![]() "Howard Neil" wrote in message ... Rob Overfield wrote: Can you not reply to Mr Damien please? If you want your entertainment at his expense, do it in a place where we don't have to read it. You may enjoy what you're doing, those who have killfiled him, like myself, do not wish to see anything with his name on it. We want to read the WR's, discuss OBS and argue the finer point of forecasting, we don't want to read your needling of the boy and his responses. Well said, Rob. I only hope that Col listens. I don't want to have to killfile him as his posts are usually worth reading. -- Howard Neil But not Lawrence Jenkins' posts. Joe |

As it seems to be a dialogue, why not take it to e-mail? 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. 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. Respect the wishes of the majority. -- Rob Overfield Hull http://www.astrosport02.karoo.net/YorkshireWeather/ Well said Rob. I afraid to say that if Col doesn't stop conversing with D, I'm going to unfortunelety killfile Col. :0( |

![]() "David Mitchell" wrote in message ... 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!!! -- David Mitchell, 70m amsl, Langtoft, East Riding of Yorkshire. D was amusing for the first few weeks, but now he/she is just annoying background noise. I think the best way around the issue, is to ignore D, and if any contributor to USW wishes to converse with him/her, then do so via e-mail. He/she obviously has no interest in the weather whatsoever. Joe |

Col -- Bolton, Lancashire. 160m asl. http://www.reddwarfer.btinternet.co.uk http://www.reddwarfer.btinternet.co....rPictures.html Banter is OK, but not nonsensical puerile rubbish, which is coming from D.
