>Obviously from the stereotypical, swaggering, bandy-legged manks that were all over the British music industry 10 years ago and now, mercifully, keep a low profile or have grown up.

Well, they may have been Manchester bands but I bet they were populated by Scousers.

>One could say that.

I am definately saying that.

>Not for those who avidly follow my threads and take note of such things. Yeah, and I often miss the "a" key and hit the apostrophe by mistake.

Time for an eye test.

>Doesn't matter. The question's done with by then;.

It does matter, old boy.

>Not with anyone else here. Only you go out of your way to wind me up.

Don't flatter yourself. You wind yourself up.

>Not nearly every thread but many (like you said, you're keeping tabs on me). I do it for the socialisation, not being in an office of lively personalities

What, you're not in an office or, you are in an office but there are no lively personalities?

>but all you do is gainsay everything I say.

There you go again. Why don't you just speak in simple, straightforward English instead of your usual wordplay?

>Yes but the thread was not on the subject of English. So why did you have to open your referencing gob?

Now that isn't very good English. This merely proves that despite that fact you have moved, you can't take the Scouse out of the boy.

>Not nasty with anyone. I tend to avoid the slanging matches that go on this thread but you come begging for it.

I have just got a mental picture. Tee, hee!

>I don't go for braggadocio

No, you probably head for the hills at the first sign of trouble ;)
