I notice my profile picture has changed, my Wife claims she has had no involvement and understanding her level of technical expertise, I believe her!
I will find and expose the person responsible.
This is going to become Socksgate
-
Hes a lot better looking than you anyway George. ;D
-
very very cute!
-
very very cute!
And what do you think of the dog Angela ?
-
Brilliant! Well done Chris, great improvement
-
Yes well done Chris :D
-
After meticulous investigation, it would appear that the guilty party lives north of the border ! Somewhere around Perth maybe?
-
What a vile picture!! In the very worst possible taste!! I was referring to the picture of the pistol held to the puppy's head, which thank goodness has now disappeared. Sorry if it's a bit OTT but it actually happens and it's distressing to look at, even if it was meant to be jocular. >:(

Is there anyone who could check the IPs for you?
-
Yes, and I've traced it to a particular household, some Scotsman called Campbell
-
I'll see if we have any members matching those details you provide :D
-
For the benefit of others, Chris spotted this little guy while out on our Tuesday bike ride a few weeks ago, at that time he still didn't have his eyes open, she christened him Socks and wanted to bring him home. Last week we stopped for lunch and only Socks and his Sister remain without a home. On a Facebook group I asked for support from others to resist Chris's pleas to become his new Mum ( knowing full well I wouldn't get any support)
Quite Spookily, his picture has replaced my profile pic.

Socks was absolutely gorgeous and I sooooo wanted him but George is being a meanie and won't let me! I know he is being the sensible one as we always said we wouldn't tie ourselves down with pets but I would have made an exception for socks!! I just hope he goes to someone who will love him as much as I would!!!

You Bar Steward !
-
Go on George, you know you want to !! ;D
-
What an absolute sweetie, how can you resist those eyes? :)
-
Don't think I haven't noticed its changed again !
-
Go for it Socks ,adopt George. ;D
-
are there any updates to this, I love a happy ending!
-
It's such a sad ending, He attempted to follow us home and fell into the river, he was swept down stream where he managed to clamber out only to be savaged by a goat, in his attempt to get away he was hit by a dolmus and thrown through the air and landed in a prickly pair bush, the bush was growing in a manure dump which he had to crawl through to escape. Chris picked him up, took one look and said "Nah, lets leave it" he's now back on the farm being bullied by the chickens.
-
George - that is very naughty- as if I'd say that!! I'd have taken him home, given him a bath and put him to rest in a nice comfy bed - YOURS!!!!!!!
-
I think after all of that you have a responsibility to adopt that pup - can you imagine being hen-pecked??????
-
Awwww how can you resist him George? At least it is giving us some relief from the vile contributions to the Maggie Thatcher is dead thread.!!!!! Go on, adopt him, we all know you want to. :D :D
-
Vile contributions? It was very mild - you should see Facebook!!!
-
There have been vile contributions made in this thread, well according to the Bucket, as stated in her post on page 1.
As part of the story of 'socks' I briefly changed my profile picture to a cartoon dog holding a colt 45 to his head.
-
Mrs Bucket obviously doesn't have the reply to a topic option sussed, being such a new member I suppose it's understandable. I just received this from her by way of a personal message :
You pathetic little ****!! CompAre of the fashion show!!! LMFAO at your spelling!!!
-
AND you deserved it for what you said to me!!
-
I know my husband sometimes has a 'weird' sense of humour but at least he doesn't have a foul mouth!! And you a lady "Mrs Bucket"!!!!! Well now it's my turn to LOL, but I said it bit more politely!!
-
now will someone please tell me about the puppy, pretty please, ?
-
Ahhh, sorry Angela - George won on this occasion!! My head knows that it makes sense, but my heart is broken!! He was so adorable but dogs do take a lot of looking after (if they are looked after properly) and we didn't want to commit to the responsibility. We did used to have a dog many years ago, a Jack Russell and 3 cats and we always said that when they went to pet heaven we wouldn't replace them!! Maybe in a few years we might have a change of heart but for the moment we are pet free!! PS - George assures me that Socks has gone to good home with nice new parents!!
-
I'm afraid your husband has no sense of humour, nor can he spell correctly but boy can he crawl!!!!
-
Thank you. He was adorable, I'd have been the same. We are planning a move out to Calis next year with our two Jack Russells, but I'm sure once we lose them and taste the freedom it'll be a big decision to get another dog.
-
This was a lovely feel good topic now as good as ruined. Please return to topic or that will be two topics locked in one evening.
-
Not you angela :)
-
Good luck with the move Angela and I hope your Jack Russell's adapt ok to their new way of life - I'm sure they will as many other ex pats have brought their pets over and they seem fine. Maybe I'll bump into you when you're taking them for a walk along the prom!!
-
Angela, I've added a profile picture so if you do recognise us out and about be sure to say hello. Would be lovely to meet you especially if you've got the dogs in tow. x
-
Lock it then!! He launched an attack on me. I even apologised by private message and then he launches another one!!
-
I'm not going to argue with you Mrs. Bucket mouth. You have turned each and every topic you have participated in into an argument. You seem to have the most amazing ability to steer the most innocent of subjects or comments into the biggest negative possible, you turn a simple request for a taxi number into a reason to become housebound in Calis where apparently nearly everyone carries guns. Your morbid fear of guns expressed in this topic becomes the source of uncontrollable laughter in another thread. Even though you claim not to know the area well, you then become expert on which bars are the most unsuitable for young visitors.
I sussed you out from day one and you didn't like it, your initial creeping private messages turned into demand for a response, you even had the brass neck to bring the children's charity I help into your idle threats, how despicable you are.
As far as I'm still concerned, there is something about you that doesn't add up.
There has been a long line of weirdos join this forum and try to cause division among friends, very much as you did in this, the most innocent of subject matter. You have failed here and you will fail again.
-
I have a phobia of guns. I do NOT lie. I turned it into a joke to try to take the fear out of it. I do NOT know the area, indeed I would not have a clue how to get from one end to the other of Calis but I have been into one or two bars with my daughter.
You sussed me out?? Well, I would suggest you suss again!!
Idle threats?? I have threatened absolutely nothing. I offered to help your charity, supplementary to other Charities I regularly help but I asked for an apology from you in return for the slur upon my character that you had already made public on this Forum, and you don't even know me!!
You are entitled to concern yourself just as much as you like about there being something about me that doesn't add up. I'd be extremely interested in anything you come up with!
Now I'm a weirdo. I would take that comment back if I were you. You most certainly are a creep and I don't even need to see you in person to suss that out!!
Sling your despicable hook!!

Mrs HB - can I respectfully suggest that you take some time away from this Forum.
(We have corresponded privately since you joined and I had hoped that I had helped but I have to say that I would rather not discuss this further)
-
Just a bit more tonic might be the answer...
-
MrsH:
I salute your indefatigability !
-
How dare you join a forum and be so rude and turn every discussion into being about you.
George is probably the most gentlemanly of all the people I've met since moving to Calis 2 years ago.
He is an amazing ambassador for the children's charity.
Seems to me you've just joined to start arguments at every opportunity.
I think you should sling your despicable hook Mrs HB.
-
Now removed - it's been a while, we're not a ban 'em forum by any means. I am also being bombarded with PMs asking me to remove her. I told her a simple alternative is not to post and not to come but this was apparently not acceptable. It was rather like she needed to give up smoking but thought it my responsibility to confiscate the packet.
Some fluffy CBF topics ruined today, as was the Thatcher one, which I genuinely thought showed how much better we are than Facebook :)
Respect other members please. I know 99.99% of you do.
-
"Some fluffy CBF topics ruined today, as was the Thatcher one, which I genuinely thought showed how much better we are than Facebook"
totally agree - some of the facebook stuff was nothing short of sickening.
Had to defriend a few yesterday :(.
-
There are two things I have learned in the 10 years of CBF
1. Some people simply are not suitable for discussion forums
2. Some people simply are not suitable for moving abroad
In this case I know one to be the case, and suspect the other to be likely.
-
Just as I was getting the hang of her debating style.
-
Thanks God for that. She was doing me head in!
-
Indeed, how to make a forum 'all about you'.......strange one.
Hopefully whoever on here has agreed a long term rental with her is prepared for some challenges!
-
well there really is nowt so queer as folk, as my dad would have said!! ;)
-
Followed her posts on Thatcher, thought that was bad enough, in all the hidden messages did anyone enquire how long ago she, that is an assunption as the name does not always depict the sex, enquire when they took the bang to the head? ;)
-

Grief affects people in different ways.
-
Yes amca suffering is one thing giving it is another ;)
-
She may well have been educated, but in the end she showed her true colours in more ways than one. Her obsession with laughter was really weird.
-
quite bizarre behaviour, in the end she was like a caricature of a person, but just makes you wonder what was the point?
-
Since she is so incredibly intelligent she may suffer from the same condition as Marvin - who has a "brain the size of a planet".
-
Should have given her read only access ;)
It would have worked like a gag !!!!! ;D ;D ;D

I was sure that you were going to say Paranoid.

Back on subject...................are you getting a dog then George ;)
-
Sadly not Russ - so it seems that it has caused poor Mrs Bucket all that grief for nothing!! What a shame - NOT!! Thank God she's gone because if she had insulted my husband one more time I would not have been a happy bunny!!!
-
Back on topic indeed Russ, back on friendly banter

This is how this all started, don't blame me if it goes tits up again
-
If you and your wife avoided such controversial issues it would have been ok!
-
Ahhhh - my 2 favourite boys in one picture!! How cute - love it!!
-
I thought she was on drugs!!!!!
-
Well Jim and I have laughed our heads off at these, CBF has the funniest members ever. Did think Mrs B had a screw loose though, we were going to pm her as Mr. Smith and Mrs. Western........threatening her for threatening our friend.
-
Well that all escalated quickly! Remember reading a restaurant review and thinking about how out of hand some of the topics went, I log on today after a meal at Nandos and see Mrs B has gone!
Thought all the laughter in the long-term rental topic was odd, got very very off topic. Nae mind, I'm about to start a topic to get in the holiday mood! 3 months to wait this monday!
