Thank you Sir Peter Maxwell

hehe...for introducing me to JU

Published on June 7, 2004 By Sally jacobs In Blogging

I met Peter Maxwell probably around christmas time, and I was the same as most people, when faced with the great one himself, I didn't really know how to take him, and in a state of disbelief I just chose to ignore him. I did finally learn that everything he said was the truth, and he is a man of honour, once you reach this conclusion and believe me at some point everyone does, getting on with him is a whole lot easier! So during this time Petey joined JU and as far as I know, he became pretty popular relatively quickly, due to his out spoken, honest manner. He was either loved or hated, depending on how you took him. Obviously now he is just totally loved, hehe, at least by those that count! He told us alot about his blog and he was very enthusiastic about the website. I came on now and again to see what was happening in the world of Maxwell, but didn't really pay much attention to the rest of the site.

Then Petey started his love song stage ( a stage I personally miss!) and at that time not only did he amaze everyone with his excellent singing voice but he dedicated a love song to me (awww!). A Wet Wet, classic, Love is all around! Now as the song was dedicated to me I felt it only fair that I leave a comment for Petey, thanking him for this thoughtful declaration of love, even if it was just because he wanted to mount me! The first comment, and the first pull to JU!

A few days later I checked back and there was a few more comments between Dan and Petey mostly, and as the topic was me (kind of) I decided I should put my opinions forward. Petey started to encourage me to start a blog of my own, now at first I wasn't really in to the idea. i didn't think I'd have anything to write about, and from what I've seen there are some fabulous writers on the site, so why would anyone want to read anything I write? So even though Petey kept encouraging me I declined his offer. I still kept leaving comments on this article though, and I started reading other peoples blogs and Dan also encouraged me to join, so with a little persuasion, I decided what the heck, after seeking approval off Kermit of course, I'll start a blog and see what happens, if I'm bad, I'm bad. So I started this lovely blog. Now at first I thought the site was quite clicky, everyone knew each other and had formed friendships. So it was quite daunting (is that the right word?) but everyone (most people) were so friendly and it's nice to have feedback on what you write. I like reading about other peoples lives and what they get up to. I even enjoy some healthy debates. So it was all good fun. When I joined it was about the same time as the, ' What I think of you all', articles, which i didn't really understand, but they were insightful to see how people were percieved on the site. I decided to keep a low profile and that's what I did. I read a few blogs and commented and slowly but surely I've met some really nice people! People I would never normally meet, and it's nice to learn about them and how they live, plus there is just some truely fantastic writers here.

Kermit thinks I'm really sad for liking this site. He wonders what people find interesting about reading an article about a complete strangers life, and when it comes to my life i wonder the same thing. People can't possibly find me interesting. As sad as he thinks it is, he is a regular reader of my blog, and I think he quite likes it, because he gets to know things he normally might not get to know. Hmm....like I think he is absolutely adorable, and even though i'm annoyed with him I think he's the shit. That I'm going to miss him like crazy when he goes, and it makes my heart ache just thinking about it. I'm so not looking forward to tomorrow, it just sucks

. Am I going on? I feel like I am! Who am I going to talk to though, who's going to make me smile, who am I going to bully, who am I going to be gay with. I really will miss my Kermit, love you.

Anyway off topic, this is a thank you to the great Petey for introducing me to JU, and just for you Petey, *cough* this site would cease to exist if it wasn't for the great one himself, Sir Peter maxwell, hehe! I'm also glad to know some really lovely people, without them JU would be nothing. Yes I know, I'm a good girl

*Please take this article as you would take Peter Maxwell*

Even if u were dead Sir Peter, you'd probably rise from the dead later anyway, much like Jesus.

The truth at last! This quote is a true classic~I am glad to see that Sally, Muggaz, Dyl and I are not the only brave and loyal friends of the great Sir Peter Maxwell! Onward and upward old chap!

P.S. Jolly good show Scarlett!

Good show.

LW, I understand your disliking for Sir Peter, and that's your right. I don't understand how you are drawn to threads containing his name especially if you dislike him. Well I do, but why comment when it's obviously something that will make you want to vomit. I honestly just don't see the point, sorry.

Very interesting and frank article; however with reference to

, you are, dear child, utterly brainwashed by SPM's histrionics.

Sorry sally, if you were just looking for agreements, insightfuls, additional praise for petey and "attagirls" you should have made that clear

No LW that is not what I was looking for at all. But I wasn't looking for people to have a dig at Peter on this thread. That wasn't what this thread was about, and not what I wanted.

I rarely read your blogs simply due to your association with him, (real or cyber, matters little to me) but i must admit the title made me curious enough to look.

That's upto you LW. I don't have a problem with you, and I generally keep out of the arguments that spring up between certain members of JU. If you don't like me or my blog due to my association with certain people here, I'm sorry about that, but fair play.

Whilst we never read yours due to it's poor quality.

surely youre smart enough to know that any thread with his name in the title is just as likely to draw comments from detractors as well as sycophants, right?

I realise that, of course. It's only now though, a few weeks after this was written that detractors have commented, and I would hope people would have more respect really.

My apologies if i didnt change the way i normally "take" him simply because you happen to see some redeeming social value in his hate filled articles.

No need for apologies. We are allowed a difference of opinion. I just think if you've got nothing nice to say, on this occasion, say nothing at all.

Don't worry Sally... vomit can be induced by jealousy, LW doesn't have a legion of fans like the benevolant Sir Peter! She is used to scaring people away from JU with whatever it is she does, rather than Sir Peter bringing his legion of fans to this great community!

Jolly good show old chap!

BAM!!!

it just happened to be on top of the list when i awakened this morning. Petey himself reanimated it

So the fact that I said good show is an adequate reason for you to attempt reignite old arguments. Grow up you silly little woman!

You seem to be full of hate little whip, I wonder if you are unhappy in life and become aggressive on the Internet because you are insecure in reality?

If it wasn't for the fact that your husband is one of those disableds I would think you were suffering from domestic abuse.

oh, and....isnt it odd that your "castle" is the same one that was used in the movie "Remains of the Day

No it is not odd because your husband is wrong, maybe his disabled arm is hurting and it has clouded his judgement somewhat. He may be British be he is just as foolish as his wife it seems.

Remains of the day was actually filmed at Powderham Castle, let us compare pictures of Powderham and the Maxwell Estate to destroy your remaining credibility.

I look forward to a full written apology.

Oh Sir Peter - I don't know why you bother - Never explain yourself - your friends don't need it and your enemies won't beleive you anyway!!!
