AHA!

[bubbly jock]

do i care if you think otherwise? not a feckin bit, does your opinion concern me? no feckin chance!!!

Applies to most of us so we agree on something.

But I am not in agreement at my answers being downgraded to a site that would appear to be dedicated to yourself I will gracefully retire from this thread and leave you and your fan club to spat it out.

I would hate to be accused of guilt by association.

If you are interested to find out who I am,then 5 minutes spent going through my previous posts will reveal all.
Not only will you find surname,age,which buiding I was born,name of siblings still in town,some of the jobs I had before leaving.You will also find the name of the local girl I married on the day we left.There is also pictures of both of us as teenagers,and as we are now.

So if you are interested, it is all there for your purusal.

Who knows we might even be related

[gizmo]

Been perusing for 20 minutes know where you lived till 7 and the maiden name of your wife, but no closer to your name sorry... but now I will have to go and paint the fence.

sorry if you feel your remarks have been downgraded bubbly, thats got nothing to do with me and i'm just as puzzled, probably due to someone having the same idea as you and having a dig rather than sticking in the general area of the topic, that matter was quickly remedied and we had all moved back to the topic, then you posted your comment, i stupidly replied ,rather than ignoring it and someone from above decided to hoist that whole section and place it here.

if i wanted a post all about me, i'd write one, no need for anyone else to comment, but i think thats called a blog, no point in doing that as i have one elsewhere which would be of little interest to you unless you wanted my recipe for lentil soup or smoked fish, tho you canna go wrong with either. i'm only here to do what everybody else does, the fact that you or anybody else objects to me doing this is not my concern, nor will i lose sleep over it, the intellectual content of your posts may indeed have the opposite effect.

i had a good day today, great company, intelligent conversation on a topic i hold dear, a joy to share just some of the passion that four young campbeltown boys have for music, i just wish i had shared their passion when i was the same age, now i look forward to doing it all again tomorrow, so well worth missing two days on a beach for, how was your day? equally enlightening i hope?

Okay, I admit... I'm one of the General Jack fan club.

Sounds like you had a great day today general!

My visit to Campbeltown last week was for reasons which were extremely sad .
The visit to Gen Jack helped put a wee bit of cheer back into my life that morning , but a cup of tea would have been nice ( or were you frightened that I would bend your spoons ).
Thanks for your time General Jack , that initial pause when you didn't recognise me was priceless , I'll bring my kids next time and they can test out your climbing rig if that's OK.
All the Best

Can I just query the title of this thread?

Doesn't appear to make much sense to me!

[general jack o'niell]

caught!!!! i admit it did take me a second, and apologies for the lack of tea, i've been scolded already for my lack of manners, saying that, i did let my visitor the next day in and gave him coffee and it was nearly four hours later before we realised how much time had past.

as for the mention of me enjoying my day at the weekend? it was great, two brilliant days spent in the company of four young men(and a couple of not so young men) who share and to many degrees exceed my passion for music, playing it, talking about it, teaching it. you would never know it was their first attempt at such an undertaking, their depth of knowledge astounded me

i look forward to the next one and to singing with the melons, they did promise me
