I really couldn't give a toss....it is a game to me.

If people really think they will get all the info they need from a site like this then they shouldn't be allowed out on their own.

....and I give plenty of useful advice on here.....not simply selective one sided 'statistics'.

That was a bit nasty...I actually believe that ABC would have a hard time deliberately selecting stats that are one-sided - he fires up his browser and away he goes. It's always been clear to me that he has always sought to offer a service which is up to the recipient to use and is very much the messenger.

Invariably most of the stats are humdrum - not belittling the intention in which they are provided.

Well fancy that.

...and, of course, no one has ever been nasty to me....or to anyone who does not see Australia as anything special.

Of course I should not be posting such heresy on the barbie should I ?

There you go again...what has Australia got to do with it? We're talking about ABC and his stats. (I find many of the stats pretty inconclusive).

It makes no odds whether ABCs stats are crap because they are, or appear to favour, Australia or the UK - that is the association *you*make.

Perhaps people are nasty to you because you were acting like an arse.

Infact people are nasty to anyone who is an arse, regardless of which country they think is on the specials board..

But none do it quite as well as you Sir, in fighting their little rear-guard actions.

The preferences thing...we can go around in circles all night with that one!
If an arse was to post on the MBTUK, they would also get attacked. It is no different to this forum. A credit on this forum is a debit on the other.

The thing I find almost breathtaking, head-shakeningly sad is the fact that people who are negative or unhappy/ have a less than impressed view with their lot in a country....cannot believe that others may be happy in the same place..when they have a different life. It's possible, inevitable even...

and furthermore, this forms the basis of their view/argument.

Never ceases to amaze me...

But Australia is shit tho'
