    I never partake of political, social,or internetal chit chat and small talk and never acknowledge the lewdness and smut that appears all too often in my opinion as I feel it offends and wastes the valuable time of the purists who enjoy reading genuine woodworking related articles.
    I find now that I spend more time looking for and listing said offenders whom I shall report to Mr. along with my recommendation that they be dismissed from the forum thereby giving more quality time to the skilled craftsmen like myself.
    Oh yes, you all know who you are so take heed, your days are numbered and will be wielding the forumular axe very shortly.

    Oh yes Mr Sturdee, you are on the list you Agent Provocateur you and as you will know, very high up on the list. I blame much of the dissent and political diatribe on you,,, where did you go wrong?,,,you showed so much promise once and dare I say,,,you even had great talent. I suspect you were heavily influenced by others who over a period of time dragged you down to their level,,,but now you lead!,,, and with such misguided principles. Its little wonder the wonderful world of wooodworking is beginning to fall into disrepute.
    So, action is required and and his infinite wisdom and staunch sense of right and wrong will come to our rescue,,,sort of like an antipodean Sir George in a way really,,,and show us the light once more. Viva la revolutuion, go getem .

    Well it's 10:45 pm in Sydney, which must mean it's 11.45 am on a Saturday in the UK.
    Why the hell are you wasting your time on an Oz BB instead of being in your well equiped if compact shed? :confused:

    Enquiring minds would like to know

    Beejay, thank you for the compliments, it is much appreciated. However I can't claim all the credit as I have many fellow co-conspirators. I suppose that as Agent Provocateur you'll want to slap me on the wrist with a limp and soggy pancake a la the British style.

    Whilst may be antipodean :eek: , a Sir George he isn't. I think you put too much hope in to help you for, whilst you may live on the wrong side of the world, only lives down the road from us.


    Viva la revolution.
    Hooray, you're seeing the light, of with the royalists heads.

    We may be an inbred bunch, but boreing never, just think of some of the things Daddy has said over the years.

    Dont knock it til you try it, I can assure you a good flogging with a limp soggy pancake is just what this forum needs,,

    As for , I have to say hes proved to be real dispointment to me. He showed his true colours by referring to his "gummies" in his previous response. You turncoat ! They are of course "Wellies" and yes,,,,they too are of course ,,,,British. I'll have to research but I'll be surprised if the pancake wasnt British as well.

    Bob, ive lived over there and Know its much better than here. Im not trying to convert anyone i assure you, just my adolescent sense of humour i guess,so, sensing ive offended you, I apologise and will not refer to "you know where" again. .....

    I love France as well, but I suppose that's out the question?

    As to forums over here, there are as you know quite a few which I did look at and indeed actually joined one. Whilst it was very informative and attended by extremely skilled and experienced members, including one of your own most respected members, I found it to be just a little too conventional for me and thats why I joined your forum. Its got everything a good forum should have, in particular skill, humour, balance and diversity and you cant improve upon that, which is why enjoy it so much.
    Sincerely,
    beejay1

    Don't worry about Bob BJ, he's a prickly old fellow (just check his avatar)

    I for one enjoy your badinage. Keep it up.

    Cheers

    That depends - what's the question? :confused: If it has to do with pancakes I urge you to be very careful with your answer.

    I've never been to France so I don't know if it's out of the question but I love lots of french things.

    For example their wine, their women, their songs, their croissants, their letters and their greatest invention the guillotine.

    I was wondering if that would slip through unnoticed. Maybe that term is no longer used? Kind of shows our age, doesn't it.
