What is the problem with posting on an interesting part of the forum?
I like to read the jokes for blokes, but I have no addition to make. Should I post bad jokes?

They were certainly courageous men and women, unfortunately their nation then forced their own form of tyranny on the countries that hoped for liberation . It took another 45 years before true democracy returned.

Unfortunately your name could be seen to represent the imposition of another form of tyranny and loss of true democracy


My name incidentally is just that of a town in Scotland which was the birthplace of an engineer I hold in high regard

I just find it better to get to know people I am talking to, eg if I didn't know JBR from other parts of the forum we might fall out big time but we know each other and can separate our political differences from our personalities and I certainly like and respect JBR I hope he feels same about me. If we just met in political threads it may be very different.

Yes, I feel the same about you, Julia.

But I'd avoid the political threads, if I were you, because I tend to speak my mind!

Adversaries can respect each other, even though they have completely different view points. As you probably know, Montgomery had a photograph of Rommel above his camin. Both men respected each other although they never met in person.

For you and all others on this forum, the best wishes for 2019.
