The day after posting this, up pops a little message in my box.
Odd, Jaysay isn't in the habit of messaging me much.
Opens message.
'Dear Andrew'!!!!!!!!!
It then goes on to give sensitive details of the current state of play regarding the Conservative candidate short-list.
Who said lightning couldn't strike twice?
John, thank you. I'm laughing so much l'm crying, and am in danger of hyper-ventilating.
I can't think straight at the moment, and don't know rules regarding publishing personal messages, or is that just karma?
Who cares I'm sure I'll be able to release the information somehow.
:s
Just checked.
Personal messages can't be posted in public.
Anyone wanting to know the information in the message sent to me, but meant for andrewb, just message me, and l'll personally give you the jist.
'A' is quite near 'g' in the alphabet.
It's an easy enough mistake to happen....twice.
|
Well you suggest I did it yesterday so I did, if you think I did that by mistake your thicker than I through you were
Lightening doesn't strike twice Rindi if you think it does join the Labour Party they're very gullible :t ongueout

I'm all for bending rules though so do carry on. It looks like it was all set up to make you look stupid anyway. Actually, it is quite amusing that you yourself pointed out how far away 'a' and 'g' are from each other, especially as anyone who has used this PM system would know that even hitting 'a' or 'g' would then involve you specifically selecting a person... and yet you still feel that it was a mistake rather than something suspicious...

How I'd love to receive another 'Doo-doo' message, addressed to andrewb, but sent to myself in error.
You've wiped it from your memory?
It was the one in which you said you'd warned andrewb about not using the Freedom of Information Act to look into councillor's expenses, because Peter Britcliffe would end up in the 'Doo-doo'.
Any more interesting messages gratefully recieved c/o garinda's messages at Accy Web.

Its when I read this post of yours Rindi that I wondered if you would be silly enough to think I'd do it twice, evidently you are are that silly

I didn't use any quotation marks, so the loose interpretation of how it began and ended, is breaking no rules.

Sadly the answer is evidently yes.
The pathetic reasoning that it was somehow a bluff, is risible.
Keep backpedaling.
I wonder if HisMastersVoiceHBC would like to read it, and decide as to whether it's content should be made public?

The fact that Garinda did not consider that you could have ever been so devious does him credit.
The fact that you were so devious (if what you say you did is correct) then it discredits you.
All this deviousness about is very destructive for good communication between all of us

Rindi dragged the issue up regarding me send a PM to him meant for someone else, didn't want to disappoint so I sent him the bogus one for a laugh, but never thought he was gullible enough to think I'd do it again, seems I was wrong, next time I'll tell him the moons made of green cheese, it isn't really

Lol.. you're gullible even after you've been told? Gets better and better.
I know it's not often that you own up to being wrong, but perhaps now is that time, instead of digging yourself a deeper hole. Silly billy.

It looks like at least one party are incapable in the forthcoming General Election in Hyndburn, of putting up a good clean fight.
Still, even common rats will attack, when backed into a corner, with no means of escape from a situation.
I'm thankful that I've never been a member of any political party, especially when they have to resort to such dirty tricks.
Though in this case I'm 100% convinced this was just another extraordinary blunder, covered by a lot of old guff after the event.
