Gosh this is heavy stuff , gamble dear boy , could you please give us an inkling as to the wrath of the star wars
I believe the cleansing has begun ……does this mean New labours policital correctness now grips these small boards in the stratosphere of cyberland
Or perhaps maybe somemore clones will appear and the show will go on
Ricky
Matron thank you for your input,
as always,
might I probe your generosity
a little and ask if all is forgetten
in the Razeen area ?
I understand his demise was
Daylights difficult decision
but I daresay he consulted you
at the time.It is a long long time ago !
Ricky – how’s the parrot ?
is he an allweather bird ?Tor was a clone in the sense he had
other idetities on other boards
He just used an appropriate avatar,
and dressed as I would have expected
a Davies entree. His other ID’S
were not that significant to
people on here.As far as Are Zen? the jury is still
out. I would be interested in Matron’s views.I don’t believe many have a desire to
clone, it is a rarity. A real clone has
an important or relevanr identity
he/she is deliberately concealing.Heavy stuff
what I am writing is of little
significance, it is a drop in the ocean
and will be lost soon in time.[/color:134yz7b0]It is one person’s views
and somebody who is considered
off centre at that.I advise you all to clear your minds
and think of dinner.Wasn’t it Alice who asked
the cheshire cat
which road of the fork shall I take
and the cat asked, where do you want to go ?
and she said I dont know
and he said, then it doesn’t matter.Nothing really matters in the chill
Gamble , my parrot is fine , feeding on daily dosage of southwell and the hypnotic tones of Bob cooper and Luke hARVEY , no wonder the poor thing has applied to the local community college for spanish lessons (I myself prefer french
)I love the intrigue of the ramblings behind the scenes ,
and in honesty most of the day to day postings seem to dry rather quicklyI do love however that Daylights memory and culture is not forgotten , thats a big plus , it was a fun place then , nowadays its a bit more intense , but perhaps thats not too bad either
I will be hibernating from this outpost for a while as I am totally bored with racing now and maybe in the summer I will reconnect
I wish you and Mac the Vb
cheers
Ricky
Colin I so rarely get post
I often miss it.Ricky,
is that me and my mac or me and Mac – I assure you
only one is a waterproof union and the other is knitted well, but recently suffered two very big holes almost the size of gunshot
There is intrigue whenever more than one
person is gathered. I feed on it however I don’t have the time anymore. I am involved heavily in the markets and this takes a lot od stress and work, and my life is helter skelter slipping out of my hands in other directions. Mama mia, I write to escape, very much like your bird on its first evening at the local tech.Admin don’t win much on here.
Cormack’s revealing approach
in declaring his hand is refreshing.
Daylights small racing syndi was a private
section – they muttered and murmured in there
about god knows what, but I would bet it wasn’t only
weather and horses. I had eyes and ears in the most surprising places of course and fed on the constant drippings.I’m off out for krone
good luck to youGamble,
I hold no grudges.
But, if a member is blatantly rude and seems to enjoy disrupting threads for the sake of it they, really are going to get the ultimate sanction.
At the end of the day it, is up to Cormack to decide whether to reinstate a banned member or not.
Regards – Matron
Thank you Matron,
I think there is a matter
of scale that also has too be considered
and who the personality is.
I am sure that if you were
blatantly rude
we would all forgive you
Your ‘rudeness’ would
be offset by your service.
I have always found you helpful
and polite, but sating that you
would be the last person
I would want to annoy.I have read the last two pages through
again and feel that I have slightly
misrepresented my views on matters D
and the save this forum periodHad there been a vote between Mac
and Davies I would have abstained.
I did not go as far as Grashopper
in rejecting Davies, I had an open mind,
but would have welcomed him if LRM
had decided in his favour and
for two main reasons.
The advancment of his exchange,
and his promise that he would not
have written in this house.He would presumably have had
the power of life and death,
and in that sense he may have been too liberal,
for he has written in his paradise house
that he would never oust an individual
just ignore them. I myself believe in terms
of imprisonment not death, and feel Davies
was having one of his blind moments, and
would have had to enforse some sanction
and bring that trapped, dusty lawyer in himself out.
His liberal allowances might have
distracted and veered slightly away
from the important Daylight legacy.
A reservation on him.Thinking back, I suppose my pleasure
measure at Davies
takeover would have been 53/47
compared to a Cormack reign.
This was a minority view, and remember
the main reason had nothing to do with
personalities, but the green exchange
and the Davies gag.and naughtily, the dissent that would have followed
I like chattering, but also like action.
Daylight considered turning this place
into an exchange but was told by members on
here that a million was needed.
Davies robbed his piggy bank and has
to be commended on his mean streak.I have to say I do not know this hidden
stuff about Davies, that seems to so
extend the myth in him, and my opinions
above are formed without that knowledge
and may have been in the dark.I do not have anything further to
add on the takeover – but to add
that my views have now been honestly
laid out. I do not have anything further
to say on Ian Davies.Matron let’s have a tea break
For those fascinated by intrigue
and as I pop the kettle on
I spy the newest registered member
is called mortDeath
Gamble,
It has always been a "balancing act" on "TRF".
I think a lot of the original members would have liked a "closed shop".
If you remember, quite often “threads” were started that certain members didn’t like
or thought were posted in the wrong section: the rows that use to erupt for no real reason!Remember when Kathy, Pewter & JTS were about!
Escorial, was quite forceful with his opinions as well.
It is a shame some of them have never returned.
Regards – Matron
Gamble, I fear your use of the term "reject Davies" is a little misleading. The Chief dropped off the face of the planet when the Green Giant was finally taken down by the slingshot from the DCMS. Like you and others, I liked Diane, despite him often being an infuriating character. At the time, I felt that Mac would be the safer bet as Captain of the Ship; mainly because he seemed an honest operator (not that ID was dishonest), and that he would cut a much less divisive figure when donning the robes of State.
As resurectee myself, I’m all for a statute of limitations on red cards, and both ID and Razeen would be welcomed back into this house by me, should it come to pass.
PS. Your recent musings betray a man who is very much on top form. Author, author.
It is of course the imbalance that can
cause interest you must agree, Matron,
but of course pettiness is a curse
we all have to contend with at time to time.Pewter of course did return momentarily
only to be hounded off by Sky,
who also had strong opinions and
the Sky Razeen show kicked off
several times in here and they famously
voted to go or stay, and the resultant draw
was a fatal inevitability.I would not describe Kathy as strongly
opinionated but my word if she felt wronged,
she was like a great white with meshed mouth.
She would pick away. I found her pleasantness
radiated through this place.Jilly was far more forceful and similarly
missed and I fear for her pipe and slippers
man if he leaves the mortgage unpaid or
comes in from the moor with a large empty spirit
bottle.Jim is a very sad loss
and if Davies ever had got his toe in here
he’d have broken the 100 metre record
in his efforts to escape.
Jim’s several red-handed warnings
shows his soul is still stuck here
somewhere in the woodwork.Of course Razeen, seen about recently,
had talents rarely seen in houses,
and liked by Daylight, I remember
his apologies, and risk strategies in
bringing intrigue in.Daylight, I remember once
popped in here,
to announce your first favourite
thread as the most numerically successful of all,
although the word association had it in its sights,
and strangely if you are interested in records,
Razeen did you a favour by his death,
because the WA wore a shroud thereafter and
sulked away.I am out for krone.
I will leave it tonight
ths space clearing is exhausting.I do have some old threads printed
in colour with the old avatars
that breathed so much life.I am happy to trade them
for jellied eels
and will throw in a oner
for good measureGamble,
Razeen, was a rude and disruptive person who seem to take great pleasure in ruining threads just because he didn’t like them.
Do we really want that sort smug "poster" on TRF again?
Regards – Matron
You would know more than me as regards the disruption, Matron, but was Razeen really "rude"?
I’d say more he was more irascible than rude, myself – which is perfectly acceptable as a lifestyle choice, imo. I had several jousts with Razeen in the brief time that our world’s collided, and would have him back with no hesitation, because he had zest and feist in equal measure.
I don’t know what Razeen was ultimately bulleted for – he may have committed a large transgression I’m unaware of, and I might therefore be talking out of turn – but he never seemed to do much more than gently yank a few chains. For me, I’d rather we had a few "charcaters" around the place, than turn TRF into Stepford.
