It's a pity I haven't spent more time learning about life from the web instead of relying on practical experience.
Think of how much better off I'd be if my entire life revolved around internet forums....

I wonder how much more the site would benefit with the abscence of patronising politicians?

It's a simple yes/no secret poll.

Above is the first post from this thread, such a long time ago!

Seem to think this internet forum was the be hole and end hole when you were running your anti Britcliffe campaign before you took control of the council, funny how you fell out with it, when all of a sudden you were the ones being asked the questions and you didn't like it

It is my purpose in life to make the masses laugh, thank you sir, of course I did mean be all and end all, but I hadn't finished my first coffee of the day and I was still in the land of Narnia, but I did get my point over

Coffee? You have coffee at your place? Right, I'll remember that next time I come round. Don't suppose you have chocolate chip cookies as well, do you?

Or indeed people who get themselves banned?
You had a few months without me and didn't care for that either, ducking the difficult questions and all that.
Can't live with me, can't live without me.
Aw, bless.

You didn't used to come across with such an overwhelming amount of your self import, but now you don't talk to people so much as talk down to them.
The above quote is an excellent example of you doing just that.
By the way I still think you duck the important questions, I also think you put this type of reply on in an attempt to put a smoke screen between you and answering those questions, but what do I know? I'm only one voter, not even in your ward, hardly worth bothering about.

I knew you could dig yourself a big hole with a shovel, pre-school.
Great places.
Sand pits.
Happily I always knew when it was the wise time to stop digging, when I was in my hole.

How many times have I said that people can ask me questions at any time? I'm not sure how or where I've ducked anything but I'm heartily sick of people such as yourself who seem to regard knocking people's efforts as some sort of constructive sport.
Ask and you shall find.
Be sarky and you shall get what you deserve.

Oh we'd survive.
We used to.
Before some decided to use this forum for their own political ends.
Quite badly, in the majority of cases.
Start off ok.
Rather quickly look rather pathetic.
