Your comment that “We’ll just have to agree to disagree” on tonight’s programme regarding schools opening during the virus crisis, was not an acceptable comment by someone who is a news presenter and not someone who instructs the public on what should be our opinions.
I’m going to have to agree to disagree on this comment
You were great on Brownlow
Swallow or spit?
Dear Jackie!! We are regular watchers of CH 7 for years!! If you could hear me, when one of your work mates calls you “Jack”, instead of your first name, you would have to cover your ears!! It is an Australian very bad habit, to shorten names!!! I should know, my Name is Gunter and even I lived here for more than 54 years, I still get called different names, even from my “friends”!! Sorry, to bother you, but be certain, I never would shorten your name and tell your “Mates”, too!! Cheers Gunter
