Why? It is a nice Northern thing. My mum calls everyone pet. Does that make her a chauvinist?

No.

But it is a bit patronising when used as you used it.

And you know it, so stop being daft.

Admit you were wrong then (ie it was a good example).


No. I didn't think it a good example at all. If you know your Tudor stuff then you must admit that Henry V111 was hardly the best example of how to accrue riches and save.


Ermmm, you miss the point once again.

Would you not class our Queen to be rich (even though she is poor in real terms to Victoria)?

If you were an average person in the C16th, you would have classed the king as being "quite well off" - but his wealth is dwarfed by most working peoples income now. Due to inflation (ie my original point before you went off all confused.)

Hmmm Clegg has agreed to a cap on immigration considering how opposed he was to this in the debates that's a bit odd.

I presume its because he knows its pretty pointless and meaningless anyway. Most immigration currently comes from within the EU and the Conservatives can't cap that even if they want to.

Depends at what level it's set though, Cameron didn't give a figure did he?

I stated I was a financial advisor (investments and pensions - ie people give me money and I try and make them more) and you tried to make out I was a loan shark (kinda the opposite). I think that was what I objected to was it not?
it hit a nerve


If I posted that you were a pedophile I am sure you would not like it (though it is not true and you are not a pedophile).

It did not hit a nerve, it was just a untruth and as such, I felt it wrong to stay on the forum. You fool you.

But if we do not use the anecdotal evidence that we pick up during our lives then what else do we use?

Of course you can use anecdotal evidence to support a point but unfortunately 3 blokes from your school isn't strong enough evidence to abandon the concept of equality of opportunities!
your`e wasting your time,he knows it all and hes never wrong, typical right wing prat

Where as you are open to different opinions and likely to change yours' due to a conversation on a forum.

You remember the Tudors? You don't look your age Sharon.

I like them. They are interesting.
Yes very interesting but never had you down as a plane spotter. Unfortunately Avro failed to anticipate the jet age when it tried to introduce the Tudor turbo-prop. Sadly the crash of the MkII prototype that killed Roy Chadwick and others was a blow from which they struggled to recover. It's difficult to understand that decision from the same aircraft manufacturer that conceived and built the futuristic and advanced piece of engineering that was the Vulcan.

Seriously here, I can't even recall the big point you were originally trying to make.

If it had been anything remotely interesting then I would remember it. I am quite good at stuff like that.

Pet. ;-)
