This week the Streetzuup bloggers received a blog comment from the esteemed Jim (Blue) Barron, who has been spotted buzzing over the blogosphere in his funny little Focker DR1. Previously he has bombed this website, hitting his target but failing to do any damage. This time he missed by a mile.
I have no Idea why this comment was aimed at me, he must think that I am behind the mysterious bloggers who post on that site and expose the good, bad and just plain silly world of politics in Street.
Here is the comment in full:
Dear me,
You do have a vivid imagination Mr. Boswell. Surely you must accept the local elections have replaced the Street LibDems on MDC with three conservatives and one independent
Obviously your time in the central Somerset area has some affect on your script, but ask any Streetonian and they will tell you that the two of them have been at it for years, probably since their schooldays. It is almost a tradition in this part of the world.
I would in your shoes be very careful how you put your comments reference to these two people, both are very much held in esteem in Street village.
Your mate Ollie from the Central Somerset Gazette is rather tired of all the bile coming from both Kennedy and yourself which is self defeating and I think the polls have been extremely emphatic about that. Neither of you have much to shout about, although it has not stopped either of you bleating about the reasons of why you have failed. I do not think that either of you have a clue why this has happened, and you know it really has, so for goodness get a life.
So Mr. Boswell I suggest that you wipe the slate clean and start afresh, you have created an excellent web site, why not communicate in a more constructive and positive way, rather than slating off people who basically do not agree with your present political views.
Jim Barron.

The Streetzuup bloggers decided to write a new post about the comment but chose not to post it because he uses my name.
This caused a further comment:
Shame I have upset you, it would appear that it does not take much to do that. You really must learn from your past errors during the election campaign.Your personal attacks on anybody that were not supporters of the LibDems resulted in your low count at the ballot box. So be man enough and accept it, and stop your whinging.

Jim, if you are reading this, and I can only assume that you are given your previous comments here. I do not post to Streetzuup. I have never posted there and I never will. I know who the bloggers are, but no I’m not telling you or anyone who they are. They are not me, I’m not one of them.
I created the website for them, they came to me and asked because I created the theme design for Standup4Shepton (another website I have never posted on, although I have submitted one story to them) and they didn’t know the first thing about websites or blogging. I was glad to help. I still provide administration for them, cleaning up when they make a mess and doing security updates etc. I have no other involvement in the site. I have said this a couple of times now on GWell, I assumed that by now everyone knew that I’m not blogging there.
I always put my name to every post I write, and I only write here.
I’m happy to answer your comments if they are actually aimed at me, it seems in this case they are but they aren’t. If you want to say something to me, feel free to either comment on a blog that I’ll actually see the comment on (ie this one) or say it to my face.
