People who rarely agree with other people are often described as disagreeable. . But those who acquiesce too freely and attempt to side-step contentious conversation , may be thought of as deceptively- or even dishonourably - affable. Folk who seemingly seek harmony at all costs , may find that they privately pay a very high price for supressing their secret , strong opinions. Doesn't a vital point deserve honest discussion ? That can hardly happen without a little candour, even conflict.
At this point, every little black magpie eye was upon me. I could see they agreed. Tomorrow, I weed amongst the chili bushes. They are a bunch of bolshies, I live in interesting times. Bob
