    Ohhhhhhh, the sincerity and passion on your indignant reply day after day after day after day after week after week after week after week, after month after month after month after month after year after year after year................


    Is the easiest thing in the world to set you same guys off into a rant, will let you get on with again ALL DAY:rotfl: Try and get off your high horses once in a while.


    I'm not being indignant or ranting, you are over estimating your importance to me, you wouldn't be worth ranting about, you don't mean anything to me, I'm about to take my dog for a walk in the sunshine, you won't feature in my thoughts in a few mins. I think deep down you must realise that you are the one that is in the wrong here, you must be very unhappy to come on here this morning and behave in the way that you have done so. The worst part is that you don't even appear to realise that you are doing it. So I'm not angry at you, I actually feel very sorry for you, I wouldn't wish your situation on my worst enemy. My brother in law is sectioned, I see a lot of your characteristics in him, and I know from my experiences with him, that it isn't a good place to be in life.

    Sadly there is nowhere to go(violins out), I post a lot on social issues, History(very passionate) and the general economy, there are great places to discuss that, property is the one area where people just will not act in a civil manner.. BUT HEY!!, maybe that is a message in itself.

    It seems to me that you're the only one on this thread who isn't posting in a civil manner.

    Is that how you post on other forums about social issues, history and the general economy? I assume not if you are treated in a civil manner in those discussions. Perhaps you should use the same posting style in here and you'd get on a bit better?

    ...until, of course, you have to get out one of those little plastic bags and pick something up.....

    You seem to be coming from a point of view that all of the Forums actually matter? They don't!

    They are simply talking shops ... just like the Sunday morning 10am debate on BBC1 ... talk talk talk and have absolutely no influence at all.

    If you want to make a difference, join a pressure group, a union, a group of like minded.

    Just typing words on a forum any forum, is of no consequence at all in the scheme of things ..... yes, you may wind someone up and take entertainment from it - but never kid yourself that it matters one jot.

    It's all daft really anyway - those with the loudest voices tend to live in London; anybody moaning about house prices is told to move to Middlesboro (where there are no jobs). And then there's a lot of willy waving and it's time for a new thread.

    Exactly. Why change a winning formula? ;)

    And away goes the armchair internet hardman, just tragic and sad.. the sooner the internet is regulated for with signatures on what is written the sooner runts like you will climb back under their little frightened rocks

    Nothing "hard" about it. Just pointing out that wherever you go you get banned. What's the common link?

    Well there goes one illusion...

    You'll be telling me next there is no tooth fairy.

    But I will argue that one to the death. I know the tooth fairy exists. It charges people like me £3,000 for an implant, and then doles the money out to the very young when their milk teeth fall out.

    So never tell me I'm not doing anything to support the younger generations.....

    There's a variety of differing opinions on here regarding property prices. That's no different to any facet of life. Wouldn't life be boring if we were all politically indocrinated stooges. That blindly followed a set script without ever challenging and questioning anything by debating topics in an adult fashion. Plenty of kindergardens around if you merely wish to throw your toys out of the pram.
