If there was just one person dead or alive we could say sorry to and never have or did for certain reasons who would that person be and why?

I would tell my Grandmother "Ma" that I am sorry that I was not more involved with her after my Grandfather passed on.

I was too young to understand the loneliness of being parted from a partner you had been with more than 50 years and my mother was not a good role model for me in this area.

Thankfully no oneI dont think i have any reason to feel sorry or to say sorry to anyone,,,,,,,, so far

I'm sorry, I didn't say why, I thought people generally knew. He was an American hanged by the British for a murder which, had DNA techniques been available at the time, his defence team could have demonstrated hadn't occurred. He went to the gallows an innocent man as far as I can see.

I agree with you Kaz. I have been called stubborn before but if i do believe i'm in the wrong, then i will apologise sincerely asap. If i don't believe i'm in the wrong, then i don't. Some people apologise too much to be frank and i've known people make an apology and the moment they have walked away, still insist they are right. I like people who have the courage to stand by their convictions. I won't kow tow to any-one just to feed their ego. If i know i was wrong, i will say so. If that makes me stubborn or arrogant, then, tough, I'm not apologising. :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Have you any idea how furious the Americans would be if the UK Government admitted we'd hung an innocent US citizen?

Absolutely but should that be a reason to deny him a pardon?

It's rather a BIG mistake.

Agreed but considering much circumstantial evidence points to 'Jack The Ripper' being one 'Francis Tumblety' an American Quack, i think that makes us even.

Spot on........ followed by 'Look, I'm sorry, I'm not being funny, BUT :yh_rotfl

There are times we all offend some-one without realising it and if i'm made aware that i have un-intentionally offended some-one, then i will say so. Some-times you get people who apologise for everything and anything but then expect you to be the same.

As my lawyer told me....... I am legally permitted to have an opinion. :yh_rotfl

Yesh..... it's the excuse for some-one to insult you. When you rip their their heads off, they say 'Well i did say i wasn't being funny' as if that makes it ok.

You just reminded me. My sis has just had a whopper of baby and she was in labour for two days. I went in, looked at my new neice and said 'oh wow she's gorgeous'... looked at my sis and said 'you look like ***** though'. I was only being honest :wah:

And your not apologising :yh_rotfl

If I am in the wrong I will say sorry,I try not to let it get that far.:-6:-6

When I do have to say sorry I really mean it,it is not just something that rolls of my tongue without meaning.It is hearfelt.

OK, I will say sorry to the woman who's clothes i un-pegged from her washing line and re-pegged onto a line 10 doors away.

I would say sorry to my dad's mom for never really getting to know her. Thank gawd, we have tapes of her outlining her life from the age of 6 to 93. I would also ask her forgiveness for taking some cash from her, I was young & stupid.:-1

I would like to say I am sorry to my Dad for not being there on the day he passed away because I never got to say "I love you and thank you for being my Dad" for the last time. Maybe a few others but not sure I am really sorry. I usually say what I mean and mean what I say even though it may hurt feelings at times. I try and not say things in anger because those words can never be taken back.
