As a bit of a wind up merchant myself, best advice is NEVER EVER let it show that it bothers you... If people try to wind me up I tend to laugh along with them, even add the odd self deprecating comment, once you've got the crowd onside just saw him off at the knees with something funny but horrendously insulting. Either that or just mimic him straight back - two can play at being puerile at he'll get tired of it quick. You need a thick skin though.The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of HeavenComment

Or just make up some bulltulip rumour about him tulipting himself or something and just constantly slip it into conversation with everyone like its pure fact. Eventually it'll bug him.. a lotThe mind is its own place, and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of HeavenComment

Thanks guys. This forum is worth belonging to.
