Do you want to give some examples of the few, the unforgiveables? I'm not sure that this concept is suited for those who we've never met or known personally to some extent, for example, Stalin would be a meaningless example.

I have an aunt who tried to manipulate me by emotional torture when I was in my early teens, I think her behaviour was unforgiveable but I dont bear her any rancor, on the other hand I dont intend to ever see her again and I won't be at her funeral.

Epi,

My few would include paedo`s and such like. Their headstones should be engraved....... Never to be forgiven.

Redemption is available to most others.

I agree but then is it accurate to say there's only a few?

Hello everyone

I was under the impression that I was visiting the Van Der Wheil discussion forum. I seem to have made a mistake.............

(wanders off bewildered)

Sorry to missuse the forum, I guess once Fulham started it others, including myself, followed his example.

RN,

Ditto.

Try speaking a bit of VDW, it may attract the like minded.

Thank you for your kind words and your enjoyable post.
I agree with all you say, but if I ever walk into yer local please dont skin me at the pool table or I will have to get the old arm out of retirement.By the way you would have a decent shout at beating me at it now as I eventually did tear muscles/ligaments doing it and even a measure up these days would have me in pain.Yes' a mispent youth does catch up with you eventually.
Cheers

on this thread I have seen more life in a prison blanket

Dr Fulham,

A little while ago you expressed an opinion that without abuse this thread could confidently be expected to resume its former liveliness.

The patient is clearly still in intensive care. I was wondering whether your confidence was, in hindsight misplaced, as the poor soul appears to have slipped into a coma.

Do you think BA will recover from last week's disaster, and if so under what conditions and over how long a period?

Dr Fulham,

I see no similarity between the two and I haven`t previously expressed an opinion on BA`s future.

If you think about it a bit harder, I have confidence that you'll see the similarity.

Dr Fulham,

Mine wasn`t a VDW question and it doesn`t require a cryptic answer.

Shall we start again?

BA had a bad weekend,This thread has had a bad 3 months,
What then is the similarity?

Confidence has given way to prevarication......nuff said.

What the **** is BA and where's it's relevence other than acronymity?

It appears that this thread has finally come to an end.
If everyone who used it for VDW discussion has packed their bags and moved elsewhere then I will hide this section of the forum from view.
I don't see why I should let new members of the so called Secret VDW Forum share the benefit of this thread.
Thank you to all who have contributed and answered their critics and to the others

Gummy

Can we suggest apt song titles:

So long it`s been good to know you.

Leaving on a jet plane (don`t know when I`ll be back again).

Well I`m sad to say I`m on my way (wont be back for many a day)

Last train to San Fernando (if you miss this one you`ll never get another one)
