Why don't you just change you avi to "Obtuse" and save us all a lot of time.
If you haven't got the cojones to get into a debate why don't you just slink off and play netball.

I do hug men as well, not all of them, only the ones I like.
I'm not very pc amongst friends but when dealing with people in a professional capacity or simply amongst people I don't know too well I try not to offend them.
I call this politeness.
If I don't trust someone I play it straight.
I have no power or influence over anybody at work and it is abuse of those that is the problem.

Well then I thought I had finished with this thread but some posts are heaven sent, quote Chips above,

“I'm not very pc amongst friends but when dealing with people in a professional capacity or simply amongst people I don't know too well I try not to offend them.
I call this politeness” so people you don’t know so well you try not to offend them, and you call this politeness,

So how come tonight on the thread “Awkward Customers” this being the first post from new member Ron12 you have called him a liar in 2 of your posts on that thread, your posts were 11, and 15 when he appears to be making an honest statement,

In case you need reminding of the SF forum mission statement

“The Screwfix Community Forum strives to be a friendly and supportive place“

It may be unreasonable of me but I would take that to mean don’t call members liars. Certainly not on a hunch

Anyway don’t bother answering DA will be along shortly to answer on your behalf and I must admit he’s much more fun. Over to you DA
 
I didn't call him a liar, I suggested there was more to the story than he was letting on and I'm sure I'll be justified in the end and I was polite.
I would also suggest that there is more to your post than a worry about the op's feelings and that you are a sanctimonious **** :)
And no I don't crack jokes with people I don't like, I save that and the touchy feely stuff for my friends.

What's that?

It's what is commonly referred to as a 'question', the 'normal' response to a 'question' is to provide something commonly referred to as an 'answer'. Stick with us Chipps you'll soon get the hang of it, or maybe not.
 
I know you have problems with the concept of questions but this was an easy one, what's grindr?

Now, now, chippy chops.
Pointing out that you are not exempt from the rules of forum decorum that you yourself declared, should not be seen in any way as lacking cojones. Far from it.
I've proven your hypocritical tendencies on this very thread, and yet you accuse me of being obtuse. Hmmm?

Anywho.
What are your thoughts on the article you posted?

I'm not totally sure but I believe I read, possibly in The Guardian, that it is a mobile phone app that introduces men to other men who like to hug each other, or something like that.

They will be the same thoughts that I told you the first time you asked this question, what are your answers to the questions I asked at the same time or are you sticking to being obtuse?
Come on, man up and answer a question

If SF pete has a problem then I'm sure he will let me know so don't worry your pretty head about it.

It's an amusing article with a dramatic headline stating we'll be paying for Brexit until 2060 or something, reading further it points out that the settlement figure is at the mid point of all the previous estimates, and 2.5 billion, possibly for pensions will be staged over the next whatever number of years, big deal, non story.
