Subject: Hey, give us English a break !
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 93 11:58:18 BST
>>>>>[ Hey now come on everyone, a mere jest, a wheeze a, jocular taunt, a
comment to be grinned at and then ignored, not a comment to start wars (unless
a wormhole in the space time continue-um happens to appear close by), certainly
not a comment to make mortal enemies, that is all it was, I'm pretty sure the
original comment had a little smiley :) so everyone new it was meant as a joke.
So come on now, everyone enjoys a joke, the English make fun of the Scots and
Irish (no enraged Irish men please) and vice-versa, everyone makes fun of the
Belgians, I'm not too sure who the Americans make fun of, even though I've
lived in Seattle for the last 6 years, maybe the Americans make fun of the
English ?
So here's one wee Englishman saying don't lets fight between ourselves,
otherwise we are just doing the corps jobs for them (btw I am wee 5'6'')

>>>>>[ Highlander if you still don't see the funny side please accept my
apologies, after all I could hardly be anti-Scottish when the gal I was engaged
to back in ol' blighty was from Elgin. Ah ... she was a stunner, a wee red
head with a passion to match. But enough reminiscing, as a gesture of goodwill
I've arranged a table for you and 5 friends at the Space Needle, just ring the
needle to book a date and confirm the number of people (more than 5 is fine),
and I'll pick up the tab. ]<<<<<

I've
no grudge with anyone unless you happen to be one certain Mr Johnson who works
for MCT, then you ought to be worried. ]<<<<<
