Public apology
Public apology
Firstly, for those club members and none club members alike, who read my posts recently I would like to apologise for venting my spleen in a public domain.<br>
Secondly and more importantly to Jonner's, firstly I would like to say sorry for loosing my rag.<br>
I will try and justify my reasons, which actually are rather crass as I read them back to myself.<br>
I have always felt as if we are trying to score points off one another, as our debates have been more and more prevocative, that's not what I am about.<br>
<br>
My main concern was, whilst being relatively new to the world of Dolomiting, you have been questioning (probably rightly!) my prowess as an engineer.<br>
Pride at this point takes over as all engineer's would agree.<br>
I have a pretty warped sense of humour as my job dictates, which can be read by many folk outside my profession very wrong.<br>
And so my percieved view of you has been read wrong also, probably because I am 'institionalised' and not used to addressing a different sense of humour.<br>
I suspect a face to face chat, being able to read your face the issue I have raised would not of happened, but I am new to this media of communication.<br>
<br>
So please except my apologies and I will try my damndest to think before I post.<br>
<br>

Re: Public apology
good to have you back Al. I too have felt the same but due to comments on a different forum.<br>
most if not all coments made here are not personal and yes some peoples views are hard to get used to but we all share the same common cause, keeping dollys alive.<br>

Re: Public apology
Well, I hadn't considered that you had actually left. Welcome back anyhow! How did Sophie react to the 1300? I hope she likes it.<br>

Welcome back...
No more to be said really...<br>
I'm not in to point scoring either really and your engineering abilities Ive come to respect from the views you express..<br>
<br>
Automotive taste is subjective...<br>
<br>
so is therefore subject to criticism...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Teddy in the cot.
Sorry Ritchie I need the gaiter for mine i'm afraid.....<br>
You sorted the roof yet?<br>
<br>
I suspect our sense of humour matches! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

The roof....
I have had to build up that panel you gave me, the edge was all rotten. Luckily the chrome strip will cover the trailing edge. It's in, it's solid, I am hoping it will look more presentable when it is painted....Blue/Carmine/rust remover and bonding filler isn't the most attractive thing in the world <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
The black interior looks great though. All shall be revealed at TDCIR (MOT pending of course)<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->
