Guest paul y Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 buy a copy of the revised savage garden by peter damato, perfect book for those starting out, although you will very quickly outgrow it and then you will be buying redfern books which you will also outgrow rather quickly, and then like me you will be trawling the internet looking for published papers, tracking down really obscure almost never printed titles that you can only find in some tiny bookshop in an even smaller village in a part of wales that time has literally forgot. hope that helps paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that means you'll be selling me your Redfern Nep Field Guides then Paul ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest paul y Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 lol if only mate, I don't sell or give away books, I am one of those old school blokes who actually likes books, I read every day, I absolutely thrive on the escapism and increasing my knowledge a little. there is more chance of me growing a ****** on my arm than selling you books. I will however text you a little tip I picked up years ago which will solve your issue wait for the beep beep and no you don't need to worry about the nsa, fbi, mi5, or Tesco clubcard finding out!! im not going there on the ice cream man though, I have said it before and I will say it again fear the whippy, fear it for it is coming for you! paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest paul y Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 why does this forum block the word ******? what is wrong with the word ******? it is the correct anatomical term I have not used it in any offensive way, how come I can write wenis but not ******? rich im not happy! I want to be able to use the word ******! I feel my freedom of speech is being abused, whilst im on the subject what other words are banned from here? id bet I could write loads of insulting religious comments without being auto asterixed.

SoLongFairWell Posted October 19, 2014 Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 I have no idea about the auto censoring but if I was to hazard a guess at the list of words you'd see this: **** ***** ******* *** **** 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
