    Are we all assuming the pool is filled with water? That may be a mistake ... and poor scientific practice.

    If I had a 50,000 litre pool, I would fill it with chicken curry.

    A 50,000 litre pool of liquid magma would take around -0.0001 seconds to heat up.

    Build a wood burning stove attach copper piping and use a submersible pump to pump it through it.

    Using expensive electricity to heat a pool? Pshaw. The sun can do it - look at this.

    i put in the identical solar heating systemto that last summer

    it included huge panels and a solar cover that held in the heat

    it was pointless in this country

    nice for spain or someplace like that

    This is AH, what do you expect.

    Go to P.I. if you want sympathy.

    And here is the heat that my post alluded to.
    It was a play on The Sun's report on Wednesday following the disaster.
    Calm down.

    Last time I checked being in AH or any other forum did not mean decency had to be forgotten. Your type may have been brought up in a different manner though.

    Decency? Seriously, decency in AH....


    My type?

    Care to explain?

    Oh the old Harry Enfield "calm down"

    You are quite the comedian.


    If Hillsborough is the kind of thing you need to make a play on, then it just shows you up for the type you are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,606 ✭✭✭Jumpy


    Heeeey, calm down you guys. Dont hold grudges.

    Be like the South Efricans. They never hold grudges. To them a grudge is jest a place to pork their cor.

    Ah fair enough decency is something you can switch off when it suits you. Some of us try to hold ourselves to some kind of standard with things, but don't worry about it, your kind doesn't get hung up on things like that.

    Not the type that busts in with his dukes up stating "Would ****ing love to see you try to make that comment standing in front of me".

    Next you'll be drawing a line in the sand and daring folks to step over it.

    Take it handy, would ya.

    You still haven't defined my 'type'.

    I had a friend who committed suicide with a rope. I dont appreciate your mention of being hung.

    Does that put things into perspective that you are both being ****ing stupid?

    People arent going to watch every little thing they say just in case someone else gets offended. Now can we please return to talking about your ma?

    My best friend did the exact same thing, so I also take offence to that, but please, push past that and carry on.

    I won't take it handy. If you were in a room with me or anyone else with a scouse accent you would not have made that comment. You might have thought it, but you would have kept your mouth shut.

    But because you are online you can hide your yellow streak and throw out your little comment.

    I would wager at least one or two of the scouse in the room would have a sense of humour.

    I'm a coward now as well....

    It is not a case of watching every little thing.

    It was a pointed comment about a specific event where 96 people died, and the poster went on to comment on getting the reaction that he wanted/expected from his original post.

    Big difference between using something like that on purpose to provoke a response and saying by accident.

    I see you're ignoring me, nice one buddy, digging yourself a bigger hole then.

    Well you should take a trip to Liverpool someday and see how many people have a laugh at your Hillsborough joke. I would wager none would laugh along with you.

    Now please can everyone shut up. I dont have enough wildly off topic posts to insert randomly forever.

    All you are trying to do is stir. Seems to be your thing.
