I diddun say anywhere's that they was "ignoring" himself.
I ain't "ignoring" him either.
I'm "watchin' " him...
Kinda like that can't take your eyes off a train wreck, thing.
I never sayed "ignore".

Fact.
Yet I see no evidence of that knowledge in AFN or the sandpit either.
The whole time you were on sabbatical, they still thought you were
there.
So when in doubt, our group is often quiet.
I hope they are waiting for a sign from someone who does know.
It doan mean they are ignoring the situation.
How can one ignore such a loon as himself?

Correct. But I'm running with the belief that when GB is blatantly
being an idiot, then the majority are not keen to align themselves
with outright stupidity.
Yeah, they get caught out when he is nice to them... but he can't
sustain "nice" for long periods at a time.
Eventually he shoots himself in the foot.

Ain't that what I sayed?? :-D
Our group has other "problems" than GB. Posting knowledge being the
main one. Not many are keen to learn the conservative, tried and true
way.

I thought the Welsh very austere. No??
I have Welsh friends in Brissy, emigrated in the 90's.
I've known them since school though.
There is always that sense of "you Colonials, you is so funny"...

I felt a bit let down. I'm a Guipure girl from way back.
"Drab" just floats in my brain.
I'm not a "toilet doll dress" fan by any stretch. Diana's dress was a
disaster in frou frou - at the other end of the scale.
I liked the cut and the initial direction the dress looked like it was
going... and then they just mucked Her up from the waist up.
She has a beautiful neck and decollete. An up do (hair) with wispies
would have been a good start to set off that neckline. Instead they
hid it.

Yeah, mine was really pretty at my First Communion. Little rosebuds on
it and beautiful hand embroidery around the edge.
(You doan wear the white at Confirmation... mehehe, your memory is
failing you!).
Communion at around 10, white dress, boys wear a tie.
Confirmation at around 12, any old clothes is fine.
We had the Bishop do our Confirmations... I waited fer an Epiphany
wiff the laying on of hands... none came.../grin
Was a bit disappointed... thought there would be harps or sumptink...

It's the same with Charles and Andrew. Andrew got to go do what He

Charles could only pull Him out of scrapes and hope to be told the

She actually liked Rolf's portrayal of Herself, even though the Palace
was aghast.
Rolf was really chuffed over Her comments to Him about it.
It's going on a stamp apparently. Rolf was on telly this week saying
how they asked His permission. (Brit stamp, not ours - we have to spit
on Germaine... /blachk!)
