Hi! Another brit here. Which bit of the south are you from? I'm Hastings-bred, myself although I've not lived there for 17 years now!

It's a good name I think, surely sooner or later one of these new diseases will live up to the hype, or one of the classics will make a come back.

Hello Optimistic Mysanthrope, you probably won't like me but I can respect that.

Alright mate? I'm from the Isle of Wight. Where abouts are you now then?

Never really visited the Isle of Wight, only done the festivals there. I assume as a local, you hate them? Wink

I'm living & working in Norwich now. Duller, on paper, than the IoW but there's a cracking free party scene and some of the best jungle producers & DJs in Europe.

I can also confirm that some of the stories about its inhabitants are true...

Fair one Smile

The festivals can be a pain in the arse for traffic, but that's about it really. I've only been to the IoW festival once when I was bar staff and it seemed a bit naff really. It's not really my scene anyway, but the scale of it was a bit of a let down.

I don't have much experience of Norfolk. I knew one guy from there who was incredibly intelligent, but the accent hid it well Big Grin

tisk tisk, Ben. Breeding now? You're talking about breeding and partying?

*nods head to the side and stares at you with innocent bunny eyes
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Hiya! London here.

I used to go to Sandown on the Island twice a year. Lovely place. Lots of old people.

Is it just Sandown that's full of old people or is it the entire island?

I can't help but wonder if there actually is anything to do there; it looks quite small and isolated and bingo probably gets boring very very quickly....
