Marblehead Posted December 20, 2012 Interactions between vmarco and Recep Ivedik would have been interesting to observe... Yes, as long as they kept the discussion civil. Only Vmarco can play the part he does. I never would be able to even though I am a self-declared Atheist and he is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead Posted December 20, 2012 Tea is sublime. Drink tea, know tea. Be tea. And biscuits of course. Little goes better with a lovely cup of tea than a nice biscuit, or at this festive tide, the three Aldi Deep Fill Mince pies (Holly Lane Brand, quite delicious) that I have just consumed along with a cheering cup of Red Bush by way of a light supper. Life is indeed good sometimes. Actually a little Southern Comfort in that tea does wonders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marblehead Posted December 20, 2012 HI marblehead. TBH I dont know what you mean when you say "Come on Cat". I dont understand.. I am english, you know.. maybe that has a connotation for you that makes sense in this context, but it doesnt make sense to me at all. Explain? I'm sorry MH, I dont - at all - know your stance or relationship with VM. I dont read each and every post on the board. I havent read all this thread, very far from it. Yes I agree about 'rubbing up the wrong way' self questioning, and yes, I also agree that VMarco has a haughty tone. Does your post essentially mean that you are one of the people who asked VM to return? "Come on Cat." may have been better expressed with, "Really Cat, etc." I have spoken positively of Vmarco on numerous occasions. Just because he has irritated a couple (few?) more people doesn't change my opinion. My relationship with Vmarco? None other than my opinion that he has something of value to share with us. And again, no, I don't always agree with him. My relationship with Vmarco is similar as was my relationship with Vaj. He and I disagreed most of the time. But now and then our opinions allowed us an agreement. I still think he is a very nice person and think it is sad that he felt it best to leave us. Anyhow, I am not defending Vmarco because there is or might be something in it for me. But there might be something in it for others. I generally defend Ya Mu as well. Nothing in that for me either except continued friendship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
