What you are missing is the other thread started by Andrew about sporting prowess, in which high altitude and my use of oxygen was mentioned in a light hearted way. This thread was a pick-up by Metanoia on that piece of light entertainment in some rather pathetic attempt to ridicule me. Of course as soon as I responded, she fell into the “poor me, I’m a victim and nick is so nasty” role that you always fall for. I didn't see anything ridiculing you in the opening post ... are you certain you have this 'poor me' role attributed to the right person ? Anyway... we're all here talking balm ... upto two pages ... content created and idle hands kept busy 😁 Rog Well maybe ridicule is too strong a term. But ask yourself why she created this topic? And for clarity, I do not feel “poor me” here, what is interesting is that as soon as she is called out, she jumps straight to the “poor me” persona, and you buy it!

Not for the first time, I feel like I've walked into the wrong room. Am I missing something ?
Rog ...probably Mr Stabby - bet he's secretly devastated you diverted "up the Ashby" ....

I am heartened when I remember that despite all the evidence, millions of people in USA still support Donald Trump. They only hear what they want to hear and disregard the rest (with apols to S&G). Exactly the same for some Thunderboat members.

Have to say I was genuinely relieved to find there were no photos of kilted gentlemen old enough to know better. Rog My niece is getting wed in Glasgae to Scott the Scot in a year or so, I'm pressing for National Dress, trad style with the wind blowing through obviously. I'll happily post a pic if it happens. Great song it was too I especially like the Elvis impression. Class act that one.

In Scotland at least, a balmpot is colloquial lingo for a mad person. Balm as in balmy, and not the temperate or soothing thing.

A balm is a dangerous kind of animal.

We need to know what Geoff thinks about it all. Who is Geoff? Oh yes, I remember now, it’s a name you invented in the hope of irritating me. Breaking news, it doesn’t irritate me, it just makes you look a tosser.

Nick doesn’t even know who Geoff is, which is not too surprising since you invented him. Which is kind of weird. Inventing your own imaginary friend is one thing, but inventing someone else’s imaginary friend is definitely on the weird spectrum.

Geoff is that very quiet and frightened-looking chap who sat at the same table as us when we went for a pint or two at the White Swan at Fradley Junction.
