The problem with you is that you lie and misrepresent so much, Michael

That simply isn't true

Of course I don't expect you to admit it, Pendragon.

Any so-called "misrepresentation" you can find was based on one of

Oh, so HarryLiar wants proof? Let's look at his next paragraph:

I only know you from what you post here.  If you write a poem
based on a "romantic interlude" where you grope a woman you barely knew,
then I'm going to say that you sexually assaulted her (because according
to your poem, that's exactly what you did).

Harry Liar reposted an "edited" poem Will had written over 40 years ago
about a dream he'd had. You reposted part of the poem, snipping the line
about it being a dream, to falsely accuse him of sexual assault.

Thanks, George.
I see that Harry Lime aka Michael Pendragon is bringing his attacks on
me here, spreading his lies and misrepresentations.
Never mind the Harry Lime bullocks, here's the original unedited version
