Sad that someone should leave.
Although probably in a minority, in saying, that I never really got it/him and the whole Doo Wah-worship thing. Still don't. |

You do realise you are posting on the Do Wah Diddy Tribute thread, don't you?
Obtuse or illiterate? |

By:
That's ok, Snoop.
But take a good hard look at yourself.  |

and this was for Facts
 not you, Snoop  You do realise you are posting on the Do Wah Diddy Tribute thread, don't you? Obtuse or illiterate? |

He was intelligent, funny and amusing...a natural gentleman judging by his posts...he had a gift for words and describing his world.

No you are not wrong Facts, I found that particular thread beyond the pale, and your contribution on it was acknowledged by me as correct, if you care to revisit it. I make no excuse for being sickened by someone posting (before the total body count was finished)the benefits of cheaper holidays etc, etc,as a result of holidaymakers being massacred on a beach.
A perfectly rational human response, if you want to cast up past threads, just remember others can do exactly the same as you. I have moved on why don't you?? |

By:
I'm definitely in the camp which believes that the forum is a much brighter place with the presence of all true English eccentrics and especially Do Wah.

Facts I would love the opportunity to help you out.....................................Which way did you come in.
 |
|
By:
Facts, I'll try being nicer if you'll try being more intelligent. Do we have a deal?
Now I must away in a few minutes, to be continued..............................  |

By:
I always enjoyed reading Do Wah's posts which had an air of Reeves & Mortimer surrealism about them (intended or not) and had me either laughing or scratching my head. Hope he returns.
I'm sure Facts could brighten up a room just by leaving it. |

By:
Facts appears to be as welcome as a fart in a lift.

By:
Poppy I do agree with you to a certain extent but every now and then he would come out with a comedy gem.

By:
I'm sure DoWah will be back. His mother was suffering ill health wasn't she? Hope they're ok.
btw as akabula hasn't posted it, here's the thread which may have given the impression that facts was leaving for good... . http://community.betfair.com/chit_chat/go/thread/view/94038/30398179/food-banks-any-thoughts?origpost_id=542589293&pg=7  |

I wasn't having a go at you. I was just pointing out that we each have our own standards and what we can and cannot tolerate. That was all. |

I hesitate. Nay I tremble at the thought of upsetting that most delicate of flowers but truth and justice must be sated:
I'm now incredibly bored - and can't be bothered to communicate civilly anymore with disingenuous people like you. So to keep it simple F u c k off Because I'm going to, for good. So carry on with your crap. Keep voting for Tory toffs or UKIP racists Reap what you sow A full on genuine seethe fest directed at one of the good guys. Me. At east it answers that delicate question which has tormented me when I can't sleep. Is facts fool or knave? Knave or fool? Both.  |

Was that from the Politics forum per chance ?

By:
Just when I'm leaning towards him being more Charlie Corroli he tries to assert that he is actually Machiavellian.

And the answer to that question is no it wasn't you scoundrel.

I enjoyed reading your posts Do Wah. Hope you will return one day.

By:
Hopefully he is just having a break

Could you let me have your address so I can post this white feather Facts?

This will get him back...not the first time he was AWOL...

Nothing, it's just that nobody likes you. Although I am in total agreement with Foxy. Facts 14 Jul 15 12:43 Who the fck asked you pal ? Aka I thought misery guts had you blocked. He must have unblocked you AGAIN, for the 4th time. |

He was intelligent, funny and amusing...a natural gentleman judging by his posts...he had a gift for words and describing his world. Great post that sums Do Wah up to a T. He always made me smile and lol on loads of occasions. I hope he comes back. |

I noticed that spelling. A man of his word.

By:
I'm going to search the Australian forum and try and find what I think was Do Wah's first thread there. It was the first time he and Star of The magi exchanged words
(Star of the Magi was once called All High for you older forumites). Two great characters. |

This is very sad, DO WAH DIDDY DIDDY DUM DIDDY DO another one on the missing list.
Several of his postings were pretty amusing even with the Caps lock. Some people are just naturally amusing and he was. Another one on here who suddenly went missing was Lady Penelope, some of her postings got more and more bizarre at times, like the Mad Granny in the attic - or maybe under the influence of the cooking sherry ! |

Very sad to read that DoWah has gone
Best wishes to you and your family, DoWah x Come back soon  |

"How does Paul Jones manage to remain looking so young ?"
Big difference between him and Mick Jagger and Richards ! Just slightly off topic, when Manfred Mann first recorded Do Wah Diddy Diddy they didn't like the song at all. And if you listen to their early LP they are basically a R & B band, and to suddenly get a song like this ! It was originally meant for a girl group after Da Doo Ron Ron was such a big hit and to keep with that type of song. Manfred Mann recorded it and changed their musical direction to be more pop and then had a load of hits. |
