You wanna know something? ......Well, even if you dont, I just have to tell you. You are a dear person, with a lovely writing style, and a lot of people like you on this site. But then you go and spoil it all when you keep right on jibing and jabbing at a person with whom you have had previous altercations. This can be very interesting, if it wasn`t so pathetically infantile.
Now........ If the person being jabbed happens to make a "come-back" posting to the above quoted dribble, then just remember WHO started it, okay? Right.
jan45: Eating Bulgarian tomatoes without drinking the Bulgarian high grade drink rakija is the half of the pleasure.I m sure you have similar drink in Romania.
Cheers
(no rakia for me tho)The credit crunch is going from bad to worse.....

Now you are attacking me - I didn't attack him in any way, but he had to make a snide remark against me.... I mentioned 'Slim Tony's' (nothing nasty) and he came back with 'No, Thick Robert's'...... try and be fair smoky - or please say nothing instead of jumping on my back all the time. You stir things up yourself all the time by taking sides and ganging up on me.
How would you like to be called 'thick' and then 'pathetically infantile'?
Wash your mouth out with soap. Why don't YOU abide by the rules instead of making things worse?

Yes - it was, as always, wrong of ME to reply..... but of course it was also wrong of you - you should have sent me a quiet friendly email, but you didn't!
I don't think either person you mention have had too much trouble tolerating each other - I can also appreciate his wit (most of the time) and the ladies obviously like him.
My main reason for staying here is loneliness - trapped in the villa 21 hours out of 24 means that the internet is a wonderful way of staying in contact with breathing non-paralysed human beings.
I am looking forward to my next trip away - to Germany now for just one week instead of Swansea for two weeks!
Mirodenia: You too are very very funny.

Fatcat Barclays bankers jet off to Italy for lavish £500,000 banquet as country faces up to financial crisis
Last updated at 2:33 PM on 09th October 2008
While the rest of the country struggles to come to terms with the financial crisis, a group of Barclays bankers have jetted off for a lavish banquet costing more than £500,000.
As British taxpayers faced up to a grim financial future, coupled with the fear of tax hikes following the government's bailout £500billion bailout package, a group of fatcat bosses from Barclays Wealth flew out to the luxurious Villa Erba, beside Lake Como in Italy yesterday for the all-expenses paid jaunt.
Invites alone for the bash are believed to have cost up to £3,000.
Over 300 guests will be wined, dined and entertained with an evening of opera before spending the night in the luxury surroundings of the exclusive Villa D'Este hotel
'Given the current climate it's really got up everyone's noses that this one is going ahead.
'Hard-working Brits face losing their homes, but it seems these bankers don't care as long as they can sip chianti in Italy.
'The cost will be huge - talk about feasting while Rome burns.'
Despite staff admitting the annual conference "sent out the wrong message", a spokeswoman for Barclays Wealth defended the expensive trip.
'You can't stop doing business just because of the credit crunch', she said.
'This is not jolly people going to dinner, it's an educational seminar - and it's more important than ever to keep this kind of thing going in the credit crunch.'
This latest jaunt comes just a week after more than 100 staff from Barclays Private Equity enjoyed a sunshine break at a £1,800 a night hotel in the French Riviera.
A guest at the hotel said: 'They were lapping up five-star luxury and talking of their party night in Monte Carlo as if the banking industry was in rude health.
'It was a totally shameless display of extreme wealth at a time when millions back at home are struggling with debts.
'While youngsters can’t get mortgages and financial institutions are on the brink of bankruptcy, these overpaid bankers seemed not to have a care in the world.'
