again, unless there's a good reason. Hughes and others like to make up stories about people who don't fit their idea of how people should act and be and that's fine, but don't lie, Hughes and moderate your foul language would be good advice for you to follow. I never regret finding out exactly what people like you are like.
I "left" for very different reasons - it just got boring, with same things trotted out week after week and any deviation from that, though the number of posts and post views were far higher in the threads of interest, drew the same incredibly boring and predictable reaction from some old people, who I realised I just don't like and are not worth spending time discussing anything with; so I didn't any more.
Things move on and so do newsgroups. Good luck to those who I got on with, but I know from your emails that you feel the newsgroup lacks a great deal now and the fall in the number of contributions reflects that - like it, or not, dear vultures. Some of you won't read this post, as you've left, I know. It's mainly a list of weather reports (excellent though, Colin and Darren - two reasons why I still visit and thank you both) and one far right-wing old nutcase. Like I said, I have no regrets leaving others - although one actually followed me and stalks me elsewhere! That's really very flattering and about as scary as being stalked by a dead sheep. *))

He never claimed that the *whole* of Devon was a winter wonderland

the subject line (now restored) is correct. There *is* a winter
wonderland
in Devon, namely his part of it.

I criticise when I see things that are simply wrong and I changed the
title to reflect that. I'm really not interested in your sycophancy,
or that of some others. I find the "oh goody it's snowed and I really
love it" (ad nauseam) posts truly boring and I'll criticise them as
and when I feel fit. Most time I just yawn and let them go. Not this
time, as I live in Devon too and it's cold and green; not
snow-covered, as are most other areas.
It's not wrong. There *is* a winter wonderland in Devon. Are you
really so desperate to criticise Will that you can't see that?
That's just typical of you, to accuse somebody of being a 'sycophant'
simply because they disagree with how you have responded to
another poster.
Got it?
Yes.
You are a deeply unpleasant individual. Bitter, twisted and utterly
unable to comprehend just why they are so despised on this group..

Grow a thicker skin would be my advice; or don't post on usenet; or come and live in Devon and look out on no snow whatsoever when someone less than 20 miles away is saying that Devon is a winter wonderland.......yet again an exaggeration As I said, most of it isn't. I'm just putting the record straight. You don't like it? That's not a worry; you are entitled to your opinion, as is everyone - including me, Col. *))
The problem is that 'Winter wonderland in Devon' could mean snow
everywhere in Devon, or there is a place in Devon with a winter
wonderland. Will's text shows which interpretation should be used.
Malcolm (in a very green Devon - but was patchy white for a while).
Yes. That's why I changed the *title* and said that by no means is Devon a winter wonderland.

I left the group?? What an odd phrase. Think about it a little.
It still isn't snowing in most of Devon and it isn't a winter wonderland in the bulk of Devon.
