I remember the words still so clearly after 40yrs " I hope you're going to pay for that" The words whispered over my shoulder by my mother in the local corner shop as I stuck a curly wurly into my pocket. Wishing you both a positive 2020 cheers! Simon. A.K.A The Curly Wurly Kid!

[@kevym8985]

comes across a very genuine geezer, fairplay to him.

[@andrewparry8439]

I love when he says give someone a way out. That's true, corner a person and it's on

[@andrewparry8439]

I agree you have to let someone leave with their pride if you don't want repercussions. I've done it even after knocking someone out by saying I was lucky and shit like that a buying them a pint. They know it's bullshit, you know it's bullshit but if it saves agro it's worth it.
