Thank you for starting this thread. I am aware that several of my friends and family are suffering psychologically and economically and I am so sorry to learn about all those who have expressed how difficult life is at the moment. Whilst I have had to significantly 'tighten the belt' it doesn't...

That's better! Like you, I am busy but unlike you I do not presume to know, advise or speculate on how you spend your time. Have a good day, whatever you do.....

Nope, your last comment is still no better.... in my opinion! Maybe start by answering how a face to face encounter would help your cause.....

Welcome back! Now, instead of scuttling off with a 'like', 'laugh' or 'love' emoji, please can you give an example of my use of 'facile irony'? To help you, here is a definition.... Irony: the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for...

I don't call all those who voted for Brexit idiots; however, what they did was idiotic and I think your summary of the benefits is suitably vague that it will satisfy the small minority who either benefit or who at least are not badly effected; and your emotive language: 'echo chamber'...

That's no better. I think you will have to start weaning yourself off this stuff again; and you are wrong, I'm not ridiculing you, nor am I 'indignant'. I'm just responding to and describing your posts. I am able to distinguish between 'people' and their 'alternative views'. I don't presume to...

Don't be sorry. Your ill-informed response is noted with derision... Facile irony adds nothing to a grown up debate. I am sure you can do better. Try again.....

Banter Noun: the playful and friendly exchange of teasing remarks. "there was much good-natured banter" Banter? Really?

Apart from your extreme right wing analysis of the cause (tories always hit down at the poor, labelling them en-masse as scroungers), I generally agree with you, so no need to wean yourself off the thread on my account. By the way, not just the country but humanity is 'doomed' unless we react to...

So soon?

Made me smile...

Quick update on Brexit 'progress'.....

It should be... but no, I think not!

Controversial?

Your spelling? Your vote? Both?

'bare' fruit is about right.... but not sure about just 'starting'; it's been bare from the outset. This is how things stand today..... according to The New Statesman

.... but, but

It's just you. You're like that..... but there is help for you if you reach out for it. Oh and thank you for your love emoji. You are free to get that help now....

I have some friends stuck at Dover... this will cheer them up!
