I hide my online status - so what. In other news Zara is expecting another brat and Jon Venables has been charged with over indecent images. Jon venables does not exist. |

No,not really, CWDF is a fiefdom, applied in different ways at the whims of those who have been given the nod to be a part of the inner sanctum. As Nick and Dyretribe (in different ways!) Have pointed out. They do not all sing from the same hymn sheet, as Graham Davis sheep shagging gif and MTB'S f bomb prove. If it were a clique that cliques views and ideas would be the only standard they worked to. Sadly it's become a dull dead end headed by a wooly minded egomaniac with an odd bunch of sycophantic disciples haphazardly applying some poorly thought through outdated rules and guidelines. Still, outraged of Tunbridge/ Llandrindrod Wells seem to enjoy it. It is much better now though, can you imagine how long the gif would have lasted a couple of years ago!? And MtB would have been banished to TB for using the f-word. The mods are in the main pretty sensible these days. But yes it still suffers from a lack of interest from the “site owner”. I don't often post there anymore and visit far less often than I used to, more for the reason that I've read almost every possible answer to any possible inland waterway/boat-based query multiple times. It's an invaluable resource if you know where to look and who to listen to. If I were ever stuck for a 'engine man', fabricator/welder, signwriter, alternator specialist, gasman, wooden boat tragic or similar I know without question who's opinions to value and where to at least start off with regard to engaging the professional services of same, despite having met none of them and based purely on reputation and provable, well documented results over the last decade. Dan's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't, as history has shown. I'm sure he's still there somewhere  |

Jon venables does not exist. Only someone who looks and sounds like him, has the same name and same police and jail record. Phil But surely legally, not with that name. That may of been his birth name but not anymore. Don't get me wrong I wish the police back than had just had a serious accident with the pair of them. |

Yeah but he managed to avoid me despite us both being in a very small North East coastal village with only two pubs at the weekend. And him from all that way a way, Apart from anything else, how much of a coincidence is that? You knew we were coming, I mentioned we were off to Staithes via Middleham and Knaresborough..... but you hid. And were probably shivering with fright that we were perambulating the cobblestoned aterial thoroughfare so close. Gotta admit, it was a very large co-incidence. I'm glad you didn't spit on us from an upper storey  Errrr............... no you didn't mention Staithes at all (unless you did somewhere else on the forum which I can't recall seeing). Screen grab of PM removed. Monday 4th Dec 1055
Hullo Martin!
I have a calendar for you, anyway! If you can provide an address, then I can put some stamps on it and take it to the Post office, even tomorrow. If not your own address, then that of a local shop/pub, or something/someone/somewhere? Trying to beat the Christmas rush. 6 calendars posted already, 5 to go. Then there are 17 drop-offs. Altogether 31 Thunderboat members; 35 calendars were ordered but that's because two people wanted 2 extra.
Wed 27th - Fri 29th we're driving Halifax -> Liverpool area -> Swansea (via Builth Wells) -> Bristol -> Devizes -> Coventry area -> Northants -> Thorne (?) -> Wakefield. Then back to our boat in Sowerby Bridge for a rest Sat 30th.
Sunday 31st we thought to have a look at Middleham Castle (by Leyburn) and I should be ringing the bells at midnight at Knaresborough. No commitments on that day otherwise. Mon 1st from Knaresborough to Scarborough and then to Goole, then back to Sowerby Bridge (possibly via <removed>, he's somewhere between Knottingley and Nottingham).
2nd-4th Jan boating up to Hebden Bridge & back - Tuel Lane Lock not open until the 2nd, so the playing around with a car suits us well on this trip. Fri 5th Jan back to Manchester Airport.

The curse of the Fox: Anyone else publishing my PMs..... will die. Then don't imply that somebody is lying and say a message contains something when it does not. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't. I will delete the screen grab though given your comment about another members location. |

I also run an unmoderated forum. Well, run is stretching it as there is little to do if there are no rules. It's full of vile misfits banned from another forum, but frankly they could up their game a bit! So to be a bit contentious I would say moderating keeps things spicy - if there are no rules to kick against or boundaries to push the inhabitants only swear for the humour of it. There hasn't been a single argument since it started over a year ago or a single personal insult. Frankly I'm disappointed and considering adding rules and banning a few people at random to jolly things up a bit. |

The thing I'm amazed with is that all those people with so much to say and who act all tough on cwdf are too scared to come and post somewhere they can really say what they feel like.
I can't help thinking that the whole banning thing on cwdf relates to behind the secenes stuff relating to crt' and or shoesmiths, look how much money and effort they put into trying to discredit Nigel Moore. Including entering posts from cwdf as evidence against him. Your telling me someone hasn't had a word in dans shell like? He just folded and got rid of all the vocal critics of crt. What a chicken, he should have passed it on to someone else a long time ago.

When this place first started I had a look n see but the language was pretty awful as everyone let off steam and I retreated..I found the posting style too offensive....I returned when I had a couple of pm's from people who had come here and weathered the storm...the rest is history....I like it here and feel i fit in. I can chose which threads to engage in and those that occasionally disturb I ignore....But I do love the way most threads weave in and out of topic....that is except apparently the Rugby one...

Up to the attic with Jim's jokes. Thank You. Few want to walk constantly along a tightrope, there should be allowances for the occasional fall and to say "Bollocks!" and the ungainly attempt to clamber back on to the rope only to end up swinging upside down like an orangutan. Ooh I get a mention 2 posts in a row. Did I mention you look like a spaniel in that hat? |

Every journey starts with a single step apparently Rog |
