I know Audi-Sport.net is very friendly and good natured, but it's worth taking a look at this very important piece of case law:

Linky

It's always worth bearing this in mind before saying anything too excitable on cyberspace.

I'm sure our Efficient and well respected MODS will have stepped in long before we get to this - HOPEFULLY

Well you'll all be pleased to know I've written some stuff on another some what larger forum that could potentially be very irritating if the wrong person reads it... but hey ho if the **** in question is going to lie about his identity I feel I should post it one one of the largest forums in the uk.

I'm a big fan of The Apprentice. The five fellas left are:

Ansell
Paul
Samuel
Syed
Tuan

Syed looks to be the most irritating.

Are you sure this wasn't a sarcastic reference to one of the terms used in the original case?

I think you may find it is... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Aye, if you read the link you posted to the legal action cited the first insult as "Lard Brain"....

Sarcasm, the lowest form of wit perhaps, but prevelant here...

No offence /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Tuan is a true petrolhead by the way and a nice chap, his garage at the end of last year included a Lamobo Murci, F360 and a TVR Sagaris - and they wouldn't let him turn up to the house in his Lambo - to/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/swear.gifers!

I also think he is about the only one on the show that is already very sucessful.

Sarcasm is the only was I can make it through life without needing to by a machine gun and "off" some people - the only problem is it's completely lost on most of the americans I have to speak to on a daily basis (I get those funny silences on conference calls whenever I make a joke /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif)

Sounds libelous to me /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Really?
I'd have thought David was much more obviously English...

As for looking for ex-pats...nah, I was 6 when I relocated north...and that was a long time ago.

Like Ess_Three says, we're here for their jobs and their women! Been here since I was 7, and I'm still pround of my english accent /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

They seem to think so:

"It's SH!TE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the f*cking Earth! The most wretched miserable servile pathetic trash that was ever shat on civilization. Some people hate the English. I don't. They're just w*nkers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by w*nkers. Can't even find a decent culture to get colonized by. We're ruled by effete assholes. It's a sh!te state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and all the fresh air in the world won't make any f*cking difference! "

Ahem
 
The women??? You into blue skin, a few too many chip suppers and donned in a brilliant white shell suit with excessive bling gold jewellery? LOL - I need to get out of Kilwinning!!!

Glad you kept your accent, when my coz from Doncaster comes up here to stay with me it only takes a week for her to loose her accent (and the slight lisp too ????)

I agree with Renton - I dont hate the English - well, maybe just Londoners /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/lol.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beerchug.gif

How old are you now then Chris?

My accent does change depending on circumstances...I can pass for a local if I want to...
Normally though, I suppose I'm just a non-placable non-native.
 
32 now.......my god it's been 25 years in this grey hell!

The English think I'm Scottish / the Scottish think I'm English. My accent goes either way to. Very useful at times.

2 years...

I've been in the right place, at the right time when certain Oil companies have been handing out redundancy packages...

EnCana (Amerada Hess) kindly paid a sizable chunk of my new C4S!

You can tell I'm not that old, nor wise, or I'd have spent the money in a more sensible (or should that say responsible) way...

Ewan...you need to get out more!!

Recently I have sampled Dundee's finest nightlife (thanks to the hospitality of David R) and very fine viewing it made too...

Even my hometown of Ellon is respectable.

We shall see what Aberdeen has to offer soon...

That was my thought Kev..
Young enough to enjoy it...old enough to not crash it within the first week...oh, and afford the insurance (just)

If you have the means & desire...do it!
There is no feeling like it...a car like that just pushes bittons other cars can't...ans makes you feel special every time you look at it, never mind drive it.

I giggle every time I start it...it's great!!
