......again?

The old "it's only banter" game or a variant thereof. Verbally abusing someone with an offensive comment  and then abusing them again by accusing them of not having a sense of humour.

It's an old, old game and the intent is obvious.

Sometimes you need to take it on the chin  and move on..... Please...
Apologise (and mean it). Move on.
Listen, Learn and maybe Tone It Down???

Sorry, but someone needs to say it. 

Your posts recently have bcome incredibly polarising. 
You are better than that surely?

Well it indicates that the comment is not meant to be taken seriously last time I looked, unlike others who like nothing more than even ruder comments without the benefit of such an icon, but then I'm thick skinned enough not to let it bother me.

And honestly who takes the 'leave your name and address in the wastebasket by the door insult seriously?' Only a complete t**t.

What ever happens it’s never your fault is it GRF . You really are a complete t**t   Dead

The 'waste basket thing' reminds of when my company decided to try a 'suggestion box', it was about the size of a large kitchen type waste basket, by lunch time it was overflowing onto the floor, almost every suggestion was various things they could do with managing director  LOL

Let him flounce,, anyone who can't spot a winky icon and takes himself that seriously has no place on an internet chat forum anyway, never met such a humourless con. (well virtually met, can't say I've even bothered to find out who he was)

CT249 listen to 423zero. Just ignore grf , he’s just a little poison dwarf/troll. I for one always value your input . It’s great to hear a view from the other side of the world .

Voluntary pay drop

Losing £15k a week and struggling by on just £85k per week must be tough

the £30k p/w tax will be coming in useful though :)
