Another empathic moment from x-amount :roll:

How's about you stop f*cking sniping at everything I say?

If you read the post and didn't just blindly follow what your friends have said, then maybe you'd see I was... oh forget it. :roll:

Don't be that egocentric, dear, there's nothing to see with you, it's about your manner of speaking: What you said to Robder could be said in a more tolerant and nice way, in my country it's called respect for other's opinions aka empathie

1. That's not empathy. (though I'll assume you can play the laguage card on that one)

2. What about my feelings?

Whiklst it bemuses me becaus eyou come across as quite a laid back, happy clappy type, you love to pick on me.

FFS, I had an opinion, and I'm proud of it. Whilst I may not say it in the pwettiest of ways, I'm glad it gave across how strongly I felt about it.

And since we're being condescending, how's my ironing getting on?

;) :lol:

Remembrance Day means a lot to me for many reasons:
I'm a former serviceman and both my Grandfathers served bravely in WWII, one winning the George Medal at the evacuation of Dunkirk (the George Medal at the time was the 2nd highest honour an ordinary (i.e. not an officer) soldier could be honoured with (officers could be awarded with the George Cross). If you've seen Saving Private Ryan, imagine the first 20 minutes of that film but with the might of the Luftwaffe bearing down on them aswell. He was one of the last ten men off the beach as a volunteer in the rear-guard action.
My other Grandfather was part of the Normandy landings.
We can't even begin to imagine the bravery every man involved on either side showed. Yes war is wrong. And yes, I believe the occupation of Iraq is wrong. But please don't use your objection to one thing soil the memories of brave men without whom the world would be a very different and highly likely darker place.
I was also born and brought up in a small Northern mill town called Accrington. Some of you may of heard about The Accrington Pals- The 11th East Lancs. (service) Battallion made up of volunteers from Accrington and the surrounding towns. It was the largest volunteer regiment gathered during WWI coming from a tiny town like Accrington (current population 40,000). The town was devastated in one morning on 1st July 1916, the 1st Battle of the Somme. On that fateful morning almost all of the town's young (and some not so young) men were wiped out. The town never recovered.

So please, whatever you feel about the current situation in the world, wear a poppy, be proud to wear it, and educate those who don't understand why we wear them.
Lest we forget.

i've spent a while reading some of the stories at:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/ww2

and they are amazing.


I guess some of us feel more passionately about it than others (my father and brother were both servicemen, one who was wounded in battle in the first Gulf War) - but I hope the thread encourages debate, not criticism.

Not much point in deleting it all if you're here.

Knew of your link though of course and admire you not reacting terribly.

We can discuss the deep meaning of empathy if you want :lol:
You seem a pure spanish, the passion you put in every thing you defend sometimes it's too much, if you know what I mean. YOur opinions and feelings are 100% respectable, as other people who feels and have differents opinions are. There's no need to get into a personal thing just cos someone doesn't thinks/feels the same. THat's democracy.

Ironing, what ironing? :lol: ;)

Spanish? I'm not that narrow minded ;)

Though a lot of people do say I have that Continental look or glow to my skin-tone.

I always thought I looked more, I dunno, Italian though.

Like a Stallion.

In Flanders fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky,
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
