Come on Col (and Lawrence for the matter). This has gone far too far. Damien
is an utter idiot and doesn't deserve the respect or a reply from anyone.
I am big enough to admit that I was daft enough to respond and provoke, but
I'm not going to bother anymore.
This has nothing to do with the weather, of which there has been plenty to
stimulate some interesting posts.
It's not about dictating to you either Col, if you wan't to continue
responding to Damien, great, but just find another forum.
You are the sort of guy we do want on this ng, because the bulk of your
posts are relevant and interesting.
Incidentally, I have a degree, meet MP's on a one to one basis regularly etc
etc, isn't that interesting!!!

Col listens but will not be dictated to as to who he is allowed to reply to.


As it seems to be a dialogue, why not take it to e-mail?


Fine. As long as that applied to *all* OT banter.

Can you see that happening? I can't. There's an exhibitionist streak to
both of them in that they enjoy being the centre of attention, and this
"dialogue" seems to their way of doing it.


*Me* an exhibitionist?
LOL if you knew me in real life you wouldn't say that!

Col, listen, for the good of the newsgroup. Having this "I will not be
dictated to" attitude is being selfish. There's more reading and lurking
than you think, making out you can do as you please is doing you no favours
whatsoever and makes you look foolish. Have some respect for everyone
else's wishes and ignore the windup merchant Damien, cos thats what he is.


Yes, I know he's a wind up merchant. That's why I ignore the more obvious
goadings to get me involved in a *real* argument and restrict my replies
to good-natured banter. Oh, and I try to steer the conversation towards the
weather when I can.

But at the end of the day, I will reply to whoever I please in the manner in
which I please. In this case the manner is nothing more than having a bit
of fun. If you don't want to see it, fine. That's what killfiles are for.

Respect the wishes of the majority.


You have something of a reputation as a netcop, Mr Overfield.
Now I can see why.
