No-one really knows what 666 means, but one theory is that it represents the satanic anti-trinity: seven was supposed to represent perfection, so it three times tries to achieve perfection, but each time falls short.

I was commenting on Trent's post where he referred to Blue H S and in turn referring to Blue's original post, Blue's a male; we all make em Rhi.

Kind regards ippy

I always thought 666 represented the devil or someone who represents the devil. It's all figurative anyway.

And I believe the earliest manuscripts give a different number anyway. Bit of a problem if you need to buy something using the 'Mark of the Beast' (I think that's a prophecy about shopping in the future, somewhere in Revelation).

Not that it matters that much but I was referring to Blue H S and no one else.

I could explain, but for you inability to understand any explanation short of the length, in volume, of that novel war and peace and now you appear to be humourless too?

Ever thought of joining the Foreign Office?

Speaking of chips, just got in & feeling a bit peckish.

Ippy's not the only one who has thought I was a bloke - Mr Robinson as opposed to (from The Graduate) Mrs Robinson. I've also thought people were opposite sex to what they are & got some posters mixed up with eachother.

I've never thought for one minute, at any time you're a bloke Rob, somehow there's been someone getting mixed up on something I posted to Blue H S, Blue is a bloke, I think, (I jest), I'll guess a misread was made and somehow silly old N S has got involved and now even he has got the wrong end of the stick.

Kind regards to you Mr Rob, ippy.

Well, you can hardly blame them, with a user-name like 'Robbie'!

Oh blimey, don't tell me I was getting Steve H's name wrong all this time. I was looking at the avatar - must be a photo of her pin up!

Sorry Stephanie.
