About ONE DIRECTION...........

Is this thread now about Wales?

With respect, AnnC, you didn't say that you thought that might be a reason it was posted. And you have not reported Opening Post. I am glad you saw nothing wrong in thread.

he's not even Welsh - I'm Welsh and I didn't consider it to be racist in any whichway!!

I'm going minimalist for the time being Island, will be back soon :-)

CT I may well take you up on your kind offer.

I am still puzzled - have I been accused of being racist?

How deliciously risible.

CT, you haven't been RR'd or whooshed but where's your avatar gone? :-0 :-S

I didn't tell you off eRRol! I just suggested that CT is easier than CrystalTips when it comes to typing. You're welcome to borrow my halo (it's never been on my avatar, it's kept in a secret place) I won't be needing it if I've been RR'd. It's been well looked after in all my years on GR, just woosh it back to me when I feel like I can be a good girl and keep my mouth shut. Oh well, you may as well keep it ;-)

So Mersey.......about this scabby plaster that adorned the knee of a One Directioner.....

don't be so ridiculous - I'm Welsh, which you are most definitely not, and I certainly didn't find it offensive or racist in any way at all - it was funny and I for one hadn't seen it before

anyone slags the Welsh off and I'm there to defend us, and I'd feel exactly the same about racist comments regarding the English, Scots and Irish, so come down off your oh so high horse and live in the real world

AnnC That was my immediate thought when I saw the post about this bilingual mistake which was in the papers 6 or 7 years ago. Why else then?

oops - I see "Puddled of Ystrad Mynach" has been reported yet again - probably the racist remark did that

thak goodness you are not really Welsh or I would be apologising for your behaviour left right and centre

AnnCardiff did someone say I was being racist?

Never noticed.

CrystalTips (oops forgot you told me off for saying that so will start again)

ahem...

CT, I shall return said head adornment just as soon as I have picked something else to wear and adjusted it appropriately. Can you recomment a good halo shop?
Are they called haloiers?

correction here John - I do not think you have any friends on Genes- and as for throwing in the racist card - you really are quite unbelievable?

Island....oh yes its the big pack:)

CrystalTips. Many thanks for your concern about the state of my health. You will be pleased to learn that I was totally calm through those exchanges. My "friends" on Genes are all unknown to me and I cannot get too upset if somebody sat in Weston-super-Mare or Lanark or Croydon decides I am being totally unfair in asking an Opening Poster (of two threads that had gone dormant before I picked them up) why he put them up in the first place.

I think I know - 1. was a bit of fun about the strange use of "mild language" 2. was an attempt to bait in a racist way. But I may have got it totally wrong. It may have been very innocent to get hold of an old story like that. I would rather he admitted why he posted them than kept skipping away from responding.

Time to remove your tin hat eRRol and give it back to La Gooner, replace it with something more suitable, like a crown or a halo.

Your future looks bright ;-) :-D

Think big :-D :-D

P8 and P9?

Has my unpopular thread really run to so many pages?

blimey - just think what could happen if I started a POPULAR thread!

The world is my small and tasty shellfish!
