Hi, Just to tell you that, apparently, no one cares about YOU! You're a vandal, pest, etc. Cut the crap. You can't go around calling people things like "anal sex lover" WTF?! Damn you got some issues mate. Sort yourself out. If your life revolves around vandalising wikipedia then I feel sorry for you. Who are you trying to impress anyway? As for me- I'm just doingmy job as editor- ie reverting your CRAP, which is childish, immature and down-right SAD! And yes- I do have the authority- esp. to revert CRAP! Now, stop trying to vandalise pages- mine or any other- and go find yourself another occupation. Helpful edits are welcome, but NO CRAP! Got it?! And, next time you DO try and add your rubbish I'll guarantee you'll get blocked-

In 2007 it was discovered that two shows, ''Ant & Dec's Gameshow Marathon'' and ''[[Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway]]'' in which he co-presented with Donnelly had defrauded viewers participating in phone-ins. The latter was produced by the pair's own production company. <ref>

McPartlin is the taller of the two (at 5'8"/1.73m) and usually stands on the left of the screen.
No wait I get it now - you just wanted attention! Poor little Wakatatax has nothing better to do than try and attract attention to himself on wikipedia. You're just immature. Deal with it. NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU- and here is some hard evidence to support this.


== Awards ==
When I delete nonsense entries: I sometimes get warnings, comments etc.
McPartlin and Donnelly have won a considerable number of awards over the years for their television work, as well as awards for Best New Act during their singing career.
When MOST vandals ad crap to wikipedia: it gets reverted then they get warned loads of times, then blocked eventually
When YOU, Wakatatax, add crap: it gets reverted.............and that's it!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!! NO COMMENTING ON YOUR TALK PAGE. NO BOTHERING TO CONTACT SADACT Wakatatax. How sad. I feel sorry for you. Your plan to attract attention shattered the moment you realised nobody cared about you, hence you try and lash out by vandalising ppl's talk pages and such. I pity you. You need to go out and find someone who cares, can bear to listen to you constantly insult their ppl, country, culture, call their countrymen anal sex lovers and have a go at them for reverting the CRAP that you started adding. I'm normally calm but frankly I'm not currently in the mood to PUT UP WITH THIS KIND OF CRAP. Anyway, most of the comments on your talk page are from me. They'll probably check this page and give me a warning tomorrow, when I've had a chance to get over this anger. Who knows - I might be blocked, warned then blocked, or simply have my account suspended (If that's possible). What about you- you attack my talk page- what do you get- NOTHING! Just a simple revert for "work" added by an INSIGNIFICANT user. INSIGNIFICANT in that NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU. Look around. Some random unknown IP address can vandalise a page and add something as stupid as the word "CHAIR" and get a warning. You call people anal sex lovers, tell me to go F*** Myself and you get no response. Whatsoever. Doesn't that make you mad? Isn't that the ''''''real'''''' reason you do this crap? Anyways- you have fun watching you edits get reverted and have nothing to show for it- no blocks- no warnings etc. (except for the person who actually cared enough to warn you- me) And I'll go off and expect a warning/block when I come back tomorrow. I'm not bothering to respond to your crap anymore- attack my user/talk page and just expect to see a "reverted edits by User:Wakatatax" next time you look.
