Alright, well, we'll return to musical matters at a later date, but if Stanley are your second team, I expect to see on the Clayton End sometime soon. You can even search out Alvin and discuss Yes concept albums at halftime. ;)

So you'll be sticking to ABBA, Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet, then steve;):D

I do have a penchant for the 80's and actually like 'em better know than I did at the time.....I will say no more than that!

Re: Adoption
 

As opposed to the very personal comments he decided to make about someone, and their family, on a public forum?

Re: Adoption
 

Gary, you are like a dog with a bone!!! Can we not let this go? I'm sure people can read my first post and make their own minds up if I was out of order.

Re: Adoption
 

Blimey, lost your sense of humour?

A little gentle teasing only funny, when it's at someone else's expense?

Still, we won't hold it against you.

It's probably genetic.

:rofl38:

Re: Adoption
 

Really don't think I've "teased" anyone in any of my posts. And as I've said a few times now I'm ready to end these tit-for-tat posts.

Re: Adoption
 

What about the person you identified, who you described as 'gay as a lord'?

He might fee he was teased.

Or his family, who you also identified.

Or perhaps any Lords.

Or even any gays.

You can end your contribution to the thread anytime you like.

No one's forcing you to post.

As you're on a certain loser, for your own sake, it's probably wiser to do it sooner, rather than later.

;)

Re: Adoption
 

People read your first post

...and every subsequent poster disagreed with what you said.

Your second post

...was bang out of order because you chose to identify someone, and their family, and discuss their private business.

Your childish 'gay as a lord' comment, was totally irrelevant to the thread's subject, and could be deemed as being offensive, by some.

Re: Adoption
 

I didn't name anyone. Only retold a tale that's 30 odd years old to illustrate a point. Anyone who wants to can look back at the posts and comment and if they think I'm out of order I'll hold my hands up (which I might have already done, I can't even remember now) You seem to thrive on confrontation! I know you don't always have an easy time of it and I have every sympathy but it seems like your taking things out on me a bit. Putting a smiley icon at the end of your posts doesn't make them hurt any less!

Re: Adoption
 

I don't thrive on confrontation.

I feel it necessary to point out when people are known to be wrong, and comment that it certainly isn't right to identify people publicly, and discuss their private lives, without first seeking their permission.

Which I know you haven't done.

Re: Adoption
 

Trust me.

The details you gave easily identified this person, and their family.

This forum is read by many people, and others have identified these innocent people too.

In fact you've created quite a lot of unnecessary upset by what you decided to post, for quite a few people.

Fact.

Re: Adoption
 

Ok then, I don't think I've done much wrong, you do - we'll probably never agree on this one. I offer you an olive branch. There may well be future threads where we unite and take on the world...:D

Re: Adoption
 

Question.

Of which I already know the answer.

How would you feel, if someone identified your child on a public forum, who didn't know them particularly well, and discussed things regarding intimate details of their private life?

That's not right.

With hindsight, I bet you regret doing it.

I don't think you're a bad person, though I do think you were wrong.

Anyway don't fret.

Some of my dearest friends I've had much more vicious spats with, compared to this.

You've done quite well.

Considering your genetic handicap....being a bit thick, when it comes to certain subjects.

;):D

Ya really shouldn't have started the tit for tat posts in the first place steve, after all Rindi is our Tit for Tat member:rolleyes::D
