Babygael,
He sure did make life interesting and whatever he was or was not, he was all for an independence Scotland and as an orator, a pleasure to listen to.

Babygael.
I can't be bothered reading any more of Carols ravings. She seems intent on stirring things up yet again, on this thread.
It didn't work on the other thread so she's trying again here. I think I will just treat her with contempt and ignore. That way she can talk to herself, 'cos she sure likes the sound of her own voice, or in this case likes to read her own words, especially if she thinks her words might bother me....as if.

I met the guy the once and he seemed like a nice enough guy. I can totally understand that someone could end up quite bitter on finding out that it was a con. I'm surprised there's many folk out there with much sympathy for him. Any idea what he's doing with himself now?

Also, regarding Dave's 'title'... anyone got any good ideas? So far we have Dave's suggestions 'troublemaker', 'smart-alec' etc we could also term him 'definitely not a nationalist'. Any other good ones?

Also, Dave, I totally sympathise. I would never normally call myself a nationalist, although I would fit some of the definitions out there.

How about Independentist. Must admit I am bemused. I did not really know there was a difference and still don't see it.

Yes, Albany was/is a nice, unpretentious guy, even if he did fool us, and he'd still get a cuppa at my house because I truly liked him and he was my friend, and no matter what happens to my friends, I stick by them or I would have had no right to call myself a friend in the first place.
He did a lot for some folk who were quick enough to ingratiate themselves with him, but sadly those he thought the most of, were the first to disown him and kick him when he went down.
Typical human behaviour of course.
I can tell you that he is doing just fine now and is no longer in Belgium, having left there after his father died..

Well I guess it's the context that the word is used. Although I've always been pro-indepedence, I don't come from a 'nationalist' family and when I was at university nationalism was always a dirty word with the negative connotations to the fore. For many, it is used very different context, so I can understand that it's perfectly acceptable. Independentist or independentista sound good though Smile

Thanks for letting us know about Michael. I won't comment too much as I don't know the details of the situation. I guess different people will react in different ways to being fooled like that and perhaps the closer you are, the most let down you will feel.

Margaret the guy stabbed you in the back, what planet are you on? Friends don't deceive you. As for the ones he thought the most of???? The guy was an expert at fraud, he got away with it for 30 years, it wasn't just Scotland he hoodwinked, the damage he did was global. We are the innocent parties not him.

As for him doing fine, sure no doubt with loyal supporters such as yourself following like sheep keeping his fantasy alive.

SLG nope not bitter. It pisses me off when folk like Margaret and her minority take their vengeance out on the likes of myself rather than their fantasy prince who caused the path of destruction

SLG just saw your post, I wasn't close to Michael, so it's nothing to do with let down

regards

"Flogging a dead horse"? Does that mean, into sadism, necrophilia, and bestiality?

Mairead suggested that, in saying I'm a supporter of independence but not a Nationalist, I was "nit picking". Since YOU had made that very same accusation against me many times, I asked if she'd been listening to you.......

Dave, I did suggest independentist.
Re Carol and bringing her name up, every time anyone brings my name up on any forum Carol is in, you can expect the Albany issue to rise again. Tedious I know, but that's life.
I remember the things she has said about you too and the disruption she caused..
ERM, don't you understand that Carol sees herself as the best person to lead us to independence and always has to be the great 'I am'.
The rest of us count for little in her eyes.
As for 'Listening to Carol' geez Dave, but it would be hard indeed not to hear her. Pathetic, I know but there we go. LOL

I know, I wasn't really upset, and I WAS just joking about you sounding like Carol!

> Dave, I did suggest independentist.

What kind of a dentist is that?

Mind you, trying to get this description of me changed IS a bit like pulling teeth......

Margaret I don't stab Dave behind his back he knows how I feel about him so pointless stirring there. As a person he's a pain and I have very little respect towards him but there is no hatred there. Unlike your and others clear hatred towards me.

Dave in this instance re posting this thread I did not think you were nit picking, but yet again I know you better than Margaret

Yawn ,Yawn, Yawn. Boring name calling as per usual.
The only individual you value is yourelf, hence most of your posts usually contain the words, 'I take the credit for,' 'I was responsible for' etc etc etc.
Likewise the only opinions which matter to you are your own.
Yawn, Yawn, Yawn.

Mornig Dave,
Glad you were joking about me sounding like Carol 'cos that's one insult I'd really find hard to forgive.

What kind of dentist. Well I have to asdmit I'm stuck on that one. Just seemed like a good option to nationalist. Very Happy
