Has Nigel Lawson lost it?

[Flosshilde]

By all means, jean, if you really feel the dire necessity to start yet another tiresome thread on the subject, though that has always appeared to be the main role and prerogative of one of our more ubiquitous members,

I didn't think you'd been around here long enough to know that, PG?

I didn't have to be ...

I didn't have to be ...

I don't know if you've been around long enough to know, so I'll fill you in. This forum is essentially a faux-left ventilation facility for sepia-tinged socialists and under-achievers. Scotty Celt (bless him!) and a few others, unknowingly provided the oxygen for the pastime.

Several months have passed since his departure. The others of the non-left/Liberal type also left, or were driven out (I returned with som extra punctuation).

In the absence of a 'Scotty Celt', they have invented you!

Stick around for the excellent music commentary from the nasal-hair brigade - it's worth all the hassle!

I didn't have to be ...

I think you did, unless you have been burrowing away sedulously in the archives.

And if you have, you certainly wouldn't be treating us to faux-naiveté such as this:

Amateur51's connection with 'echt' and 'scotty' is. I can only surmise, some sort of obscure reference to a tiny village in Aberdeenshire?

I still don't believe you're the real thing, though. Probably one of the others.

Well at least there is a measure of welcome agreement here but I do feel real ... honestly!

Referring to me as 'one of the others', though, does make me feel really special.

Maybe I should have joined as A. N. Other and then the other others would have left me alone, knowing I wasn't really real and therefore posed no real threat to their almost unreal sensitivities ... ?

faux-left

HA HA

Like an 8 year old saying "Bum" to his grandparents you have a new phrase to trot out

Keep it up Oxoboy

I love your image of a Wicker Man style group chasing Peester, Simon and Scotty to the edge of the cliff singing "Summer is iccumen in"

[Ferretfancy]

Let's have another Gay Marriage thread. That should clarify things.

Well, I think PG is rather a sweetie, and not half so barmy as Scotty, but I'm spoken for.

( Oh God! Is this grooming?)

Thank you kindly, Ferretfancy, that is most flattering ...

That Scotty certainly sounds completely barmy to me and I can well understand how the poor likes of amateur51 and Flosshilde must have suffered greatly at the hand of his poisonous prose. Good riddance, I say!

If I have interpreted your post correctly, I'm absolutely delighted that you are spoken for, I have to say ... so many good wishes!

I suppose it's possible that he is scottycelt, but has undergone some form of conversion - like, over the goalposts...

Lol!

But, it's not far off the mark!

I think you better get back on the wagon
