Jay

Has anyone heard from him recently?

 

Nope. I did wonder that yesterday funnily enough.

 

Not since this little gem a few weeks ago, no

 

I dont see that as anything bit a dig at him

 

Haven't seen him post anything since that?

 

So why is it "a gem"?

 

Not had owt back yet?

 

Well it's not very nice is it?

 

I’ll phone him

 

Saw him in town last week. Pissed as a rat. He was fine.

 

I'm going to tell youa something about Jay.

I've had the pleasure of meeting him, talking to him regularly. In fact, my oldest lad now 13, I pinched his name off here and named my son that.

When I had my marriage break up, he made sure to come and speak to me. Ask me I'm ok, and also damned made sure knew he was available if I needed it.

For the last few years I've also had the pleasure of him sat 2 seats away from me.

I cannot speak highly enough of him, and from the person I have got to know, does nothing but put the welfare of others before himself.

He maybe outspoken at times say things that some may ot agree with, but nobody can ever question his loyalty to the human species and care for quality for all.

That's all. I wont say owt else, because if I could have a world built with people like Jay, it would be a world that everyone would like

 

Yes we all let ourselves down badly at times, I can certainly identify with that. I'm sure in real life he's a great kid.

 

Jay is fine.

 

I bet he pissed himself laughing when you rang him

 

A couple of weeks earlier he had a rant at me over nothing. I had only corrected him about the Championship prize money. He went ballistic and started fabricating what had been said. No need for it at all.

Yes there is bit of a theme and it can be quite unpleasant. Shame really as it would appear that he is a decent kid.

 

Went ballistic ? On a text based message board? Did you feel threatened by the way someone expressed himself in words? That’s hardly ballistic is it?

 

He’s probably taken offence abart summert and stopped posting.
Many over the years have done the same.

This is something I just cannot understand.
If people focused on playing the ball instead of the player then we wouldn’t have so many people throwing the towel in.

I very very rarely look at the name of the person posting.
And when I do it’s only because I’ve met them.
Obviously there are exceptions - I do sometimes notice when people continue to use abuse.

Like I said - play the ball and not the player - and you’ll find that getting ‘monk on’ with folk becomes a rarity.

 

Obviously you're his mate, but you must admit that he does come across as a bit of a chop at times. Usually when he's had a beer.

Edit: obviously I'm glad he's ok like.
