Hi Peter, I notice you were born in Leeds. I was born in Bradford 85 years ago. The advent into the site of this pseudo Romanian has, I think, finally killed my interest. I was preparing a further input but with this kind of garbage being permitted on the site I do not wish to expose myself to illiterate and stupid comment.I notice Marjorie has arrived at the same conclusion. I think the original concept was excellent but the team has failed miserably to keep it on track. I know you are not involved as a team authority so I thought I would mention it to you. It would, based on past experience, be useless to talk to the team. Their response would be the usual platitudes absolving them of all responsibility. Nice talking to you though. Regards

Harry,
When you start running down other people on this misbegotten site please consider what you yourself have just written above!
For Heavens's sake man at least be consistent!
Here is what you said:-

I know exactly what I said and if you read my previous comments you will see how consistent they are in trying to get the original concept back on track. Your inputs (and I do mean your) have been most unhelpful in this regard. I am pleased however that you have dropped the pseudo accent even though you claim it is being input by a friend. I have suggested in the past that we provide proper names, addresses and either e mail or telephone numbers and drop the nicknames. How about you doing that. Incidentally, if you are in Romania how is it that your server is in the U.K.

Sorry that windtalker butted in on what was a comment to you,however, it seems we have to endure his interference. I am pleased that it pulled down the stupid romanian facade. Now he may say what he means without the phony accent.He may even have the courage to tell us who he is etc etc.

Hi Harry
I agree with your first message above. Nice to see that you are a Bradfordian. After I retired I lived for about 8 years in Bradford, off Kings Road, about half a mile down from Five Lane Ends. The land was probably a farm in your day, it was built over in about 1990. I still have a very soft spot for Bradford. One of the finest runs in Yorkshire is still up past Idle then up through Baildon and across the moors to the Cow and Calf at Ilkley. Great place.
All the very best Harry,
Peter
