and yet another topic turning into personal insults

Not me who does the PERSONAL insults .
It's always the same person who does it.
Everyone knows who he is .

He just needs to get out more .

I know its not just you but you do appear to cast the majority of insults.. and have seen on another thread a couple of weeks ago you total hatred of scouse lads ...and now its spilled over onto the plumbing thread ..I will not get into a spat with you as the last time a couple of weeks ago I found myself giving out personal insults which is not like me and tbh to do that was well below my standards...I lowered myself to your level

My level ?
You just cant resist being insulting also.
Lets make a deal- stay away from me And I will stay away from you.. End of.

I have to say though- that the people who shout loudest about myself and a few other people- are the ones who continually insult others . Personal insults, disgusting allegations, and profanities galore.
They all seem to 'clump' together --and when one of them smells blood- the rest of the pack come zooming in.

It's the norm on DIYnot - period! I remember why I don’t bother much with this board now.

Anyway, if we may actually revert to the subject matter....

Good luck with that Calorific. I’d like to engage more but it’s only a matter of time before the inevitable.

Oh well, I managed break my record for staying. I feel sorry for the poor referees, I mean mods. Have a nice Christmas everyone....

HOW SAVILE BETRAYED HIS OWN RELATIVES: THE FAMILY STATEMENT IN FULL

A year ago our uncle, Sir Jimmy Savile, passed away.
It was a shock when it happened as I had only seen him the week before and although seeming under the weather, I had no concerns over his wellbeing.
A week later he was dead and my cousin and I were left with the task of organising his funeral.
We were proud of him. Proud of his achievements and the help he had been able to give to others.
We knew nothing of the firestorm of allegations to come. We set out to organise the funeral knowing that he was well respected by many, many thousands of people.
We knew that the funeral was going to grow because so many people wanted to be a part of the celebration of his life.
We felt so honoured that so many wanted to remember him and mark his passing.
As time passed, the grieving process enabled us to come to terms with his death.
By the time summer arrived we were getting ready for the auction of his possessions so that, as he requested in his will, the money could go to his charities. It was a great success.
We became aware of the programme that was being made with allegations of a darker side to him that we knew nothing about.
I watched the programme in horror and could not believe that these allegations were about our uncle. This wasn’t the man we knew and loved.
Like everyone else we asked the question, Why now? We couldn’t find an answer.
The allegations kept coming and were beginning to overwhelm us. Media were chasing us asking for interviews as family members.
The allegations are very serious and we began to have doubts as to our own feeling towards our uncle.
How could the person we thought we knew and loved do such a thing?
Why would a man who raised so much money for charity, who gave so much of his own time and energy for others risk it all doing indecent criminal acts?
How could anyone live their life doing the ‘most good and most evil’ at the same time?
We became more aware of the outrage that many members of the public were feeling.
We began to think that his headstone, which we had only unveiled a couple of weeks earlier could become a target for people wishing to show their emotions.
The dignity of the cemetery, the people who are buried there and the relatives who tend the graves had to be respected.
We took the decision to remove and destroy the headstone so that it couldn’t become a focus for malicious people.
The decision was a difficult one to make but we knew it was the right one.
A vilification of his name, his achievements and everything he stood for followed.
People are moving as quickly as possible to disassociate themselves from him.
His charities, which he was so proud of, debated the prospect of removing his name from their title.
The trustees have since decided that this wasn’t enough and that the charities will have to be wound up and the monies given to other charities working in a similar field.
Records of all his efforts and the good work he had done, have been, or are in the process of being removed.
We recognise that even our own despair and sadness does not compare to that felt by the victims.
Our thoughts and our prayers are with those who have suffered from every kind of abuse over so many years and we offer our deepest sympathy in what must have been a terrible time for all of them.
We can understand their reluctance to say anything earlier and can appreciate the courage it has taken to speak out now.
Our hearts go out to them and we offer them our sympathy and understanding in their anguish.
Where will it all end? Who knows? The repercussions of this scandal are enormous.
We, as his closest family, have to endure further revelations on a daily basis.
Our feelings are in turmoil as we await the next turn of events.

That all sounds fair enough. This must have come as a terrible shock to those of saviles relatives who didn't know what he was like.
