You are who you are, what right do I have to try tell you to be anything other than true to yourself.

We are all different in our views on things and you have a right to your view whether I or anyone else likes it.

If your loved ones love you then thats all that matters, what I think about a comment that you make doesn't matter, but then I know you already know this and from what I have seen of you around the forum my comment wouldn't have phased you in the slightest but I still wanted to apologise.

I hope you will accept apology. It still doesn't mean I like what you said though

Sorry again.
Thanks very much - but I really didn't take offence because I recognise that compared to most folk I AM as you describe.

It's not a thing that I take particular pride in and there's no doubt that I'm VERY much in the minority especially here and more than once have questioned if I should just quietly disappear. All I do is express a minority viewpoint.

But thanks so very much for this message, it was nice to read first thing in the morning!

Well it’s a good job you wont both be able to kiss and hug over it.
It’s not advisable at this moment in time!

I hope The Artful Todger likes all this publicity and the attention drawn to him.
I hope he does too, after all its positive attention! If I choose to make a public apology that's my perogative! I don't have to explain myself. I thought I w as doing the decent thing but then someone comes along and questions my motive? Does it even matter?

Fair play to you, young lady. But what he posted was inaccurate.

Don't even think of leaving, it makes for an interesting forum when we have differing opinions.

Maybe so bes but I still had no right to get snotty with him, when I read back my response it looked like I was attacking him.

So why didn’t you ask for your offending post to be removed? It’s still up there for the world to see.

I was talking To At, I wasn't discussing him behind his back? Bloody hell If I broke the rules I'm sorry for that too. Think I need to go about my day before I get myself in more bother

Stop questioning me please. I wasn't aware I had offended anyone? What the hell? You know what art, there is too much shite going on in the world right now as it is without me wasting my time trying to explain myself to you about something that I thought I was being a decent person admitting my wrong doing or what I saw as wrong. Good day to you
