You failed so far to do the right thing and apologise for your remarks , however Miltiades true to his sweet nature AND HIGHLY DEVELOPED SENSE OF HONOUR !!! hereby offers his humble apologies for calling you an OLD tart !!
Friends now ??
I did not leave out the "old" through sensitivity ... but through its relative truth
Let's have an exercise in loosening your rigidity....
Words are the tools we use, since body language is unavailable to us on the forum ... if they were used as part of our conveyance of a message ... I have no problem with that.
No apology is necessary.
If we were
face to face and your body language conveyed to me something of the disgust you felt ... how could you then take that signal back ... You could not!
That is fine. I respect your right to convey
whatever sentiments you wish ... just be big enough to accept any back.
We are here, exchanging words in relative free-flow ... if all we did was apologise or agree in order to avoid realism ... I would not be here.
Besides I did not directly call you a "senile old fool" ..... it was a general comment to the supporters of "you-know-what" (daren't use the acronym as it seems to be like an alarm bell that gets halil posting
).
But do let's not go
on about it ...
Regarding the locking .... it had been moved to Cyprus Problem ... and so much worse has gone on before ..... that it is a mystery, like "Bitter Lemons" ... Perhaps the same sensitive Moderator ...
