Re: My introduction
Hello, I visit the temple and Priory at Ulverston and the Peace Cafe. But am not a Buddhist. All change is new change, and sometimes we learn from forced changes. Glad to be a member.

Sounds like you're not even glad to be alive

Well wow, you really know how to make a new member feel welcome don't you?
I didn't say I'd read about buddhism, I just stated what its first noble law is.
Most of my post was just intended to be lightly humourous but you really went for my jugular, didn't you?
And Jaysay popping up there after everything you say, agreeing with you? Hmm, it really gives me the impression that there is a clique operating here and anything I say is going to get jumped on and hammered into the ground.
Yeah, I think I see the score here.
So much for "Welcome to Accyweb!" More like "You are not welcome to Accyweb, the regulars have taken a dislike to you based on the fact that you smell new and different."

Re: My introduction
You said you were only in Accrington because you had fallen on hard times, and you don't like living here.
You described yourself as a moaner.
How much more negative can you get?
If you were just extracting urine, it would have been better not to have done it in your 1st post.

Re: My introduction
Welcome to Accyweb and peace, man. Dig the good vibes.
I couldn't possibly interest you in coming to watch our local football club, could I?

Re: My introduction
I came to Accrington for a family funerl and left a friend. What more can I say. Our reasons for our negative or hurtful stages sometimes lie hidden. To be truthful is better than to be an imposter. Many Accrington people have no choice but to stay and be unemployed, lonely or be individualised. I joined for harmony. The Peace Cafe does give me that as not full of moaners but inspired people. Welcome is a word that is inviting, 'Make' it so says Mr Spock.

Re: My introduction
I too worked with the Gurkhas in Germany and still know a lot of them. Dave, nice to know our lads too. Bielefeld, JHQ, BAOR and AFCENT. Nice to read of you in Germany. Keep up the good work.

Look there are plenty of new folk come on accyweb everyday, Some start off optimistic and become disenchanted after a few posts. You cut through the red tape you came on disenchanted and went down hill from there.

If you haven't read about it, how do you know that any of their laws are 'noble'?

If you were a long suffering accyweb member and you would know jaysays humour.

No you don't know the score, you came on with your form of depressive humour and when it was met with accyweb members humour, something you get to know as you experience it, you spit your dummy out& think everyone is against you, wrong, you started it we just continued with it.
Now either grow a little, have a little patience, get used to us, give us a chance to get used to you, THEN you can spit your dummy out as much as you want.
Or
Go away to some remote corner stick your thumb in your mouth and mumble the mantra of the accyweb calm rooms first noble law:-
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me I think I'll go and eat worms.

I quite agree! I can feel the harmony flowing already. Welcome to Accyweb.
I couldn't possibly interest you in coming to watch our local football club, could I?

Re: My introduction
Standards Wynn ! Relentlessly pursuing new converts, you're like a stick of "Stanley Rock" Hopefully you'll get your disciples. His-Matt the Gurkhas are a fine crowd & they accepted me without reserve despite being different & Exi the same goes for the folk on here don't pre judge, please, take a proper part in it (Accy Web) & see what happens.
