As ever :-(( Mike -- -------------------------------------- Royal Naval Electrical Branch Association www.rnshipmates.co.uk www.nsrafa.com "shazzbat" wrote in message ... SNIP You've got some neck. You slag off me and others for suggesting that Bob's post, whilst perfectly correct, could have been put more gently, and here you are claiming that part of it which you can't even quote correctly would set 'anyone's' teeth on edge. So 10 out of 10 for tact and diplomacy for you, I don't think. No part of Bob's post set my teeth on edge, and it's not for you to speak for all of us. You are beyond belief. More snippage, especially your ludicrous tirade. Steve |

You slag off me and others for suggesting that Bob's post, whilst perfectly correct, could have been put more gently, and here you are claiming that part of it which you can't even quote correctly would set 'anyone's' teeth on edge. Not really, no. I'm not actually claiming that at all. (see below) So 10 out of 10 for tact and diplomacy for you, And 0 out of 10 for percepetiveness for you. I don't think. No part of Bob's post set my teeth on edge, Full marks there. Indeed it won't have set anyone's* teeth on edge. One word , five letters, first letter "i". Or if you're an American, seven letters, first letter "s". * apart that is, from the exceptions detailed below. The point was, that that was the next thing Bob was going to be accused of, by someone or other. That was the intention of the "clearly". That there are quite possibly lurkers out there in cyberspace who eats nails for breakfast, who would be the next to pipe up in direct opposition to the charges which you have already been levelled against Bob's post. In this case, that that introductory sentence simply wasn't hard hitting enough. That it was much too "soft" and "fluffy" The penny dropped yet, has it ? .... and it's not for you to speak for all of us. .... I certainly wouldn't want to speak for you, or anyone else under any circumstances. In fact, least of all you. You can be certain of that. .... You are beyond belief. .... You're entitled to believe what you wish. Some people do believe the strangest things. .... More snippage, especially your ludicrous tirade. .... There was no "ludicrous tirade". Just a straightforward question So please don't think for one moment that you're simply going to duck out of this with your head held high, as a result of failing to see a joke. Or perhaps that's the way you always conduct yourself in life is it? By simply running way from things ? You make these sniping, so-called "constructive criticisms" of yours - not that we've actually seen any constructive suggestions of course - from behind the safety of a hedge. And then try to run away. - "More snippage" indeed - whenever you're called on them. So here it is again. Part of this "ludicrous tirade" of mine, and the question you ran away from. How long more in your estimation will Bob need to spend in tidying up this list of his ? To make it sound more friendly and unlikely to cause any offence to anybody ? Another half hour perhaps, making an hour in total. Or maybe another hour making it an hour and a half overall ? And as matter of interest, given that you're clearly intent on offering constructive criticism, what particular format do you think it would it be best for Bob to adopt ? Do you think he should abandon the list idea in the final draft and recast it into one long piece of prose for instance ? More informal certainly, but potentially more confusing. What do you think of that idea? I don't really see how you can have any possible objection to answering such simple questions. Do you? Given that, as you say, your only intention was to offer a bit of "constructive criticism". Because to be honest, its all been a bit negative and vague from you up to now, I hope you'll agree. michael adams .... Steve |

Poor Bob honestly - they all need a good dig, if you ask me, just like the one I did on Sunday. I'm so pleased with the results. I think I'll put up a photo soon. Off to order some elephant garlic. Yes Uncle, this one's just fab for roasting - fantastic with roast puds, carrots, parsnips ... Perhaps I should eat something now before .... grabs purse - runs out |

Bob Hobden happens to make a very valuable contribution to this Newsgroup. And as such, he is not deserving of having his posts subject to innacurate and gratuitous criticism by the likes of the Courageous Paul Corfield "Sweary Mary's" friend from the motorcycle group, who has already run off. Or Shazzbat here, who also looks in the process of doing likewise. Even it were the case that any of these criticisms were justified, which in this case they were manifestly not, whether you happen to like it or not "Uncle Marvo", the morale of the posters in any NewsGroup who make the most valuable contributions, happens to be worth far more to the continuance of that NewsGroup, than is any non-existent offence that might have been caused to some hypothetical lurkers who have yet to make their presence felt. And as such, such valuable contributors deserve to be defended. Of course you're totally free to post whatever material you wish into unmoderated NewsGroups "Uncle Marvo", as you probably know. However you'd probably do better sticking to what you appear to do best. Which by all accounts, appears be flooding the NewsGroup with the largely off-topic witterings of someone who it would seem, has rather too much time on their hands. michael adams .... |

You come into threads with your one liners which usually are 100% off topic and always pointing your severe finger at someone, archiving people's quote to vomit them later on as if you were some sort of referee. Who do you think you are talking to a nice chap like this? Uncle never said a word about Bob. Why are you so detestable with him, suddenly? |

He questioned my defending Bob Hobden in the way that I did. Something that was nothing whatsoever to do with him. Just as what I choose to post in response to your new, and by the looks of things only, best friend, "Uncle Marvo" here, has got absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with you. hth michael adams .... |
