Yes it is. Personally I think this is caused by 'deadcat-gate'

Let us analyse the current position.

Over the past few weeks IM and his chum Neil have been chatting a fair bit and been regularly winding up members on other threads on these boards. These wind ups have taken various forms, but usually they are very obvious and fairly harmless.

Then we have the issue on this thread. Neil claims his cat died and posted in a very heartfelt and eloquent manner about his feelings towards said cat. This posting was either a very upset man posting about his beloved cat or a truly excellent (or sick - depending on your point of view) wind up.

IM believes its a wind up, which on past evidence of Neils behaviour, it very possibly could be. Others believe it to be true.

Neil then came on and fired a volley at IM for mocking him. IM still not having any of it, sticking to his wind up belief.

So. What we have here is either a great wind up, or Neil being bitten by the 'boy who cried wolf' scenario. No-one other than Neil really knows at the moment.

Thus the thread is refusing to talk about anything really, never mind the elephant in the room until this matter is cleared up.

If IM apologises to Neil then all would be well, unless Neil was on the wind up all along, in which case he wins and IM bites the pillow.

Oh so tense......

hello people.
1. It was all true. Yes, I like a good leg pulling as the next man, but to joke about something like that is, as you say, extremely sick.
2. I'm slowly getting over it. There's a large hole in my life, but at least this grown man has stopped blarting life Kate Winslet at an Oscars ceremony...
3. What's with all these lurkers?
4. Let's not talk about biting pillows... that's a whole new can of worms we'd be opening up....
5. My US comsulate visit is this Friday! (Got a cancellation) so it's all systems go...

Now, let's get this f'king rate back to somewhere where it's worth talking about!!!

Good to see you back on bondy

A big old fashioned love in sounds good to me!

Right. Assuming my US consulate visit goes well on Friday I'm starting in the US W/C 27th April.

So, we have 4 weeks to get this rate higher!!

1.43 is frankly not good enough!

I'm working on the outskirts of Cincinnati.
Have bought a house in "Maineville". About 25 miles from the center of town

'Maineville' sounds like a small town from a Stephen King novel.
You wanna be careful out there Neil....;)
