I totally understand the reasons for closing this thread. but I feel this subject needs dealing with and not locked away, better dealing with a problem than sweeping it under the carpet, apologies if Iv'e misunderstood any intentions here but just back from several pints of rather delicious Darkstar American Pale Ale. :drinkup:
My apologies, I have unclosed the thread. Knock yourselves out.
No lets not, close it again please Conrad it isn't what this site is about. We've lived there before.Quote:

For my sins I have continued to received the updates from the forum in my email, and it is sad watching this little blow up happening it certainly isn't what I used to enjoy and be motivated by on this site. I have actually taken the time to remove myself from the forum emails so that I wont be tempted to abuse my admin rights going forward.
Many of us have noticed this Conrad, your reasons obviously are your own, but I'd like to say I have always appreciated your comments and involvememt on the best pub site going. You and Dave made this so remember that, and please whatever is going on now in your life we appreciate what you have given us. I personally hope you get back involved soon. Hope to see you back here soon as a regular C, best wishes, Mm.Quote:

That's my view anyhow.
In London norf of the river and sarf of the river works for me.
I'm led to believe that they still paint their faces blue in the uncivilised and virtually tubeless Sarf!!Quote:

d) There are still > 10000 pubs on the site without any area added and effort would be better spent here.
However, as a couple of people think they are useful and most people's concensus seems to be that even if they are not useful they aren't doing any harm, I shall no longer "correct" these.
The people of "East Manchester" can sleep safely in their beds. :rolleyes:
Tiff over as far as I'm concerned. :cheers:

I will try and keep away from causing any more trouble and take a lower profile on the forum.
Cheers Alan
Don't keep too low a profile, you have some good knowledge and a lot to offer on the forum and main site.Quote:
