No. I've disagreed with lots of people, and if they put their argument across in a coherent and well-constructed manner, I will give them the respect they deserve. If they post a stream of misspelled nonsense about "freedom" and winning wars hundreds of years ago, then I will give it short shrift.

It wasn't even an argument. It was rhetoric and jingoism on an industrial scale.

Why don't YOU explain to me what was so compelling about Carjack's argument? I'm all ears.

What's funny is that I'm still not entirely convinced it wasn't a wind-up, and yet you're here defending it to the hilt!

Ah, so you're suggesting I don't own an R8?

I'm not really interested in "proving" myself to others because quite frankly I couldn't care less. The last time I did that was a few weeks ago when Brigand assumed I was lying about being a pilot in the RAF, and I proved him wrong that time. Do you want to try your luck this time?

As it happens I posted two videos of me driving said R8 in this very forum a few hours ago...

I'm not sure what's funnier. Carjack 's original post, or the fact that Rocketretro was trying to defend it without the slightest thought that it might be a joke.

Yes, we all had a laugh at Swanwick this afternoon about these posts! no hard feelings.

You really are sensitive. You were defending a joke post from Carjack, without the slightest hint of irony, and you don't see the funny side?

One thing I've noticed in this area of the forum, is that there are a few people who are happy to give other people a bit of a "robust" dig in the ribs in the name of a joke, or "banter" (God, I hate that term), but they don't like it when it's done back at them.
