If it helps, locking the thread and not giving the ending away seemed like a good idea to me.. :?

fair enuff, wot else have you done on your skool holidays? camped out at martins the stationers waiting for the book to go on sale? no? spose not, you'd know the end by now and wouldn't care otherwise.

ok, right, to keep the peace and baring in mind i never started that thread, maybe just maybe a few posters can't be trusted, need to get a wee bit of special attention, be pandered to and as such shouldn't be upset by running the risk of them seeing the end of a bloody childrens book, yes, a childrens book, you know, meant for children and special needs adults who have to stop playing dungeons and dragons to give me gip, while not having a marathon starwars weekend, you know man, like really cool, and if luke skywalker came to my door like, it would be like really out of like this like world man!!!

and if mamma cass had like shared her sandwich, like man, cosmic

i give up, please don't refer to me, mention me or mail me, you are obviously all too young for me to talk to, i'll get accused of grooming next, i i have two kids of my own if i want a juvinile approach to a topic, no, wait, they're both more mature, too mature to be bothered about harry potter, they think it's for kids, yes the youngest is 11, she's too old for that

oh and the spider dies in charolettes web, and a pig in a blanket? its actually reconstituted chicken, ans sweltered is really me, travelling forward thru time five years just to mess you all up, i better away and get into my time machine and get back to 2002, now i'm confused!!!!

who am i really? quiet in the cheap seats!!! i'm off to potter about outside

exspelliarsemusk!!!!!!!

If you change the word "Grocer" for "General" then this brilliant song from 1967 by Keith West could apply to our very own "Jack",especially the verse..............

"People cry and walk away
and think about that fateful day
now they wish they'd given Jack
more affection and respect"

Do'nt you think the young "General" in his Horizon heyday has a strong resemblance to Keith West?? Its probably the hair. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

WHO SHOUTED DRIVEL???

PS.........Who gets killed in HP??
I know my Summer'll never come
I know I'll cry until my dying day has come
Let the Winter roll along

I think posting this on your profile may have given you identity away. I KNEW you would jump on that HAHAHA.

Victimised, no don't belive so.

Look back at some of your previous posts, I did, there's planty you snapped at other than me.

As usual, you don't read and digest, I put that in a seperate paragraph to disassociate it from my reply to you, guess you didn't get that...go figure



Ok.
1. Given my identity away??? The domain name has been there since i joined the forum for anyone to see. I even had it as my signature in the early months of my membership.
2. If you don't feel victimised, stop complaining its not fair, when someone disagrees with either your view or your brothers view. You keep pointing out it is a forum, so not everyone will share your view.
3. Point me in the direction of these posts please, as i fear you could be correct and i may have to apologise to anyone i have offended. And as you know.. when i in fact do get it wrong i admit it publicly.

GJO - Instead of have a comment for everything, why not contribute to the forum? It is apparent you have the time.

Anyway, how is Campbeltown today? I miss the webcam :!:


If there are only 10 posters posting regularly, kind of hard not to look like they are hogging.

I miss the webcam too... but I think that won't be long.

That's why I wasn't referring to you, I knew your name....and I explained that I wasn't referring to you, how many times do I have to say so.

Have a look at the Golf Course thread for starters.

I'm not complaining about people disagreeing with me, it's the manner in which it is done. I may bite, but only when bitten first. I don't care if someone disagrees with me, many do. Bobbie for example has disagreed with me on many occassions, but does so in a sensible manner. Others don't. I don't know where you get the idea that I have a problem with those who disagree with me. As for my brother he can speak for himself.

So where is my appology then? If you have do so already and I missed it I appologise :wink:

ACTually.. to be honest.. it was kind of strange to block the thread. ACTually.. I think a lot of us thought it was a little too much. Both the removal and the response were too strong. This is ridiculous.

I am going to reveal it now! The END OF HARRY POTTER SAYS: THE END

There... now can we get on with it.

Malky and Davie do a great job. Without the General (even if he goes off on a tangent sometimes) and sweltered and myself I might add and others who "hog everything," this forum wouldn't have continued into the huge site it is... People would post one or two sentences about the weather and come back next week expecting a reply.

You can't hog a conversation on the forum. Everyone has equal time and space.

No it doesn't :P

Wouldn't it have been better to put a tag on the post title saying something like "MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS" or something rather than just locking it?

As for the suggestion that no-one on here should be bothered about "a kids book", who says it's only adults who read the forum, or that adults have no right to read any book they choose?

General, your the doags baa's ye certainly know how to stir up a hornets nest, but having said that you sure can talk some pi-sh at times, but so can I.
However when your the only one on here thats starting threads,a and adding post to other threads, then dont listen to what all the other do-gooders are saying, there is always room in any forum for a rebel, and dont let 1 or 2 off the goody goodies even put a seed of ( what am I doing here) doubt into yur head.
As for locking the thread. Pi-sh thats what that is, but if you had even a wee bit oh brain between them big ears of yours, then Speakers Corner was the place for it.
Oh and by the way Twiggy, it was'nt the pie's, its those feckin cream cakes.

No offence towards Malky/Davie P. and the other admins who do a great job to keep it up and running,but without Gen Jack's unique humour on everyday happenings,I for one would be long gone.


Eh Bill, I honestly have to laugh at this.... :lol: :lol: :lol:
