Yes, I too also sh1t posting regret.

Had no idea that Royal Mail was still delivering, but if so, apologies.

Difficult to get the stamp to stick; old lady waiting in queue became v. impatient.

Also piss.

Is it only intellectual people allowed here with military history? I am easy come easy go and I find hi fallouting comments quite rude.
Woah there bessy! Rein in the bad feeling 8O My comments are exactly that, comments. There were some nasty ill thought out words typed by some of the members (new or not) that I personnally found offensive and annoying. That is it! Don't think this is some hate campaign introduced to bring down the newbies :biggrin A Christmas message with a reason why I had posted less that was all 8O What the hell has the military got to do with it :confused .
I am no intellectual, hence having to study at this ripe old age instead of leaving school with a bucket load of O/A levels.
Peace brother :beer:

Happy Christmas all - lets get rid of this white stuff as I'm going stir crazy... :evil:

I'm not familiar with any of the cliques, who is good - who is bad - so I'm a blissfully un-aware newbie. All I know is that as a result of d!ckheads on another site which had best remain nameless, I stopped posting or reading as I thought it was becoming a clique within a clique within a clique. Bunch of playground cyber-tossers.. As soon as you separate site access based on being old-school, you'll quickly lose everyone else as it then becomes a clique....

My opinion, so far - so good. Some great posts when I was having trouble with the bloke I bought the SP from. What you have to remember is that e-mail / posting is difficult to express sarcasm or humour and you only really 'get-it' when you've met the person. Timbo for example who is a great mate that goes back nearly 10 years will know when I'm joking. If I was to post something contentious, he would know immediately if I was taking the pi$$ or really pi$$ed off, no-one else on here would.

Anyways - all the best to all
