I'm not publishin...Dear "Shitehawk",<br /><br />I'm not publishing your comment.<br /><br />I'm sorry that you're so lonely you have to spend your Sunday afternoon posting abusive comments to people you obviously don't like. (Why not tell people you do like how much you enjoy their work instead?) But I'm happy to quote from your comment that you feel there's "Nowt like blowing your own trumpet is there ?" and that there's nothing particularly "interesting" in my post.<br /><br />That's your opinion, and its a valid one. It's always difficult knowing how to talk about something like this and it's quite tricky to do without sounding like an arse. I think I have readers who would be interested and even happy to know about my success, but our culture looks down on people who are immodest. It's a fine balance. With that in mind, I'd urge you to actually go back and read the post, because if you did, you'd see that the whole thing is thanking and bigging up other people rather than talking about myself.<br /><br />Bur the reason I'm not just publishing your comment is not because of what you said about me. It's because of your retrograde, neanderthal, twattish comments about other people in the picture who are not part of whatever quarrel you have with me. Believe me, by censoring your comments, I'm protecting you as much as them, because if I'd published it, you would have looked like a total fucking dickhead.<br /><br />If you're the total fucking dickhead I think you are, I just want you to know that at the last event we were both at, people (not me) were worried and concerned about you, about your mental health. If you're a completely different dickhead, I apologise for the confusion and hope you find something better to do with your time real soon.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03011702209832734676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-56639285430223102016-12-04T13:49:40.950+00:002016-12-04T13:49:40.950+00:00Congrats fella, but if you bought that suit for th...Congrats fella, but if you bought that suit for the event, why didn't you buy one that fitted you?Cooking Lagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02830924433230427226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-44978709730748682542016-12-04T11:39:08.827+00:002016-12-04T11:39:08.827+00:00Well done Pete.
