First this is only meant for the three Ace hols i meet this weekend. Now we have been going here for 10 years now its a private forest set by a large lake and the old boy that owns it is a really nice man he always walks down with his dogs of an evening and sits and has a beer and a talks with us. Now we have lost it because Saturday night three German motorhomes came in, when we got back from fishing we could see there was going to be a problem because they where picking all the wood they could find to have a fire now its been 26deg the last few days and very little rain and they are sitting in the middle of a pine forest so my friend went over and said that the fire was not a good idea but they still lit it when the owner came down and told them to put it out they were rude to him so he called the police and they moved us all off now the owner has locked the gate so no one can get in.

This poor guy kespian just put a simple post to vent his annoyance that a nice spot that he has gone to for 10 years has been taken away because of the stupidity of other motorhomers whatever their nationality the poor guy was just getting it out of his system no different to when some of you guys went off on one over Scarborough council and now Whiby and there intolerance to motorhomes. He wasn't being racist he was nearly stating their nationality the same way that you guys said about bloody councillors. Wow and look at the escalation its bonkers so put your swords away take a deep breath and have a bit of simpathy for the guy allow him to have a rant his 10 year love affair with this place has been ruined yes by a few Germans but he would have said the same had they been British, Russian Irish Italian or even bloody aliens it was about the place not the nationality. RANT OVER.

I agree with all that, so it is a pity that others have used the thread to yet again talk nonsense about the difference between "ex-pats" and "migrants" or to protest too much about not being racist.
 
Lets get this right.... the title of the thread " Bloody Germans "..it wasnt ..some idiot...or bloody motorhomers ...unthinking idiots ,but having a pop at germans. So of course it is going to stir up trouble.

More often than not, you and I are in agreement on most things but I think we need not to view every throwaway comment as racism. One of the funniest comedy shows ever on television was the Fawlty Towers "Don't mention the War" episode and apparently it also went down very well in Germany. Also, if you have ever heard the extremely good German comedian Henning Wehn, he and David Mitchell do a comedy routine that takes a similar theme and is very funny. I have read many of kenspains posts over the years and I believe he is one of the more thoughtful posters on here, so I think you may have picked on the wrong man.
 
bad title

Yes your probably right not the best title but the guy was annoyed have you never blurted something out in anger that can be twisted to mean something more serious my son has been dating german student for the last 5 years and she lived with us for a while and she used to regularly say you bloody English when she read something daft its a figure of speech granted not a good one but lighten up please.
Usually if you are talking to someone you can here the inflections or tone in their voice that we use to interpret the meaning of what is being said you can say the same two words Bloody Germans 10 times and depending on your tone it means something completely different each time you say it.

I wasnt picking on anybody and have not mentioned racism in this thread ( i dont think:D.)..merely stating a fact that the title caused a stir.....borne out by the 12 pages of rants.
And yes have seen henning on 8 out of 10 does countdown....very very funny

Maybe "picking on" wasn't a good choice of words but in view of Ken's obvious frustration I think we can allow him a thread title that might be a little over the top, don't you?
 
First I would just like to say sorry to those I have upset with this thread, But I will stand by it, It don,t matter what country you come form or go to you are not rude to the locals of that land, As i will be moving on in June for those that i have upset that this will be my last post, Good luck to you all and safe travels :wave:
Now lets put this to bed please.
 
This is getting silly

A simple post has grown out of all proportion.
I suggest no racism was implied.. but what a response
Calm down
Calm down
 
Would everyone be a lot happier if instead of the owners the 3 motorhomes were named and described or is that being motorhomist? Sounds like the owners of said vans just had no idea how to behave either in the countryside or with others. They'll be the losers in the end
 
Germans

Whilst I understand the frustrations that this has caused, blaming just Germans for this is nothing more tham blatant racism, and, I would suggest, against the rules of this forum.

Please refrain from making racist comments, Thanks.

What a pompous person you are, it's because of people like you that our society is fragmenting, racist my backside, for god's sake get a life.
 
Ken you did nothing wrong, you were just like the majority of us, ignore the political zombies who wanted to burn you at the racial stake. Please do not change, you are normal and morally correct and a good person. Carry on good fellow
