I have rejoined just to ask this question.

[hathorisaskingaquestion]

Why are some members of this site allowed to get away with persistently being vile, pushing an agenda, defending the indefensible, upsetting other members, twisting versions of events and generally being nasty, and they do not get banned?

Not about any one particular poster, but I have noticed that some stronger "personalities" on here seem to be Teflon coated.

Why is this?

Why do the owners of this site want that kind of vile poster and do not seem to care about the number of truly decent kind posters who are being upset and driven off the site?

They're fings wot you hold gas in.

I never read the book but saw the film. Maureen Lipman was in it. Quite shocking iirc (backstreet abortion and all that).

Yup it was. But the bit that sticks out for me was the lollipop
was Maureen Lipman Mrs BT woman?

Yes re Maureen.

Oh christ - of course I know what a gas works is.

I thought you were all talking in some kind of code.

I'm sorry for any of you who have been caught up in the aftermath of that explosion.

A Taste of Honey is good for a rainy afternoon, piles of toast and a pot of tea.

Jimmy: I dreamt about you last night - fell out of bed twice!

Geoffrey: Do you like me more than you don't like me or do you not like me more than you do?
Jo: Now you're being Irish

Jo: I'm not sorry and I'm not glad.

Oh shit sorry I didn't know you were talking about that! I hope you're ok

Yes that's how I feel.

For some reason I thought you were doing a tufty and talking about caravans or something.

Fuck knows why in my head gas holders = caravans.

GetOrf, we are bad, insensitive people.

I think we are just mad.

Completely on the ball when it comes to trolleys on trains, but oblivious when people all around us are talking about gas explosions.

What has Wexford to do with all this?

I think we are all on seperate threads

I think all the goings on over the last few days have driven us over the edge.

Let's hope we're never on a train together and it explodes. We's be sitting on the grassy bank inventing a new trolley.
I don't know about Wexford. Isn't there an Inspector?
I must go to bed.

missed the explosions - hope you are ok Jardin

What - Inspector Wexford.

It's all gone a bit Ruth Rendell Pete Tong on MN lately.

TSC introduced Gorey in Wexford - as the site of possible explosion???

um.

Some houses look scarily close to the fire. It must have been terrifying for the poor people living nearby.

Are you going to be able to go home tonight, Funnys? Hope you are ok. and have got your OFRS with you, just in case

Aha thanks TSC. Not a million miles from Gorey myself and thought I'd missed something.

I don't even know where Wexford is.

Is it Dorset? Or kent?

"Why are some members of this site allowed to get away with persistently being vile,.." I do aspire to being worse than vile, but no-one has the aesthetics to appreciate vile-plus. Sorry.

Wexford? It's in Lincolnshire. hth.

Wexford is in SE Ireland - a popular weekend spot for Dubliners.

They call them the Wexicans

Fucking hell what is wrong with my brain

Gas holders = caravans
WExford = dorset
