  shortly before i left the "troof" a co had given a talk during his visit.

  at the time there was a scandal going on in the congregation where 2 couples basically swapped spouses with each other.

  it was quite the scandal.

  "snugglebunny6 days ago6 days ago

  I think it was DO Turnbull from the UK who was df'd for something like that and given a 10 year sentence."

  the rumour mill went into overdive about that...such as " knorr came over to the UK to d/f Doug Turnbull personally!!

  but according to Bevan Vigo ( London HQ now )---he was our CO back then----Doug was by then just a publisher in the Tamworth congregation at the time.

  What is behind your choice of forum user name?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  2. friends

  just curious how we all think.. what prompted or influenced your choice of username for this forum?.

  there are some really amazing names, and it would be great to hear the stories behind them.... mine was nothing fancy.

  i just felt "stuck in a rut too" along with so many others.

  A First for Mrs Phizzy !

  by Phizzy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  mrs phizzy voted for the first time today !

  we have been out for nearly a decade now, but this is the first time mrs phizzy has been persuaded to vote.. she was always afraid that jw's would see her, and then df her for it, i explained (again, we have been over this before) that they would not do so, and my son had a word in her ear too, which did the trick.. she came out of the polling station and said to me "i voted for someone called teresa may, who is she ?".

  trying to wind me up, but i knew the wicked witch of westminster was not on our ballot sheet.

  i havent voted for years--simply because where i live is true blue tory--whereas i'm a born-in labour oik---so no point.

  but today--i voted. a protest tactical vote. still a waste of time--but at least i can justify saying i told you so in months to come.
