Man it's quiet tonight
apart from the raging argument going on in b69's thread, at least.

Today has been a near perfect day, with sun and a stroll through the grounds of Cragside House with the family. I now have wine. My day is only slightly sullied by the fact that I know Clendrix will be upset offline because the footy didn't go her way. I like Clendrix, she bakes nice things, sometimes using the contents of my kitchen like some demented Masterchef contestant. Equally, however, I know that this result will please Tightly and al, both of whom are fine chaps what I also know and like IRL. The miles that seperate us are a source of constant annoyance to me.

I therefore declare myself to be neutral on the matter of today's result, in the hope that I don't upset anyone online. How was your day?

Evening DG
I flew back up from Bristol, where it was sunny and warm, to Glasgow, where it was even sunnier and warmer. Although since I was flying, the flight was of course late as these things always are.

Also, I hate summer. Just wanted to put that out there.

But you're pleased Blackburn held Man U to a draw right?
(Bazongaloid, Sun 11 Apr 2010, 20:34, Reply)

But of course.
Hating Man U is second only to hating Sunderland for a Toon supporter, you know.

Actually, we may potentially plan a London trip later in the year (after our hols in August, that is) specifically for bashage purposes. Need to sort finances out though. Step one of that is giving up the fags... 1 week today, still don't fancy one.

around his MOCK INTERNET OUTRAGE at our MOCK INTERNET OUTRAGE and whether or not any of us are in fact outraged, or even on the internet.
(Bazongaloid, Sun 11 Apr 2010, 21:15, Reply)

I think you are right
however, I'm struggling to make up my mind whether I think he had a point.

b69's post didn't come across as tongue-in-cheek, and it's not much of a stretch to think that based on past form it's exactly what he thinks, but I suspect that in the same situation most wouldn't get the response he'd got.

I don't really find anything wrong with that though :-D
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Sun 11 Apr 2010, 21:17, Reply)

In my opinion
No, he isn't. I don't think B69's post was particularly offensive, it was akin to me thinking this afternoon, after a tractor pulled out in front of me when I was having fun driving back from Cragside "Well, that's fucked with my fun". Maybe not on the same scale, but the sentiment was principally the same.

The kicking blaireau has got as a result is more down to who posted, rather than what was posted, in my view. I like al and becky and CHCB et al, I've met them a few times and they are good people. Similarly I've met blaireau a couple of times and have found him to be a decent, likeable chap.

I think a lot of what RadG said made sense; however, I'm not about to start condemning anyone on that thread because, frankly, life is too short. Blaireau's final comment later down the thread should make his feelings on the matter known, and given his connection with Poland, I think he's possibly better placed to comment in the first instance than the majority of us on this forum.

In short, I like everyone. Mostly.
