Sue, perhaps he isn't welcome ;-)

Amazes me that such a busy professional person (who also sits on various panels/committees/boards) has so much time on their hands to posts insults on GR.

I'm retired so have plenty of time to do that :-D

As I said the other day Rollo.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE LIVING HERE WHY DON'T YOU MOVE TO THE EU.

You may have a better reception over there with your views.

Rolo,

All I can say, apart from agreeing with others, is 'Yaawwnn' - your predictability, insensitivilty and egotism knows no bounds.

"I cannot see any link to the man made tragedy in London though."

Seriously.......you can't?.....


"The Maybot is in need of a fire escape
Looking desperately around the exits are blocked "

So far we've been told of people struggling to get down the one staircase/fire escape which we're told was partially blocked even before the dying started blocking them...

Still can't see why your comments might have offended enough for someone to RR you?

Just in on the evening tide... Chugga Chugga sometimes power craft have their strengths esp when there is not much wind. London tomorrow looks to be a bit sticky so I ll work down here sipping at an ice cold beer lazy Monday afternoon.

When I made my original post about Mrs May I had no idea that the forest fires in central Portugal were so bad. I love the country esp around Porto. So sad, year in year out the life is being sucked out of the lines of hills.

I cannot see any link to the man made tragedy in London though. Like many before her May can best serve her office by leaving it. That is certainly the view of some senior Tories.

I do not myself support any of the English parties they are all living in la la Land. The only one who looks competent is Hammond. Boris would not even pass the low bar for competance set by Abbott.

Ah well tomorrow Davis and co will be engaged in the first minor brexit skirmish. No casualties expected.

A bientot

This, if I had less feeling no empathy and disregard for the happenings not only this week but again today in Portugal where***fire*** has been the cause of untold heartache for so many.
.One could belive posting that might me look a clever but a reality check would make me see what an idiot I'd look on the www.

Perhaps others see no wrong with it.?


Deletion isnt gone into the ether. ;-)

One person seem to think these posts are all about them and their views. WRONG!!! that's very symptomatic of either a control freak or someone who suffers from victim syndrome.

I mentioned my Muslim friends and their feelings, that's MY post.

I mentioned the costs of renting from the privately owned flats in Grenfell Tower, that's MY post.

I take ownership and I stick by what I say. No deleting or amending here.

It's like a kids' playground some days and I feel like holding someone in detention

:-D

Careful now Maggie he's worked out he can delete his own threads/comments but not others. If we c/p his comments all he has to do is RR them to remove them. Genes being their normal self and it being Sunday at best it might get looked at in future days by which time even if it's restored people might not notice his sick comments.

Anyway if that girls club comment was directed at me, like others I'm not in any club paid membership or otherwise. We little girlies can socialise without having to have rigid rules and regulation etc. If you were trying to be sexist by saying girls rather than ladies that's your problem.

As for not being able to pay the subs....are you inferring that myself and others are poor?.......you can be money rich and yet poor in other ways...but me I'm comfortable thanks. :-)

Yes, who is this 'Girls Club'?

Are you making assumptions, Rollo?
Assumptions about my/others' political allegiance?
Dodgy road - I, for one, have not put my view, just C&P'd relevant articles.
Edit: and replied to your insults.

I don't go in for political 'slagging off', well, not on a Genealogical site.
Some of us have the guts to use political forums.

My post - for a 'considered and educated' reply doesn't mention any political view, just questions the validity of your rather boastful and self-centred 'statement'.

Dermot, fret not, she's one of the girls, made of stern stuff so she will grit her teeth and just get on with it without any touchy feely stuff.

She won so she does not need to score any points as Rollo will no doubt tell you. :-D

Now Rollo, I ain't having any of that.

This building was really built as a Girls' Club.

Although I am a sociable person, I have never joined any club at all - not even Brownies or Girl Guides but I was well-impressed by both the building and the kindness of the man who organised the building.

So tell me, you who are so obviously one of the boys, Cubs, Boy Scouts, Venturers then bar room lawyers?

Of course it's 'Tosh' to you Rollo.

Why would you bother listening to anyone else's point of view when yours is the 'right one''.
No considered reply?
I rest my case.

You see, I'd also question your statement:

"Over the last year I have often posted my support for Islamic people living in the middle east and their human right to be accorded refugee status in the EU"

On 8 June, on a post you then deleted you wrote:

"Yes but the two crossed swords are on the Saudi flag for a reason".

This was after decrying Wahhabism - the implication in your post being that the swords represented violence.

I have explained in reply to that post that this flag is the EMBLEM of Saudi Arabia, not the national flag - and provided a detailed account of how the two swords and palm tree came about.
You didn't deem in necessary to thank me for explaining this to you - just ignored it, as it contradicted your (false) view.

Hence your post should read 'my support for SOME Islamic people'.

How long before you delete your comments on this thread too...seems to be a habit lately mass deleting or amending of questionable contents.

Sort of reply you'd expect one word.

And as you haven't denied it you must have RR me...for what exactly?
