Yes, some people have no concept of logic and that kind of thinking reminds me of Vinnie's thinking, and therefore reminds me of his one and only post here, as SuzieQ. Accusing us of abonding Vinnie, when he threw us out, with no explaination. What else were we to do? So funny. https://vvforums.com/...

Yes, the M&G burn is familiar.

Paid meet and greets aren't the best at all, though this seems to have ended up a little bit different, and there is surely more to the story.

It's that while Faysal surely can sing, he cannot sing up to the standard of Mark, and there would be sections...
