Thanks, Dan (my English OH), Sally (my English friend) - but really, most days I can deal with this sort of post and recognise it for the  that it is.

I took it as humour, Hazel Hollow 

Thanks almost everyone for all your kind words - tizaala was right (patronsing old git icon here and  ) - I spat out the dummy. Head now duly patted and feeling  .

Nice one

Glad you took it the way it was meant, It's not the people that get us wound up, it's the governments. And you know 99% of my posts are    anyway . I think I can say we all love Rosemary and Dan and are grateful for all their hard work.

Dan  i am curious as to why my tongue in cheek comments put me in the gutter when blatant racist anti English comments in other posts go unchecked.

Point out to me the blatant anti english comments please.

<sigh> I've had the same endless exchange with Bodger. Please point out the 'blatant racist anti English comments' and we can deal with them. You're making serious allegations without providing any evidence.

'Tongue in cheek'? Maybe you should familiarise yourself with the smiley for that, or did your hand slip and you got 'stirring' instead?

Yes, and me. I haven't seen any and I am English.


Rosemary, I think it was very gracious of you to apologise when you hadn't actually done anything wrong.

What I find sad....is that IMO only...I may stress....and my perception of the way the thread was going.....that it is.the wrong person apologising.....impassioned yes......a little strong   yes maybe.......but the other contender was just downright belligerent and not for the first time.......

I hope this is an end to it all...

Well, Padge, it's transferred to another thread on Scottish independence 

I will lock this one - thanks for kind words. Much appreciated.
