I wasn't well enough to get more involved yesterday sadly. I did my best to get folks to be a bit more concilliatory
but sadly too little and too late.

I'm afraid the original good intentions of the f-b group set up by Col Hughes have not been continued by its current moderator. He called it wrong and despite my attempts to get him to see reason has rather pulled posts to hide unreasonable behaviour and this appears to me to be an attempt to limit damage to his own reputation, and the other moderators of the group were not around to call him out in time and argue for a more reasonable approach.

I'm sure we can all cool down over this in due course but I am pleased about the new TDC f-b group.

I really don't understand why there is such a negative attitude to the TDC in some circles. It is completely unwarranted.

No he didn't.

I was conversing with James at the time, both of us were also online and equally astonished at the events as they unfolded; he was blocked by the admin, as was I moments later.
He was asked to stop posting and then removed himself which is why his name went grey for a while, he was then temporality blocked from posting.

James disagrees with your statement in a post on another thread.
Could you link me to where James has disagreed with me because I can't find it?

Cheers ;)

Let's keep our hobby friendly and fun for everyone and let's all work together to promote ownership and preservation of these great cars.

Hang on, can I just comment here. No, no one asked me to stop posting anything. What I was doing at the time was writing the spares update and at the same time promoting the club when suddenly I found myself blocked. No one even had the decency to even speak to me.

Then I find myself accused of thing I haven't even said or done. The only comment I ever made on those threads was to answer a question about price. Exasperated to say the least.
