Good one Massifheed. I think I was outed at the start. The trial seems done.
I was hoping to have a go on the Newbury Eastern Bypass.
Handy for Benyon Gravel pits.

Seems the idea was a bit too much.Especially for me as I always agree with the other point of view.

NORTHENDER has a .jpeg of a sign by a barbed wire fence.
NO SITTING ON THE FENCE. I have often been on the receiving end of the snap.
Keeps me in my place.

I found it difficult too - I was Jason. Andy Capp, Strafin, On the Edge, Jayjay, and Nothing Much all took part, though if they want to say who they were it's up to them. I had to argue for banning dogs from the parks, something I am very much opposed to, and it's difficult, more difficult than I expected. For me it was an interesting experience, so thanks to those who took part.

I think it is difficult if you don't have information at hand. I had to think of why we should keep the mayor, and I couldn't think of any reason other than for sentimental reasons.

This will sound pious, but I am genuinely open-minded about many things and am happy to change my mind. I don't believe there is ever only one way, or only ever one right way. I just happen to see lots of holes in other's arguments.

I was Achilles! I enjoyed trying to think of arguments for something I don't believe in, it made me think in a different way, and enabled me to balance my own thoughts a bit.
