Default Goodbye from me; thanks: pals; sorry: enemies.

I seem to have upset too many people with an over-exuberant post.

We can't all be perfect and I'm certainly not. Bit of booze and I might be prone to an OTT or stupid joke or two, not everybody gets it though to her credit kaz (the butt of the jokey posts) did and offered no malice, only repartee unlike certain others. Maybe it wasn't even very funny but at least kaz didn't over-react.

Well, time to be leaving, anyway.

Thanks a lot to my pals and I'll miss you!

A lot of credit is due to ptlabs for his intelligence and moderate moderating.

To my enemies: sorry I pissed you off, dudes. Maybe in another life I'll be more perfect.

Good luck to all who aspire to live and work in Australia and New Zealand.

In the meantime:

Damn! Just when the fair Karen and I had decided to find some way to share your favors out between our two ample selves.

However will we live without you??

Goodbye mate - seems like you have done a good job into changing your personality to Mr Unpleasance!!

I am sure that you did not mean those words - I expect that you wrote them when you had been on the booze. I dont see it is a reason for you to leave as you have always been a useful poster on the forum and have given me personally lots of good advice.

Good luck anyway. Take care. Why not just say sorry and carry on?

Good on you - at least you had the decency to make an apology.Cant remember anybody else making one lately after posting OTT or in some cases posting absolute s*** and doing so consistently

Dont make a big thing of it -you went a bit far in a tread -you have said sorry- your past posts dont point to a troll/flamer mentality-keep posting!

And you were right Kaz was very decent in her responses to your "words"

Gawd what did you do??

Its getting a bit naughty on here, some people are allowed to insult, threaten, abuse, hijack to their hearts content. But others are kept in check for pretty tame behaviour. I would not have thought Don was someone the site would benefit without.

Only time you offended me was when you thought Dotty was my name and I was a 90 year old lady

Oh well, all the best to you and the chimps, good luck

OK I am 90


Dotty was a phrase a northern pommie mate who lived out here used, from her gran, stuff would drive her dotty, so if one of us girls were peed off we would be a "Dotty". Thought of changing it but I think that would be a bit like changing PommieBastard so I guess I am stuck with it
