yes some interesting points of veiw i just dont like it when you feel that people are waiting in the wings to swoop if your opinion differs from theres. ive been following a long time so i know who they are especialy when the conversasion appeared to be quite light hearted at that time dont mean today just in general i think it would cause some people to withold their opinion

Evening everyone.

If I'm going to be accused of taking Josie's column too seriously then so be it. If it's just a bit of fun then it doesn't matter anyway...does it?


To me the whole thing comes across as a construct to promote the services of A&L Dental Lab rather than just saying her boyfriend's had his teeth done. The column carries this line: "Thankfully A&L dental lab has given him a new white one and after road-testing with a few snogathons, he's chuffed."

I cannot read that without hearing the typical tones of someone in a standard toothpaste advert.

But then, let's look at the flip side. Say this week's column isn't being used as a space for free promotion and it's simply just detailing events. If Josie had said Luke had told her on their second date she had to get her teeth sorted, what would our opinion of him be? Well, of course, it wouldn't mean much as that apparently didn't happen. However, Josie tells us she did tell someone she was only on a second date with that they had to change something about their natural appearance. Not saying that they could get it fixed if they wanted, but that they had to change it and that after they had she is now happy with their appearance. So what's our opinion of Josie supposed to be?

Is that humour or rudeness covered by humour?


Anyone from the Qwerty Appreciation Thread know what he is going on about now

The only Qwerty stuff I see these days is what's brought onto here and I don't often click on the links they give but I had a look at this one. I don't know how much it goes with other stuff from Qwerty's stable but this seems to be saying something about Josie's holiday. She is choosing to be alone rather than choosing to be with the person she loves. That's my interpretation, anyway.

It's a funny thing, but back in October I did post on here that I would be astonished if Josie and Luke went away on holiday together. However, that post had been removed by the time I returned the next day and I went off to support Aaron on BB12 for a while so didn't follow it up.
















Oh yeah..John James. That guy.

The smile reaches his eyes. Says enough for me.

And I'm still confused by the fact that people support that when it causes more hate/drama for both or either John or Josie. That's not fun for me. I enjoy the positive things.

Quoted from Killing Time - couldn't get quotes to work right.


Yes, the extreme ones. Since the breakup drama began that's how this thread has labeled them. I don't think the humor makes qwerty any better than the others. Ben could be funny in the BB house, but his humor was usually a put down of someone. It's not a good thing and I don't think qwerty's intent is just to be funny, I think it's to preach, to belittle, and to hurt the people involved, whoever he's targetting at the moment. And I'm not a fan of that.



Thank you for seeing what is there, that his behavior is excused here. I'm not making it up or looking for a fight in here as people seem to think. And that does make sense to some extent. But the fact that John's hate-filled tweets and some of his actions towards Josie to purposely hurt her are obvious, he still gets a pass on these and [/b]they are romanticized for what people wish his intent is [/b], while Josie has just given her opinion on her relationship and is criticized for it. And someone pointed out recently, she hasn't given out details. She's just stated how she felt in the relationship. John doesn't mince his words. Which is why I take what he says at face value, not creating a story that I want to believe.




This is what I'm talking about, the need to keep the drama going. Most people break up and the drama dies down fairly quickly. John and Josie still haven't had a respite from it and we're closing in on a year since he left. These people have their own agenda, and I include qwerty in that. Just because he posts sappy things occaisionally, he's still keeping the drama up which keeps the different sides going at each other, and not allowing John or Josie to move on, forget, forgive, and heal. I've said it here before, people who put their own agendas before John or Josie's aren't supporting them.
evening everyone

ferfs, a lot of what you're saying is probably quite true in some peoples mind & even maybe BIB, but, i'm sure many just like to remember what he was like, the last time we really saw him & as for his intent, well, noone really knows, & maybe some feel he looks tired & pale in his latest photo, & their reasons could be josie related, while others thinks he looks great.
i think most of us know what's what between these two now, well as much as we can, but the minute we start saying that out loud, on here, well, it could be the death of the jjjat & to many, that would be the worst possible outcome,as many come here, myself included, to cheer themselves up, talk to friends etc.

so discussions either go one way or the other, as lets face it, memories fade, although we do have killingtime who always reminds us, thank god
i hope even some of that makes sense, as i started to lose my thread a bit as i was typing lol

edit: didnt bib, but this is what should have hi lighted...
pass on these and they are romanticized for what people wish his intent is

Very quickly popping in to say sorry i did not make it back this afternoon
but the boilerman came and has only just left.
I think he must have built a new boiler from scratch the time he has been here.
The cheek of him knew no bounds though.
He not only accepted one cup of tea , he accepted two AND a slice of cake.
How Ruuuuude.
I am in the process of making chilli for dinner and i think he was angling for an invite.
Wouldn.t have minded if he had been a pretty boy (my thing)
but he resembled Kenneth Williams (god rest his soul).
Spoke like him as well.
Cant be dealing (with a straight face)with that.

Alas all iv'e got time for as i must tweak my chilli.
A good tweaking does everything good you know.

BBL Shem xx

ps Barbara my birthday is ..............what else for a romantic like me 14th Feb xx

I'm not here really but think we should do something nice for Josie's birthday as it is coming up (Those who do not like her need not apply or offer up suggestions) But something nice was done for John, so I hope we can do something to show her we care too.

Any ideas, post on here or send me a PM! Now, I am off to do some tinkering to my latest blog before my mouth runs away with me about certain matters then I really shouldn't .. so I WON'T! XX
