"Presumably that's how you can broadcast such pearls of wisdom as the DUP go around murdering people, or Heath received a bribe for taking us into the EEC, or any of the other ridiculous pronouncements you make about politics or history? You're just a gullible sap?" mrsonde seems to be getting mixed up between what Alan and Aqua have said. Huh? Have I? Apologies if so. I shall review. There's so many of you, and you all look so much the same, it's easy to mix you up. I didn't say like sheep, stop it.

Oh - I tried, for a few seconds, then gave up. My heart isn't as strong as it used to be, or else it's my liver. I've had a few glasses of champers this afternoon, which helps, but not enough. I'll take your word for it, and apologise. Surprising, but understandable, if you're right, where the mistake arose. Unusual for Aqua to voice an opinion of any sort with anything more than a whimper or squeak. Accusing people of murder or treason without any evidence seems a little outre for such a gent. On the other hand, Alan...well, the less said the better, perhaps. Shall we just all agree he's a nut, and leave it at that. No need to hound the poor dab.

Oh - I tried, for a few seconds, then gave up. But it's so simple, isn't it? Just read the words in front of your eyes. Or just carry on accusing people of things they haven't done or been, because that suits you for a few posts or threads.

Not a county councillor, I hope: that'd be a trough too far surely.

Ah, I see. "aquacultured" and "alancalverd", both looking and often sounding like standard issue gray alien lefty identikit public sector feeders. You should find some way to more readily differentiate yourselves. How about Brexit?

Bollocks, or an annual award? Happy to admit that the various Treaties Of Accession are distinguishable from the original Rome treaty inthat they bind newcomers to the original Rome conditions as subsequently amended. Doesn't make the EU any better, though. An excuse for virtue-signalling for overpaid bureaucrats - presumably the will have an annal gala to grant these awards; and note this-' defend the highest earthly goods - freedom, humanity and peace'- note the absene of democracy, an unnecessary troublesome thing that hinders the good works the the bureaucrats want to impose upon their subjects' Quite so. People often forget that the original signatories all had electoral systems with forms of PR built into their constitutions. France and Italy in particular were seriously on the verge of the communists gaining control as a result, and W.Germany had thousands of Russian tanks constantly poised to roll over their doorstep. As for now - it's something of a mystery, I think, why so many people have such little regard for democracy, sovereignty, and the well-proven guarantor of liberty, progress, and social stability that is our nation state. Woeful ignorance of history, of course. A wilful turning of a blind eye to the reality of what the EU actually is, and is quite clear about what it wishes to become. A belief that such apparently benign technocratic dictatorship is actually the best form of government - most of them are public sector workers, or benefit dependants in other ways. Some who have bought the constant propaganda that this country can no longer survive as a competitive trading nation and needs to cower beneath the protective efficiency of the Germans for their future handouts - thye see us as a backwoods Arkansas, in need of some sugar daddy New York.

What's nonsense about it?
Oh, ffs. Who cares? If Aqua was so needlessly upset about a simple misidentification of a post, all he needed to do was point it out. As usual, he was too bone idle to attempt the effort to communicate effectively.
Don't fret, the ceiling won't fall down. Gilbert and George still know which is which. Probably.

According to the Telegraph, Heath's prize amounted to £446, which he put towards a piano. Awarded ten years before we went into the EC. Hardly a bribe of any sort. So payment before the act is not a bribe? How was it a bribe? He wasn't even PM. And they didn't want us to join in the first place! You think it was a bribe to sabotage our efforts? Ask yourself how much the Russians were paying Jack Jones or Harold Wilson if you want to get worked up about real treasons. A communist having the gall to talk about ethics! Now I've heard it all. There's a big difference between £35,000 and £446, in 1963. I know which I believe - and it aint you.

Let's start with the latest arcane mystery. What can he possibly mean when he declares - with no explanatory or evidential packaging, of course, Aqua doesn't like to go beyond the 140 characters his minister was kind enough to permit him - that in the '75 referendum the "ordinary people" were "sidelined", just as "they are now". Huh? Who are these "ordinary people" - clearly, not the majority who voted, in either case. Can he mean people like him - that is, the ones who lost the vote on both occasions? What would "not being sidelined" entail, exactly? Have their own bit of the country that remained in the EU, or, originally, didn't join what was then, (oh so unlike now!) a "rich man's club"? Well - wtf is it supposed to mean? I'm happy to admit - even apologise for (sorry, that's an alien concept to you) - that I omitted a couple of words. And I've already said sorry today to my grandkids for being a little-endian, as the birthday-cake didn't quite work. I bet you wish you'd worn that radiation suit a bit more now, don't you Alan?

If Aqua was so needlessly upset about a simple misidentification [!!!] of a post, all he needed to do was point it out. He did. He said As you've probably realised by now I said neither of those specific things. He needn't trouble himself to identify who (if anyone) did say them.

We see that mrsonde makes a short apology for his risible mistake regarding his misqoute of Alan and Aqua, but immediately makes snide remarks to imply that it wasn't HIS fault, that it's because they look the same, and it is up to them to differentiate themselves (they already have different names), and we should "just all agree he's a nut". What rubbish.

He said As you've probably realised by now I said neither of those specific things. What was required was a simple: you've got the posters mixed up - an easy mistake, considering our similarities, and I'm intervening in an exchange you're having with Alan. Job done. It's happened to me often enough - it's happened to everyone, I should think - which is why I started using the avatar option years ago. Of course not, if he'd rather see the mistake continue. Otherwise, all he need say is: I didn't make the post you thought I did (though quite obviously that wasn't the mistake at all.) That's all I've ever done when it's happened, and it's all Fascinating correctly thought necessary - no need to make a bloody meal out of it! But of course you must. Never ever anything thoughtful to contribute to any debate - the Madame Defarge of the messageboards. But I appreciate his general explanation of being in his dotage for his never taking any "trouble" to communicate clearly. I suspect this was always the case, but it doesn't make it any the less true now.

We see that mrsonde makes a short apology for his risible mistake regarding his misqoute of Alan and Aqua It wasn't a quote, and it wasn't risible - I remember you doing the same several times, at some length. And you've most certainly never apologised for any of your many genuinely risible errors, have you? No. Au contraire, I did apologise "immediately". (How I wish I never introduced you to that word "snide" - I clearly expanded your vocabulary considerably - and evidently touched a nerve, as with Jean's creakingly robotic "language skills". I do wish you'd learn what it means, though.) That's right - they do, and that is why the mistake was made. It would help. Maybe one could wear a peacock-feathered tricorn, one sideboard epaulettes - who can tell those boasting medals apart? David and Jonathan are always having the same trouble. Not you, of course. If he liked to say "I'm a fascist" or "I'm a Nazi" you might, the Left having successfully rewritten history that these movements weren't their creations, but then communism was always many many times more brutal and murderous than fascism, (including its modern guises in China or South Africa or Brussels.) As for his latest nutty claims, if you believe Heath was bribed to take us into the EU, or the DUP murder people, I can't say going by your past record I'm all that surprised.
