When men ( and it is almost always men ) start asking leading questions and you know how it's going to culminate. Had to block someone elsewhere for this. Totally gave me the ick.

I have some rather fun Gerry stories , if I ever encounter you face to face I shall tell you them and you shall howl laughing. Sadly, we never get anyone who looks like Che in this part of the world!

I'd have imagined thetre were more solid ways to try andprove a case than a beret!

My ( west Belfast) grammar school demanded we wear berets as part of the uniform.

Turns out decades of isolating Iran from the global economy made them give less of a fuck about destroying it

This makes me sad. Only 6 years ago, feels like a lifetime.
We knew we were watching our world end. Its a trauma which i think affected many people.

I grew up from the start of the Troubles, seeing death regularly just made me selective woth words, and reliant on books to parse what was happening. Violence does that I think ( and i am sorry you had DV experiences )

We sometimes prefer to watch and learn at that age rather than chitter. A lot to be said for it
