General Chat

Tec just going back to the former subject, as I said this particular young lady changed agents.

The new agent is well known for creating 'situations' which then get bad press or notoriety.

i don't think that one of his contracted people have ever gone on to achieve anything but meanwhile he is ripping them off for his commission.

They all deserve each other

Allan

Yep - they do deserve each other, but I suppose it sells newspapers and tatty magazines to the kind of people that like to read that sort of tripe.

Tec

If these people have some talent and are famous for that, then fair enough, but the ones is the magazines seem to have no talent at all.they are only famous for being famous, if that makes sense.

I am off now, I will try and look in in the morning, but I won't be around tomorrow night because my son and his girlfriend will be here.

Hi Linda

That was certainly the case in this instance.

The young lady claimed that she wasn't aware that the footballer was married. This particular guy is well known in Australia and also has a certain amount of notoriety for his antics after consuming alcohol, so she could have easily found out, although now several people have come forward to say that they told her he was married!

Allan

Bye Linda

Allan

Goodnight Linda,
Enjoy your time with your family tomorrow,
sleep well,
Tec.

Allan,
We've just had a headline" scandal" involving a top footballer, and another footballer's wife/girlfriend.
What should have been discreetly sorted out between those involved, instead raged on in the press for weeks, resulting in one footballer losing the Captain of the English team job.

I'm sure most people are only interested in their sports ability, not their private lives.

Tec.

Tec that story also made it over to Australia!

One thing I like about these boards is that very often you find out things before they hit the headlines over here

I must just be an old gossip

Allan

No Allan........Rather an interested observer of humanity,
far more respectable than an old gossip lol :))

Tec

I must remember that one Tec!

I wonder where everyone is today!

There are not many posting

Allan

I think they've all run off somewhere without us. Sue hasn't appeared yet, Berona popped in, then went. Very mysterious.

Maybe more will appear in Aussie day time.

Tec

Tec, there's usually a flurry of activity in the early evening east aussie time, but with the time difference between east and west I am usually busy doing something else!

Allan

It is difficult with us all living in different time zones - because we all have to go about our business at various times of our day. But all in all it seems to work out quite well between us, everything considered.

Oh was on the phone to relatives in Hong Kong today, they are 8 hours ahead of us at the moment, much the same as you I think.

Tec

I'm here. I've been back and forth and answering emails. I have a friend in England who wants to be my 'friend' on Facebook - but we can't find each other! After carefully checking the spelling, etc. I got my daughter to look for my friend, but again, she could only see what I could see. We seem to be getting a different list of people from that which they are getting in England.
Anyone else had this problem?
We are now trying other names where we exist as 'friends' to see if we can get to each other that way.

Berona I don't have such problems because I'm not on Facebook, it seems very complicated to me - and I'm a simple person as you know.

Tec

Sorry Berona, I can't help

Like Tec I don't have facebook.

Why not ask on the Chat Board, plenty of people seem to have facebook and may be able to help

Allan

And the cricketer in question - the purchaser of the $200,000 ring is back here playing. He has been supplied with a psychologist to help him with his problems. They have had banners out for him at the last match (whilst he had gone back to see her) saying Clarksey where the bl**dy hell are ya?

NZd ers will take every opportunity to give him gyp - they like a good controversy.

Persey and how are we all today?

Berona have you keyed in her e-mail address in facebook - I know when I went on facebook all sorts of people came out of the woodwork that I have had past correspondence with. I was saying no to as many as I was saying yes to.
I couldn't find one friend but she keyed in my address and she got hold of me okay - so maybe that works.

Persey

Good morning Persey

Allan
