Yeh but it was an interesting story, and you did put it so eloquently !

OMG !!!

That was a thread on AF1 that I got bored with very quickly and didn't bother to look at after the first few posts - looks as though it kicked off big time. Strikes me as people not hearing what other people are actually saying - particularly that Born-to-fall-off chap .... but I dare say he's feeling a bit sensitive about the whole thing - so it's not surprising.

Ah well - at least you haven't had the moderators threatening to lock threads like I did the other month!

lol true

but early days yet - andi think he also objected when i corrected his spelling of limey...

Forgive my ignorance but am I missing something here? What does he mean by :-

"No offence, but the Englanders should be more worried about being over run by the Moors than my insurance levels"

Whats a "moor" or am I being particularly thick (as usual)

It's clearly an anti-Muslem statement.

The Islam empire that spread into Spain was referred to as the Moors and a lot of the architecture in southern Spain (such as the Alhambra) is refeered to as Moorish Architecture.

Nice one, Aladinsaneuk. That little tosspot deserved a 'robust rebuttal' and I can state without fear of contradiction that he got one...

Can I refer you to Muphreys law Aladin.

for the record, I think you will find it is spelt "limey"

now, wether or not the law permits it - and HERE they do not, is beside the issue - what is the issue is that the rider has and will loose out

Muphrey's Law: a) if you write anything criticizing editing or proofreading, there will be a fault of some kind in what you have written; (b) if an author thanks you in a book for your editing or proofreading, there will be mistakes in the book; (c) the stronger the sentiment expressed in (a) and (b), the greater the fault. (d) any book devoted to editing or style will be internally inconsistent.

oh, I just corrected his spelling - mine was perfect...


bugger!

anyhow, have closed that thread down as it was pointless - and what a dipshit - I think even the other americans must have been embarressed by the twat

and why did he have to be such a knob? as I said, I was trying to qualify why some werer angered by his apparent lack of insurance....

Cheers Andy, I actually thought that might be the case but then thought it was probably too subtle!!! lol

I'm off down there on Sunday 28th for a couple of weeks, might even post up some "Moorish" photos when I get back!
Best winter bike roads on the planet, and I'll be in a bloody Fiesta hire car.
Still the inland roads out to Granada, the surrounding Sierra Nevadas and Ronda a bit further south are brilliant in anything, and almost empty at this time of year.
