Another myth. Have a nice day (lol) Sorry my mistake I forgot how pedantic you are *-)........its a lay mans term ;-)..............by which I meant your suggestion, that the 33 teenage Inca bodies could be all murderers who had been executed...........is barking :D Its some what Ironic though that a thread about the pope includes human sacrifice 8-)............. Sorry, my mistake - I thought you might have a sense of humour (lol) (lol) (lol)

Probably the presence of John47, that would be enough to push anyone over the edge. ;-) And wait till his Spanish internet connection realises he's streaming radio data at about 57 Mb an hour,about half a gig per day assuming what he says is correct, that he really is in Spain, and not walled up in the UK like the rest of us. >:-) No bodies littering the region as far as I can see (lol) and we pay £20 per month for unlimited internet connection so all is well thankyou very much. Sea temperature a bit cool though - I suppose you can't have everything! You should try it down here, it might make you a bit less miserable (lol) You won't see no bodies in your motor on the net will you john ? The longer you stay inside there the safer and happier the locals will be If you want to start a debate about bodies, I recommend you get in touch with pelemetman - he seems to be obsessed with human sacrifice (lol) (lol) (lol)

Do I detect a note of jealously? Btw, I am most definitely a carnivore, favour red wine over white, would never sully it with additives and regard just one glass of it as an insult. But apart from that......................................I'll give you 5/10 for the rest (lol) Btw, it isn't a holiday; its a way of life :-D

Or stuff like the protestant / catholic sh*t NI way. By the way you'd think John47 would let the forum users know how he gets unlimited broadband in Spain for £20 a month. might be handy for those that venture down there and also want to listen to radio 4 from dawn till dusk ;-)

You turn up at Cabo de Gata campsite, you get a ticket for anything between one day and threee months and away you go. I don't know anything about the technical aspects but I do know that virtually everybody down here has their computers on all day (and no they aren't inside all day either!). My understanding is that this is possible at most campsites. You need to get out more!

I'm trying to visualise you listening to that boring radio 4 stuff all day, mind you womans hour is probably a highlight of the day for you, or the Archers a tale of everyday ****ry folk, apologies for my spelling. I think your admission of having it on all day speaks volumes, no one want's to come near you for a real chat. >:-) mind you even if they did and you spoke to them as you do on here, I think you'd be nursing a bloody nose most of the time. What is it they say,once bitten twice shy.
Guest pelmetman Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Back on topic ;-).............. Argentine president Cristina Kirchner has asked Pope Francis to help defuse the long-running dispute over the Falkland Islands. Mrs Kirchner said after she met the Argentine-born Pope at the Vatican that she has asked for his intercession to "facilitate dialogue" over the islands, which Argentina claims and calls the Malvinas. Just last week, Prime Minister David Cameron said he does not agree with Francis's views on the Falklands. When the new Pope was archbishop of Buenos Aires, he had been quoted as saying that Britain "usurped" the remote islands. Earlier this month, the islanders voted overwhelmingly to remain a British Overseas Territory. It is not known how Francis responded to Mrs Kirchner's request. Now we all know who's side he's on................didn't take long did it *-)
Guest 1footinthegrave Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 I've just realised I don't give a roodoo about the new pope, or the Falkland Islands, I'll bow out now >:-)

Guest 1footinthegrave Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Yeah of course you do, that's why you spend all day listening to radio 4, and in between spend the rest of your day on here, by any measure that sounds pretty pathetic. I think that's why you've got a distinctly bad attitude, despite what you may say you haven't got a life at all pal, other to pick flies out of others, I mean, what the heck does it matter, what perverse pleasure does it give you.
John 47 Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 1footinthegrave - 2013-03-18 6:54 PM Yeah of course you do, that's why you spend all day listening to radio 4, and in between spend the rest of your day on here, by any measure that sounds pretty pathetic. I think that's why you've got a distinctly bad attitude, despite what you may say you haven't got a life at all pal, other to pick flies out of others, I mean, what the heck does it matter, what perverse pleasure does it give you. Since you are on here more than I am there is a certain irony in your comments, don't you think? And as for bad attitudes, well the reason I chose to intervene in the first place was because you and a few others were displaying such bad attitudes that I couldn't just sit on the sidelines. If it is displaying a bad attitude to say that making sweeping generalisations without evidence is bad; or to say that to tar all members of a community with the same brush if a few of them do bad things is bad; or to say that people should think before they condemn; or that people should be judged on what they say and do not on the basis of what others have done - well in that case I assume I have a bad attitude.................in the eyes of a handful of very strange people indeed. Off to the bar soon, where people have such bad attitudes they actually think I'm normal! (lol)
