I'm not saying that you have to be ill to be on SN, but you would be doing better things if you were well, don't you think?

I really couldn't care less.

I just think reading that people may think I'm dead might make me think about dying. Slightly morbid. That's something I'm happy not to be thinking about.

The way I see it....is that a few regular posters here were concerned cos Les hadn't posted for a while and we were concerned for him.

Considering the general bad press received about the "Iinternet" and the **** that sometimes goes down on Twitter from time to time, I think this forum bucks the trend (well sometimes )

Seems strange that he hasn't replied about the letter sent to him... Am i the only one wondering whether he wrote those two posts in the other thread?

No. I thought his posting style was a bit different. But then again, either we develop a conspiracy theory, or just let the plot thicken/ fog thin itself. I'm on for the latter, meself.

At first I thought that myself. The first one was fine, but the second seemed not quite right. It was the wink after his name that was the most odd so I looked at a few of his earlier posts in December and there was a wink after his name in at least one of them so, as you say, I think we can can the conspiracy theories!

Not just the wink, even in the first post he highlights the goodness of the Panasonic LED TV. Talking TVs like this is not like Leslie. In his second post, he's too informal, and he calls Cameron a clown. Now I thought our Les loves Cameron, and is a Tory boy himself. I know that his love isn't unconditional, and he has criticised Camo on occasions, but calling him a clown! is taking matters a bit too far. IMO Les wouldn't do that.

I may be completely wrong, though. Although we all know that ID theft on internet can take place sometimes. Could be his cat typing if you think about it. But I'd rather not knock any conspiracy theory together tbh. Because if it turns out to be he himself, then he won't like that I thought he was a cat. It's not fair on real Leslie.

Check out the Daily Express weather and Schumacher accident threads.

I know, Joz, I thought I might attract his attention by bumping this. It seems odd that Les doesn't acknowledge a five page thread dedicated to him.

Absolutely fascinating, Joz. Now then, Turbohot (Swati) wrote this interpretation/analysis of Melencolia I by Dürer and I'm surprised it's escaped your attention. What do you make of it?

By the way, the man in question does sound (I mean, virtually) like himself on Schumacher accident thread.

I reckon he could be our Leslie, but he's switching from personality to personality for some strange reason. He wrote- "What a plonker!" on some thread. Now that is not really much like our usual Les, is it.

It's all very weird.

Swati my dear, Les uses that expression all the time. Do a post search on his username for the word plonker... 11 pages of results

Oh, right! In that case, he could be the usual suspect, but he's still not himself. If he were, he would have posted at least "Thanks for thinking about me, you plonkers!".

Anyway, we'll see.

I do know what you mean though, something is not quite right. I did think today he was his usual self, but his failure to engage this thread seems out of character.... even if he was embarrassed about it I would expect him to say that and just say Hi, all's well! Anyway it's up to him, he's here and posting and that's the main thing

He's probably so sick of all the 'plonkers' on here that all he sees is an empty thread as everyone is on his ignore list

He could be just shy, and doesn't like mass attention.

And with all these assumptions, we continue to discuss him; as if he's still out of our sight, and can't hear us. All virtually, I mean.

We really are prize plonkers, fair play.

Never been one of Les' fans as I think he contributes nothing of any substance whatsoever, just the same generic, sitting on the fence nonsense.

The fact that he ignored this thread when people went to the effort to even write him a letter, proves that he is a bit of a ****.

Some will flame me for saying it but so what.

Flame you? To be honest I am appalled at your comments, they are grossly unjustified.

Like a few others on this forum I have met Les and spent quite some time with him so I know just what an honest and upstanding man he is. To call him what you have is just ridiculous as you evidently know absolutely nothing about him or his past.

I am sure others who have met him will agree.
