Well Ralph,

At least your words are there for everyone to see.

I'm very glad I didn't say them.

As always you've done nothing but attack me. I've no idea why you suddenly changed from being 'Jolly Ralph' to this one, but I prefer you as you used to be way back.

Use your words to wound if that's what you think words are for. Personally I should think that Nic Jones would be ashamed of those words of yours above.

I know other people who are also very close to Nic, and they never would dream of using words like that to me....or indeed to anyone else.

I'd suggest you start putting more love into your soul than hatred.
And that goes for your pals too.

Why, when you kept putting similar messages to that on the BBC, you have been allowed to remain on there, whilst I've been banned, despite the fact that not once did I respond to you 'in kind' or should that be 'in unkind' I've no idea......

But, that is the way of the BBC these days.

I wish you well


Lizzie

Perhaps it's because Ralphie says it once, Lizzie says it ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

"Well Ralph, At least your words are there for everyone to see."

And I suspect that's what you intended, wasn't it Lizzie? You're very adept at picking on points which mean something to your target, and then pushing the button, standing back and waiting to see what happens.

"I'm very glad I didn't say them."
But you engineered them and deserved them!

"As always you've done nothing but attack me"
Most untrue. It takes a lot of provoking to result in an outburst like that... and you do do a lot of that, don't you!

"I'd suggest you start putting more love into your soul than hatred.
And that goes for your pals too."

Heed your own words - oh and by the way, you keep referring to "Ralphie and his pals", as though they come as a ready made item and that Ralph is the "leader of the pack". Totally ridiculous! Before you started having a go at quite a few of us individually I don't think we knew each other or knew OF each other - and indeed some of us still don't.

Now back to the potiates....

Potiates? We have them where I come from, delicious grated with a little Flavian pobble bean and baked in a slow oven for 4 days.

3 potiates in their jackets (unless the jacket is tweed, in which case, peel carefully, VERY carefully).
1 gudge of Flavian pobble beans, shelled.
1 thermo-nuclear device.

Prepare the pobble beans in the usual way, but instead of flaying them, grate them over a bowl of soapy water.

Wash and grate the potiates, simmer in their own juices and when slightly brown, add the pobble beans.

Place in a flameproof bunker and bury bunker under several thousand gudges of soil and rubble. Add the thermo-nuclear device.

After 4 days, dig out your bunker and your potiates will be ready.

Enjoy.

Sorry HMF - sounds a rather difficult recipe to follow. For starters, they don't have any thermo-nuclear devices in my local Sainsbury's - would really HOT chilli powder do instead??

I suppose the chilli powder might work.

Or try Morrisons, they'll sell almost anything.

Ralph, Diane and Ruth all know each other. Ralph admitted to 'ganging up' going on, on the BBC thread...the David Gilmore one for your information DA.

Also, I did not engineer anything, merely put the question to Ralph.
I like to talk about artists that I like to talk about, and I have a right to...as does anyone else.

I have never interrupted any of Ralph's threads about Nic, or anyone else....

However, as I said to Dave earlier...you are at liberty to take my words, twist them and use them for your own spinning tactics.

I actually wanted Ralph to answer my question, that's all. And the question I asked was:

"Ralph, purely as a matter of interest, what would you think of people who took over a Nic Jones thread in the way that some, including yourself, have on here?"

He chose not to answer that question at all, but to personally attack me, yet again. It was ENTIRELY his choice to do that.

I'd suggest, once more, that he works out what his, imo, obsessive problem with me is and sorts it out as this behaviour will end up making him poorly.

I will not stop writing about the people I want to write about, despite Ralph Jordan throwing a complete wobbly every time I dare to mention the name of Show of Hands or Seth Lakeman.

Get over it guys.

And then...realise that no amount of your bullying will get to me. You only serve to show yourselves up in the eyes of those who read messageboards, but never write on them.

SouthWestern Troll Pudding.

Ingredients : first things that come into your head.

Preparation: pour everything into a large bowl and stir and stir and stir. (If being filmed, ensure that hands are prominently shown).
Cooking: place bowl in oven for as long as you like. Pudding can be reheated.
Servings: a little goes a long way and can be doled out to serve hundreds if not thousands.
Warning - this meal can make many people feel nauseous so toilet facilities must be provided.

Sorry, haven't mentioned SOH, Seth etc.

Is that actually part of the recipe then George?? I suppose you would need something like breadcrumbs to pad it out a bit, but does biscuit crumb work in the same way??

er, I didn't mean that your wife is wide, George...

Reminds me - this IS a music forum...


Mt wife is wide, I cannot get oer
Neither have I wings to fly
But first it bent and then it broke
So did my love prove false to me

I reached my finger into some soft bush
Thinking the fairest flower to find
But not so deep as the love I'm in
I know not if I sink or swim

I pricked my finger to the bone
And left the fairest flower behind
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like the morning dew

or something like that...

Canadienne - I think you're mistaken... that's not like the potiate that I was shown earlier on today... looks to me as if someone has sold you a pup!!!

Ruth - I trust that you are going to be careful when getting to know Steve.. I reckon he's likely to be a bit scared in his new home to start with, and you know how when they're apprehensive they can be a little irrational... make sure you're using padded gloves when feeding him to start with. I'd hate to think of you coming to any harm!

Oh, THAT Joshie. He and Ben are out in the barn with Deeyyyyvid, up to their vulnerable little elbows in the engine of the Massey. It's father-son bonding.

Deeeyyyyvid hasn't seen the potiate yet (you should hear how "potiate" sounds in my accent - it's hilarious). Actually, I'm getting a bit fed up of being constantly raked over the coals for not getting shagged in an Oxford Travelodge. I might just see if the potiate fancies a go at Deeeyyyyvid's Hassett Hills free range chipolata...
