Is it only me,or do others find the Munger/Monger/Minger stories so boring and pathetic?

When I heard NN had taken his wife/partner/daughter/grand-daughter....not sure of the relationship,to Thailand,thank God/Allah the last of them.

But NN it cannot be your wife,you would not have time or energy to invent such characters.

Let's hope the M's open a hairdressers,then can be thrown out this lovely country

Top tip. If you ain't pretty/handsome - don't send your photo.



Mike..... No it is just you (and DC) apparently that find the Monger stories so boring and pathetic?

Yes it's made up,

No, it's not malicious or harmful, but good fun. Just have a laugh at "their adventures". Many a story has been written on the back of a myth.





"Let's hope the M's open a hairdressers,then can be thrown out this lovely country".



It's the "lovely country" bit I cannot get my head around.

Did you miss out the words..... "Corrupt and spoilt by greed/racist and cruel to animals" lovely Country?

Sorry to my Guido backgammon buddies, but I must say that I do love the Monger tales. Just sorry, NN, that they got here too late for Elvis at Al Shaheen's. I just know how you love the 'curry singers'. Fortunately, all was not lost as I was 'In loco Mrs Monger', but although I tried my best, possibly did not eat quite as much as her. Hope things are going well in Thailand. It is getting a bit nippy here. You have been decidedly quiet on Facebook. I was looking forward to more details of your ongoing advantures.

Loose definition of a hard wood is that if the tree is deciduous, drops its leaves, then it is a hard wood.

And there is not too much squabbling going on and its not childish and if it was I would tell me mum.

And I like NN so there.

Not everyone's sense of humour is the same, that's what makes life interesting, what a boring old place it would be if we all agreed.....but as i said, there really is no need to get spiteful!!

i would like to say people that likes these sort of thing needs to go out and enjoy life a bit more instead of going on this forum and reading lot of rubbish like what the mongers doing who cares i say why doesnt anyone come up of a solution about cyprus what can we do to improve the country come one guys theres more important things than mongers ect.

Message 60. I think we've all got the message that you have no time for NN. Fine. But, that being the case, you spend a hell of a lot of time on here slagging him off - why do you waste your time (as apparently, all the rest of us who like him do) by writing about him?



With regard to (sic) "solving the Cyprus problem", I've just gone through your recent posts and I don't see anything you have posted to be remotely positive in this regard.



I don't know why you don't like him (John), nor do I care, but I do think you are a very unpleasant individual (who, incidentally, could do worse than occupy your time by attending some English Language classes).

Jeannie,I will reply to you,whilst John checks on his Grammar.

NN offers nothing to this forum.And the "Mongers"are figments of his imagination.Yes he should write to Viz

and sell them the copywrite.

MOST of us want informative posts,information on matters in TRNC.

The postings of a man living in Thailand,of a kebab eating fat bird do nothing,but take valuable space.

The current negotiations on the future of NC are so important.

The ramblings of a man in Thailand are irrevalent

How many of your 798 posts were helpful to the people of this forum?? most of them are devoted to whinging on about yer love life or dengrating women!



The Mongers are a bit of light hearted humour which a lot of us thoroughly enjoy!



The titles & the posters name is clearly shown so anyone who finds them offensive doesn't need to read them.



At least NN seems to be sober when he posts and doesn't need to apologise the next day like some people!
