Dear Ivor and PSFan, sorry to be so late replying to your flames, I can't get the computer every day.

Religion.
The last refuge of a scoundrel is patriotism, not religion. If you are quoting, that is. Wrong again.

Colonials.
Only people living in the great Rift valley aren't colonials. Is that where you're from? I'm English, living in NZ. Lots of 'catters are Poms. Can't you tell by the spelling? Perhaps not.

MacColl.
Not sure how to spell his name, but I'm sure it isn't McCall, as you've spelled it twice. Wrong again.
You may be right about his ego, I never heard or met him, but his contribution to our genre is enormous. Peggy Seegar liked him.

Boring.
In the eyes of the beholder, so is boorishness.

Membership.
If you join the 'Cat, you can flame me privately. Or is it less fun that way?

Over to you.
