i am sorry if i offended anyone in my time here but i call it as i see it and am a very uncompromising person and often controversial.

i still have a lot of friends on this board so i guess this is goodbye.

good luck to all those waiting for visas and those selling houses etc etc.

see you on the other side.


Your posts were amusing....however your play on your name ie:welsh boy billy, WBB and now Double u bb is inspirational.

you will be back.....

That's what I say!
I think that’s an excellent idea.

Its been mentioned before too…could go with the 3 strikes and you’re out for good rule.

Shame to see WBB go really, people like him do help to spice up what could be an essentially boring discussion group.

If we all banned someone that we have found in the past to be offensive, there would be no-one left here, sometimes there are flame wars, sometimes they get personal, lets all learn to deal with it and get on with our lives.

Banning people is not the right answer, that’s what the ‘take it outside’ forum is for.

Hiya
Sorry to hear your sad news.

Maybe if you do a lot of creeping and we give you a lot of support they will let you back.
If not, good luck with everything, you will be missed.
Hugs

Sorry to see you go Billy boy.

Keep your pecker up and good luck with your ventures south.

Best wishes

Woah! Amusing is one thing. Nasty is another. http://britishexpats.com/forum/showt...&pagenumber=12

No place for the OTT nasty comments here, oh no, this site is very 'accommodating' sometimes and if you make an off comment all you have to do is delete it or apologize (as long as you don't do it too often! Mr Don!)

Strange that he was banned for abusing someone who had been abusive to him first on the thread in question. Especially as the pair of them have been at it for many a month.

I was entertained by the old boy, there's enough dull threads and posts to get through, a few lively ones are always welcome in my book. Good luck WBB, may well see you in Brissie soon enough.

At least Mickj is banned.

My thoughts exactly. I thought Ceri gave as good as she got. The words "good", "for", "goose" and "gander" spring to mind

Ceri wasn't obnoxious/ threatening/ abusive in her posts, just caustic.

I think she veiled her threats a bit more than WBB but there was a definite threatening tone to some of her posts. WBB was just really bloody obvious about it. I think he got bored lately and was just waiting to be banned anyway. His more recent posts seemed to be getting more and more personal. Just my impression.

On this forum WBB was un-pc, forthright in opinion, took no shit and swore like a docker with Tourette's. Surely he'll fit in perfectly with the Aussies?

What thrilled me most was all that blood-red celtic *passion* flying about between the two of them. Just like an early Tracy-Hepburn movie *sigh*

Celtic passion... you don't think....?? Surely they couldn't be...?

It's always possible that the 2 of them have been having a laff at our expense, folks....

Just a thought...
