Should I choose to reply (again) to somebody (who isn't you) asking them to desist from inviting me to lunch (again) in a firm (not angry) manor, then that is my prerogative.
Was worried about your well being. You seem troubled. Oh - the idea of a public message forum is that anyone can answer. What you seem to be after is a conversation. Maybe you should meet, maybe in private?? Seems to be what you are after!

lol that's exactly what I did.
See, pooley, we're social creatures. We're attuned to the tiniest little variations in the behaviour of others. I know a lot of it is lost in translation when we turn verbal face to face stuff into typed words on a screen, but still, we look beyond just the words, and see something of the intent.
So for example, when Geoffrey Prime suggests having a face to face discussion over a civilised meal, what I actually pick up from it is this:
"I am trying to score a point, and so I will try to make what sounds like a reasonable offer, in the sure knowledge that there is no chance in a million years that my 'adversary' will accept my offer"
So it doesn't come across as reasonable. It comes across as being snide, and somewhat cowardly.
Please note. I'm not saying Geoffrey Prime is either snide or cowardly, but that this is thge impression left by both his posts, and the context in which the posts are made.

yeah, OK. This is kind of using a sledge hammer to make a point, but anyone reading the thread will understand that those words, in a different context, irrespective of smiley face, could be taken at face value, but when read in order, they say something very different.
stating the bleeding obvious I suppose.
and I've already had a couple of pints, while watching Spain totally out-play Germany
