    ..you have posted in two separate threads...
    re WOY!!

    Most handicapped people are quite capable of defending themselves and give as good as they get. I am actually offended that you feel the need to rush to their aid for what you perceive to be offensive. That is the problem with PC today. People like you who have no connection with certain groups find offence where there is none intended and stick their noses in. Why do you feel the need to rush to their defence unless subconsciously you feel that they are incapable of defending themselves.

    Besides, many physically handicapped people make fun of their own peer groups and mock themselves.... I used to teach people with physical disabilities to drive when the push was on to get rid of the blue invacars and get them into motability funded cars. Many of my pupils referred to the invacars as "13amp plugs" due to the shape and 3 wheel configuration.

    That was pretty harmless but some also referred to them in a way that would now be a absolute no-no for PC brigade. They called them 'spazz-chariots'!!

    Finally I for years had problems pronouncing my 'r's not quite as bas as Hodgson but never thought much about it, nor bothered if anyone made a joke of it (not that many ever did). Get off your high horse - I don't need you rushing to my defence.

    I think you fancy me. I'm not available, accept it and move on.

    Didn't realise Roy was on here able to defend himself. Which moniker does he use? I fancy giving him a piece of my mind about last night's team selection.

    Thanks, that's pretty much what I was going to post but probably with more unnecessary words.
