The second part was my initial thought, I'd describe him as guilty by association, sure you couldn't get a feg paper between the lot of yousins.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

At one point today, i was convinced that Snipe was the first pope. That would have been a theological discussion worthy of this forum. One on which he would have had a robust opinion.

Hope you didn't find HWM et al guilty by association. :shock:

Despite his approaches and hanging around, we denied him entry. :whistle:

We did have some standards. :lol:

Is that HWM guy related to Garnerville Mike or Knocknagoney Mike? Are you telling me those face-painted mediawhores are non-members or merely associate members?

Ach, in fairness Mike isn't a bad fella as long as he can sustain bladder control. :shock:

He would indeed.

To be clear, by "pope" do you mean the actual Pope, - i.e. Head of the Coptic Orthodox Church, or do you mean the oft incorrectly used title of the Bishop of Rome, Vicar of Jesus Christ, Successor of the Prince of the Apostles, Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church, Primate of Italy, Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman Province, Sovereign of the State of Vatican City and Servant of the Servants of God ? :duck:

Knocknagoney Mike - that's him! :roll:

Him and his fellow mediawhores are neither. The 2BC deny anything to do with him, other than sharing a small part of this small planet with them. And that's not a Gerry A denial, that's a real one. :shock:

Well. I had thought they were one and the same in those days, although i imagine a lot of the formal titles have been added through the subsequent centuries.



Edit - I stand corrected, it seems the first to use the title pope was from the Alexandria line, which derives from Mark,; not Peter. Every day is a (Sunday) school day.

I think Snipe would be suitably impressed that this thread has veered considerably off topic by page 3. Probably "what he would have wanted"

From Baggy

I suppose damned few of us know when our time will come so in passing, my best wishes to all here who I have interacted with, I would struggle to name anyone whom I would have considered reprehensible or irredeemable ........I've one name in mind, and one only, who shall remain nameless

Wow! shy retiring Baggy declines to name his
Nemesis?!

We deserve to know! The great British public c deserve to know!

Snipe was a star; honest, insightful, polite,. A pleasure to be in the same club.

Spill the beans MUM, Snipe was not a member, Knocknagoney Mike & the Mediawhores were not members, was it just you & Grumps?
