[QUOTE=GEaston;1066688]Retlaw and Barrie can make libellous statements about me in a public forum QUOTE]


Then sue me if I have made any a libellous statement about you. I have not made any statement whatsoever naming you - obviously your ego is greater than your reading ability and your common sense.

Well Rettie - if you don't go around with your eyes shut then I guess you stole the blinkers off DPs horse that went galloping past.

You know, if the last few pages have taught us anything, it's possibly the reasons why bankers managed to screw up our country so badly and why they shouldn't be allowed to play with anything sharp

Re: Town Centre Changes

Grum - you clearly think that the members here should be grateful that you are spending your ill gotten bankers bonuses on renovating neglected properties in order to make profit from that neglect. Money gains nothing sitting in a bank - you know that because you were part of the system that caused that situation.

Forelock tugging may still be practiced in far flung outposts of the empire, but not here.

We have had 100 years pass since the industrial revolution started - here. We know that 'money talks' and 'where there's muck there's brass' but there comes a point when the 'great unwashed working class' recognise when grovelling is expected - and refuse to do it.

Margaret, you have sussed the cut of his jib.......and while I would not have addressed him as 'Grum' you have taken my thoughts and put them in a post.

He makes it sound like he is doing the whole town up.......doing us all a lot of favours, when in actual fact he is making money...he may tell us that he isn't, but what business man would invest in something if there was no earthly chance of a profit?

Agree with all you have said except for the highlighted section - accidents do happen

Re: Town Centre Changes

Hi Marge,

Of course there's a chance I'll make a profit. You can be sure I'm not investing in the community for the benefit of the friendly folk on this forum.

As I've said before you all need something to moan about, and it may as well be my efforts. If it wasn't me it'd be something else that was wrong - probably find reason to complain that the sun is shining...... ah, sorry you've already done that.

Fortunately I don't think this forum is very representative of the town. Seems it's reserved for the white over 60s many of whom carry a chip on their shoulders for some reason, and of course that would be caused by someone else. Could be politicians, bankers, councilors, the youth of today, muslims, the sun coming out, immigration, you name it the problem is caused by someone else.

I've made this point before, but how come noone has anything positive to say at all about anything ?
