You really aren't reading things properly are you??
Do you drink Neil?? I'll assume you do. Do I call you "stupid" for drinking Neil? Do I tell you that having a pint should be compared to throwing money down the drain?
My only quarrel is being called "stupid" when me going with the club is no different to you having a pint. (i.e. in that one of us is spending money on something the other would consider wasteful).
I am not asking you to come with the club, nor am I trying to convince you travelling with the club is a better option. I understand it is expensive, I understand there are cheaper ways to go. I (me, personally, this person sat here) enjoyed it last year, and I (me, personally, this person here again) would like to do it again next year. I'm not trying to convince you that you'll enjoy it, I'm not trying to say "my way is better than your way".
All I am asking you to do, is have a valid and legitimate reason for insulting people, and to respect my decision to travel with the club, just as I respect your decision to spend your money on beer.
(Which just out of interest, is money down the drain in a far more literal sense than travelling with the club).

When I buy a pint I get something placed before me that is now mine, I get a refreshing beverage, so imo that is not throwing my money away.
You have been served 2 pints.... One by Mick, your average pub landlord. The other is served by Gary Hetherington. Mick says thats £2.50 please. GH says thats £4 please. But because its GH that has served you it, you happily pay him with a buldge in your trousers.
I know what your saying and I suppose going with the club does indeed add a touch of class. But I'd much prefer to browse around and what I save buy more beer when I get there

Yet again. Completely and utterly missed the point. Of all the replies I was imagining you'd come back with, you miles from the mark on any of them.
I've decided this is the last I'm saying on the matter because you're clearly not intelligent enough to grasp it. You do realise that whilst other posters may not agree with my choice to travel with the club, they do understand the point I'm making so you're just making yourself look ridiculous by replying with irrelevant retorts??
If you'd like to continue arguing, just re-read my countless posts which already quite clearly explain everything and reply to yourself.
Edit
You edited the last bit on before I had chance to reply... so I shall forgive you seen as you've finally said you understand!

The/Your reasons for going with the Rhinos registered right away, I just never agreed to them as it personally doesn't appeal to me and by the sound of things I'm not the only one. Enjoy your trip all the same.

So when's the face painting?
BTW. Got the details of that 'direct' flight yet? Where is it direct to again?

Are you really and genuinely incapable of computing the comparison between you having every right to spend your wage on beer (which I QUITE RIGHTLY deem wasteful) without being called an stupid and me having every right to spend my wage on a holiday (which you QUITE RIGHTLY deem wasteful) without being called an stupid?
Does that really REALLY not go in?
Do you really not think that perhaps you are a bit out of line giving me such a hard time with eye rolls and "stupid" comments, and pretending I've sign my name to ridiculous comments just because you don't agree with my travel plans?
I genuinely feel very sorry for you if that is how you're living your sad little life.

Direct flight from Leeds to Perpigan details please.
Oh, you mean there aren't any? You mean it doesn't go to Perpignan after all.
This fantastic [iguffaw[/i offer is slowly decreasing in value. Which other bits have you made up?

| Whatever way you decide to travel its still much cheaper than paying for a flight and then being told that you weren't allowed to go, isn't it EotB ?

I'll assume you do a tour of the pubs first to find the cheapest drink possible. Otherwise it's the lazy ass option.

Irrelevant really. But if you want to get into a dead end, waste of time argument about the merits of penny pinching on your beer then I can do. Because it's about as relevant to me as RR's choice of holiday package is to you.

What is the purpose of your comments again?
But seen as your offering, go on then.
The last time I shopped around for an holiday I saved over 200 quid and it took me 10 mins to do that btw.

Well done you. Not sure why you think that interests me but well done all the same.
The cost savings are different, the principles are the same (although you'll have 1 or 2 holidays a year, I'll wager you have a few hundred beers a year). Why it's so important to you what somebody else spends on their holiday is beyond me. I saved a few hundred quid on a trip to Australia a few years back to watch the rugby, but I don't begrudge anyone who spends a few grand to go on an organised package tour to the World Cup and such like.

He can be forgiven for thinking it interests you seeing as you quoted him then commented on it. So if you aren't interested then there was no reason to quote him was there?

I've been saying that for days now but I'm afraid it's falling on deaf ears. Thanks for the support anyway!
If EotB is so adamant that I have to find the cheapest possible price for my holiday, then I'm sure exactly the same principles must be applied to ever other aspect of his life. He NEVER drinks any lager other than the stumpies from Netto, cos they're the cheapest you see. So when there's a cheaper option available, how much you like Carlsberg really doesn't come into it. It could be your most favouritest, yummiest, loveliest, drink in the whole wide world... but EotB lives his life by "Enjoyment/Personal Preference/Convenience/Time Saving is all irrelevant... if a cheaper option is even remotely possible you MUST do that".
You should see the way he longingly looks at other people's steaks in restaurants while he sits there with his chickenless pasta salad and free bread roll. Actually... he must never have been in a restaurant, because you see it's cheaper to go to Lidl and eat own-brand Spam from the tin. He loves the cheapest possibly option you see. That's his law. Still... if that's how he wants to live his life that's fine by me! Who am I to judge?? At least he's not a hypocrite.
