the Britpack isn’t a network, just a hyper-elite band of superhumans

… Yes, and we are meer mortals and we must bow down…

9rules is less the destination for it. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!

I’d like to see photos of the bowling, bryan!

No, I’ll be there Bryan despite mounting pressure to attend 20x2. I’d much rather bowl than sit listening to more people talk!

Does that mean you won’t come to bowling? We’ll miss you over at 9rules, but I don’t want Team Avalonstar to lose you. ;(

I don’t really know where this ‘Britpack is a blog network’ came from - this isn’t the first time it’s been said to me.

To go on the record though, Paul and the 9rules team have never mentioned anything about it. Not an issue.

Very diplomatically done paul. I have to admit that I’m surprised you wern’t asked to leave ages ago, being part of the compeating digital content network that is the BritPack :-)

I guess Brit Pants is a clique more than a network but that?s just semantics to me.

Well specifically we’re a bunch of mates who like to arrange to meet up and get drunk together. As such we are no more of a clique and any group of pissed Brits you meeet down your local.

What is this? Someone talking about 9rules with maturity?

You’re a classy guy Mark. :-)

Jon,

Im a proud Brit and an even more proud Scot. so I understand the promotion of our country to the larger ones.

As for the lack of porn, what a shame. Who wouldn’t pay to see you stick your 1 into a girls 0. [/geek joke]

Very classy post, Mark. Its a shame to see others giving Scrivs and the 9 Rules guys crap for their decisions of late, especially people who aren’t even part of the network to begin with.
