    There's not much to get, apart from a scared old man cowering at home in his basement ;)

    I know, that's the funny part. You even admit you don't get it!

    Australia gets it. Other Britons get it. But not MattUK :D

    Did you want to start with page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6? I presume you've been following along, as you've participated.

    Surely you are not suggesting that you've been arguing all along over something you admit you don't get? Is that really what you want people to think?

    No, I 'get it' I just don't 'get' what you 'think' you're talking about.

    This really is very simple.....

    You claim you don't want to travel to Thailand as you'll lose your head.

    I ask for evidence of any Tourist ever having being decapitated in Thailand.

    You can't provide any.

    Simple :)

    Actually, that one came way later (not that I ever mentioned anything about tourist beheadings anyway) after I sourced a small sampling (what, 7-10 links) of recent beheadings in Thailand to support my original comment. Somehow, you thought *those* beheadings didn't count, then complaining when additional terrorist links including bombings and the killing of one of your own countrymen (a tourist) were provided.

    No, you've fully demonstrated that you don't get it. Australia gets it. Other countries get it. Other tourists get it. Other Britons get it. But MattUK doesn't get it.

    Thanks for proving my point. You made it so simple.

    I try to keep it simple for you ;)

    I'm just disappointed that you give in to terrorsists like this. I'd have expected better from you ;)

    I know, and I try to keep it simple for you too. That's why I was so disappointed that you just couldn't get it...again.

    Perhaps another time ;)

    i don't understand how a thread about what country is most loved can turn into a slagging debate between two members about being beheaded

    I'm not worried about the names you wish to throw out. My skin is as thick as your head ;)

    I held a number of jobs, but officially I was "Field Artillery."

    I haven't a clue, he deliberately tries to be obtuse when he loses track of the discussion. I don't hold it against him, It just scares me that it'll happen to me when I get to his age
