This is a thread entitled Love Island Is Better, so it stands to reason that we are probably going to prefer Love Island to this series of Big Brother. We've even given valid reasons for our preference, sighting social and political angles among many others. Adam Rickett is a tangent, true, but one that is on-topic in relation to our viewpoints.
Just as we are entitled to ours, of course, you are entitled to yours; we wish to converse with you, but if 7" Britney Spears records are more your bag, then that's okay.
When Adam Rickett turns up, I bet it'll be Breathe Aagin in your CD Player instead though :spin2:

I was not being sarcastic.

The language I used was not intended to be nasty, snide or, indeed, scornful. You made a comment, I responded. Your own posts have been rather anti those of us who prefer Love Island anyway, and clearly intended to do just that which you have accussed us of doing, which is pot calling the kettle black, is it not?
I am sorry if I offended you in any way, I honestly assure you it was not my intention. The Britney Spears/Breathe Again comment was intended as a joke, hence the smiley, and not an excuse for a free-for-all Edwin bash.
I guess this is me trying to hold out an olive branch to you. I love Love Island and Adam Rickett, and you do not. Shall we just leave it at that? :wavey:

This definition is accurate in its content, but misplaced within the context of the discussion at hand.

OMG you people have me in stitches!!...:laugh: Just reading your conversation has me laughing.

Anyway, to iguanaboy, no probs - I'm always nice to newbies! :thumbs:

And I think it's cool that you like Adam Rickett! I used to like him too..then he released a single and disappeared for a while :conf: hehe so I haven't heard much from him since then.

Adam has been away diligently perusing his nacent political career.

He went back to acting for a while, and has recently tried to launch himself as a serious, hard-nosed politician, with largely positive results. Certainly, I know a lot of people my age are rooting for him.

Riight..

Well er, good luck to him then! :thumbs:

I think it'd be cool if he went into the BB house anyway.

Who knows, if it happens it may replace Love Island's special cubby hole in my heart.

iguanaboy 14-07-2006 01:14 PM

Edwin 14-07-2006 01:15 PM

A white flag; a token of peace; an attempt to stop the sniping and start the loving. Something that has apparently been shunned.

Edwin 14-07-2006 01:20 PM

oh okay i accept it, there was never an argument anyway, i'm like that with everyone :spin2:

iguanaboy 14-07-2006 01:21 PM

:hello: Hurrah! Nothing like a nice, happy ending :bouncy:

Reg_Eneration 14-07-2006 01:27 PM

But I also think your comments are good and well-thought out too! :spin2:

iguanaboy 14-07-2006 01:31 PM

I'm so glad that this thread has settled down now: just goes to show that, with a little TLC, happiness will prevail.
