I can forgive just about ANYTHING ... but the 'forced cutesiness' of that CW thread was utterly nauseating. Don't ask me to read it again. Rog Don't worry Rog, I would never ask you such a thing. Only read it again if you really feel the need. There's plenty of much more interesting stuff to read elsewhere. Peter.

Having spent quite some time speaking with the Severn lock staff and the foreman at Gloucester to get their thoughts on what they were expecting river levels to do over the next few days, and their agreement to operate the locks up to Worcester out of normal hours so that the OP's could get onto the canal before the river rose into the 'red', I didn't take too kindly to having them frightened into staying put on the G & S by the alarmist claptrap posted by prats like DrBob and Sharpness.

Rog I think it is probably only those people who have received assistance from you that fully realise how much time and effort you put into it. It is not just general advice but precise sailing instructions that you have checked against available river/tide/weather information, often by contacting lock keepers etc. I know I was amazed when actually on a passage you had helped me plan, to get a phone call (in fact several) to check progress and to give information on the next section to transit. There are a few who will give flippant and often inaccurate advice on forums. There are some will give good general advice based on their experience. There is only one person that I know who will give such carefully checked advice for that individuals particular passage ..... and that is you...... Thank you

Daniel's no fan of Dunkley, . . . . . . . . . . He decided that I was to be permanently banned from his precious internet site after I told him a few home truths about himself, his coven of moderators, and some of his members. Perhaps he thought you violated forum T&Cs? PS Daniel is not one of my fans [yes there are some], but I never got banned.

Yeah !!! and if you don't they will invent a T&C and then retroactively ban you for life ....... you are either blind to what goes on around you or you are just a twat

No, definitely not, . . Rusty69's post in the CWDF thread I linked to was made in response to some sideways remark that LadyG (as when on CWDF, and Socks on here) made about me after someone else said they wanted to see me back on CWDF. Anyway, why do you, and others, spend so much time on the "despised" CWDF, and trotting back here with "tales to teacher", it's either totally juvenile, or obsessive behaviour. Spotted on Canalworld, contribution by LadyG: "Well I've been treated to a sample of his style this week, he's is a pia, and I told him so .............. he can't disagree."

Spotted on Canalworld, contribution by LadyG: "Well I've been treated to a sample of his style this week, he's is a pia, and I told him so .............. he can't disagree." That's you at it again ............. sneakin' on to CWDF , picking up quotes and posting them on here. In the interests of transparency, I confessed to having told him my honest opinion, I'm not the kind of person who sucks up to someone, then stabs them in the back, Mr Stabby doesn't do it, and neither do I. PS I don't tell them you are a complete pia, 'cos the jury is still out on that, and you are fairly quiescent over there, are you banned Foxy? What was your misdemeanor?

Looks kinda irreverant irrelevant to me PS I promise not to use the word Troll again, but I may revert to "unimpressed" [ ] as this forum is not moderated. _____________________________________________________________________________________________

He decided that I was to be permanently banned from his precious internet site after I told him a few home truths about himself, his coven of moderators, and some of his members. Perhaps he thought you violated forum T&Cs? No, . . I was banned for life from CWDF by the Site owner for precisely the reason I've already stated. Things came to a head sometime after the Liverpool Lightship was thieved by C&RT and towed away to Sharpness, and the initial ban was a direct result of D Hutch giving in to C&RT pressure to shut me up about it by way of a deluge of warning points, short-term suspensions, and being constantly put on 'Mod queue' so that by the time any of my posts were edited, 'approved', and appeared they were so mangled and out of date as to be utterly irrelevant and pointless. I first tried e-mailing the Mods concerned, the prime culprit was a menopausal old ratbag called Wrigglefingers, but to no avail. I then e-mailed D Hutch himself, only to get back a patronizing and nonsensical load of tripe about how they were all doing their best to be even-handed and fair to all parties involved. My e-mailed reply to him was a plain and forthright expression of just what I thought of the whole lot of them and the way the forum was run, and it was his inability to cope with and respond like an adult to a bit of straight talking in a private communication that led to my permanent, lifetime ban. As I've said before elsewhere, it was nothing other than personal dislike and petty-minded grudge nursing by an inadequate man incapable of reacting to criticism other than by throwing a childish tantrum.

Socks appears to remain under the misguided belief that valid reasons were necessary before bans from CWDF were imposed.
Some were banned without explanation or right of reply.
Some discovered they were banned when they tried to log on.
It appears there was a simple 'cull' of those the mods and their friends didn't like, or disagreed with.
Some just got mixed up by simple bad luck ... I guess johnv's crime.
Folks can say what they like about thunderboat ... many do without any first hand experience ... but the air is much cleaner here, bad language or not.
