Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

the quran states that a true follower of the faith should not have blood form a non muslim because of contamination it is a sin .

read the quran then post facts I have . a non muslim is in the words of their prophet
a infidel and dirty and like a pig

ts a funny old world when you can bend the rules of your religion to go and have bllod of a infidel go into a betting shop to gamble go in to a pub to drink beer.
and many more evils in the quran .

i eat both pork and shellfish (yummy yummy!), but i am no less a jew for that
it would of course be singularly hypocritical were i to berate others for so doing

cynic I like jews and always have a kind people and do support Israel .
I would like to go to Israel next year

now funnily enough, and to the horror of many, i have no great desire to go, other than perhaps for some scuba, and am exceedingly angry with the way the elected(!) israeli gov't treats the palestinians

it's a shame or even shameful that i hear no uk rabbis speaking out similarly, even my own highly-regarded and liberal one

Manuel,

Check the life cycle of Taenia solium.

Check the transmission pathway of "disease".

Check Cysticercosis.

O Tanker your back, so what club and town were we talking about last week?

Ed: Blimey Fred you seem to have shut Alf up at last -):

56215 - exactly so, and there are other nasty and nastier parasitic worms too ...... hence pork being considered treff and whatever the equivalent arabic word is for that

interestingly, the jews were also a convenient scapegoat for the plague, for they were not so susceptible due to their strong rules and procedures regarding hygiene

Is Goldfinger definitely banned now ? i saw on the old FLYBE thread that he could read but not post any more ??

certainly for now, and arguably in perpetuity, though i very much hope not for, except when he gets very silly indeed, he is a much valued and valuable contributor especially on his CHARTS thread

DB has also been banished, but for myself, i'm not fussed one way or the other by his presence or otherwise

Shame if Goldfinger has gone for good i have spoken with him on here for about 12 years now and your right he puts out some good posts.

Manuel,

" though i very much hope not for, except when he gets very silly indeed, he is a much valued and valuable contributor especially on his CHARTS thread"


Do you know I sometimes think the same about you!


Do you think we should start a thread "SAVE GF" or "COME BACK GF"!

given that MAM is dependent (i can spell it correctly!) upon its contributors, it could surely do no harm to lobby ian etc, perhaps privately rather than openly

for sure GF was a total fool unto himself by allowing himself to get embroiled in personal feud, and he'll most assuredly need to mend his ways (count to 20 before posting polemic!?) if he is allowed back .... there will certainly be several who will still attempt to goad him into indiscretion

though he assuredly broke "the rules", as far as i know, this is the first occasion when he has been deemed to have taken a step too far, so i very much hope he will be forgiven

meanwhile, there are certainly suspicions that the odd newbie is actually a banishee in another guise ..... not that that perturbs me greatly

I was away on Fri/Sat so missed what happend, but thought he was only sin binned wasn't he?

ask ian ..... i'm sure he'ld take your phone call

Do you consider the above is beneficial in negotiating and the latter part referring to any one in particular.

Napoleon,

P. Off.

Free the MAM two!


Power to the people!!

you loved your post so much, you posted twice!
it is not for me to dictate how you might or might not tackle this issue

as it happens, ian already knows my view
