ta Gally hmm (that's not old age creeping on. I never got it right!) grin

disappointing - no Jingl definitely only one S

imjingl Sat 21-Apr-12 09:15:36

there are two s's in dissappointing (i think)

imjingl Sat 21-Apr-12 09:14:53

Wow phoenix. Get over yerself!! hmm grin

Can I just say that the original post was only ever meant as a mild and harmless joke. Nothing nasty was said, and I think that Greatnan is big enough (character-wise!) not to really take any offence. Disappointing if I'm wrong, but there you go.

Gracesmum that joke was, in fact, made by the vicar on the radio (on who/whom, btw, I place all the blame for this little uproar. Christians eh? wink)

'who's posts are valid'.

great.

OK, I might, just might, accept jingl as someone who's posts are valid. On occasion.

Don't be too unpleated, SOOP. Not worth it!

SOOP Fri 20-Apr-12 16:24:54

bags knows! and jeni I shall remain "unpleated" [for the time being] smile

jeni Fri 20-Apr-12 14:17:12

SOOP. What has ruffled you? You don't normally ruffle, more like genteelly pleated! What have I missed? ( [nosey]emoticon)

bagitha Fri 20-Apr-12 14:00:05

soop, same thoughts here!

The radio message is allright. The way it has been used is nauseating.
Refrained from saying that till now but I think it needs saying. sad

SOOP Fri 20-Apr-12 13:44:22

I like to think that I'm not easily ruffled. Before the day is through, I may lose my cool...is that counter wotsit or not? confused

jeni Fri 20-Apr-12 13:38:26

jing you are obviously very polite to all!

Is that counter enough?

SOOP Fri 20-Apr-12 13:32:43

Greatnan wink

IAMJINGL We haven't met but

"You are awful but I like you!"

kittylester Fri 20-Apr-12 09:43:27

iamjingl are you sure that was counter to the usual? grin

syberia Fri 20-Apr-12 09:37:45

iamjingl I love how you always make me laugh grin

iamjingl Fri 20-Apr-12 09:34:24

Obligatory grin

iamjingl Fri 20-Apr-12 09:34:08

that today is Global Counter Culture day.

Apparently you should do something, well, counter to the usual.

The vicar on the radio suggested being nice to someone who doesn't like you much.

Hello Greatnan. I really love you. smile xxx
