Where?

You sound just like another poster you know......wind people up, get a reply you didn't expect in a discussion between people that doesn't concern you, then run around screaming...........he called me names, he called me names.

Point out the name I called you and then we can discuss it ad infinitum!


Secondly, and I have already touched upon this...............what has this got to do with you?


By all means discuss the issue in hand, but do you really need to discuss if I quote someone or not?

Next you will be telling me to use the Queens English (a person incidentally who is GERMAN!)


Now please, please, please leave me be!

Hurricane, you really take my breath away, Stravinsky has asked us to not to let things get out of hand and you have blatantly ignored his request with a torrent rant. I may have missed read your previous post but my intepretation of it was that you likened me to a Forum Nazi and yes in my opinion that is name calling. Having already voiced my views regarding the Queens English I would never dream of suggesting to anyone that they should worry about their grammar.

May I offer an olive branch to you and say lets try and start again and in return you could maybe click upon my scales and say you agree with this post.

I don't understand this bit about a country must speak the Queen's English! What's the big issue about learning a new language.....it's not difficult.

I agree , but in "Petes World" everything is made to be easy peasy for the residents , if they have to take time to learn a language its time that could of been spent fishing or Cruising on your boat in the harbour etc etc..
