Naomi - //jackthehat, Why 'abuse'? They disagree. That's not 'abuse'. //
jack did not say it was 'abuse' - her use of the word was as a verb, not a noun, surely someone who is so keen to advise us of her education as you are would know the difference?
Constantly leaping to his defence for no good reason makes him look like 'a right girl's blouse'.//
Rudeness aside, if jack chooses to defend me, or anyone else, that is her prerogative, and your interpretation of her action is just that - your interpretation, which is not the definitive rule, except in your mind.
// If he feels he needs defence, let him defend himself for goodness sake! He's quite capable! //
I am - but support from like-minded Ab'ers is always appreciated - and does not deserve further attack which is simply taking the thread off point - something you and I have done quite enough of today!
