hard working person (as my friends & family will confirm)and will continue to express my opinions even if they dont match other peoples. We all have the right to freedom of speech and that also includes fans of people like Helen. I guess there are just times that it is best to agree to disagree.
Anyway I wish Robocop everyone else well, and look forward to CBB.

Yes we do all have a right to express our opinions here, however much we disagree; that's part of the fun of the forum. It's a shame you felt the need to step out of the forum for 2 days due to your becoming upset during the ongoing Helen debate.

I was upset too when you sarchastically suggested i was unfit to do care work, when all i was doing was highlighting how horrible it was to see so many people insulting Helen this year (even before she entered the house), just as i hated to see Helen being the aggressor in LAST year's series! I was being objective about Helen and only trying to be fair.

But rather than shy away from the forum and from your unpleasant and rather high-handed suggestions about me being unfit for care work, i opted instead to express my feeling back to you in your own manner by saying that if a colleague of mine had displayed favouritism/double standards like you had towards Helen, then i would look to have them sacked.

There was no personal slur or suggestion that you should actually be sacked (you're right i don't know you and i'm sure you are a lovely person!). All i did was merely throw back the verbal 'tennis ball' to you, the one that you had just thrown at me!

If you hadn't made the sarchastic comment about me being unfit for care work, then i would have nothing to throw back at you. Do you see? Surely you cannot expect forum members to be silent when you make those type of comments about them first? If getting a response upsets you then i can only advise you not to make the first strike yourself.

However, i too wish you well. I hope you enjoy the new CBB series and yet more lively debates on the forum!

Love and peace to you and yours.

ps - the name's roboDOG not roboCOP
