This seems to have unleashed a series of personal attacks against me

Malc, don't play at being a victim,  if you don't like what people post  just press the report button.  I for one am not going to apologies.  Your agenda is to gain gold stars as quickly as possible and to that end you post multiple replies of inane comments instead of answering all the queries/points in one post.  Enough folk on here have hinted at your posting, it's so bad now that its a complete turn off. 

Write your comments here...I'm not playing victim, Oneputt. Ian said he was feeling uncomfortable about this thread and I replied to what he said by giving an accurate account of what actually happened and I agreed with him because I, understandably, felt the same about it as he did.

I've been posting on this forum for about two years now and have seen this kind of behaviour before. So it's not something that's new to me.

Write your comments here...Someone suddenly says something untoward and then someone else joins in by saying let's ignore Malcolm. I've seen it before. It's just the history of what has gone on before on this forum repeating itself.

The visit to the dentist didn't happen. Arrived on time only to be ask "Why are you here your appointmant's been postponed and we texted you" Surprised Seems the compressor had broken down so I've to go on Friday now. However it gave me time to visit the bank before leaving town. 

Managed to book our first site for our next trip this evening and waiting for a reponse from an e-mail about the next one.

I have to ask, Nellie......what do they use the compressor for?

To drive the jack-hammer? Laughing

 

Ian, the drills etc are all air driven, hence the need for a compressor. One does not want a electric device put into one's mouth does one?

I didn't think of that......no one doesn't.......Embarassed

Nellie - we used our XC 90 for towing within a few hundred miles of buying it - a trip to Edinburgh in a gale!

I don't recall any restrictions and it doesn't appear to have done it any harm.

I think it's generally accepted now that there's no need to put miles on the clock before towing. LR don't stipulate it these days. If in doubt, consult the handbook.

You are right jeffCC. I did my own little survey (just in case I'd been totally out on my previous comments on the closed thread.) In 22hrs by page 11 on this thread there were 107 posts, the major poster was MM. Many of his comments were to posters who'd previously said they would not be responding to him. This indicates someone who is not engaging with anyone and has no intention of abiding by the rules on here.

Write your comments here...I can't help noticing, Brue, that you are on the same level of stars as myself i.e. 5 purple. That means you have been posting just as much as I have and Tinwheeler too. Milliehull suggested that I should be ignored in response to what Tinwheeler said. Had TW not said it, she would have not responded in that way.

Write your comments here...There are others on here, Oneputt that are on the same level of stars as me. TW and Brue are both on their way to Gold too as they are both on 5 purple. They have,  therefore, posted just as much as me, yet no-one is calling them bad!

Malcolm....I reckon those you mention have been members since Day 1, so have had longer to accumulate posts.

They are also long-time caravanners/MHers so have a wealth of experience to pass on, and have given a lot of good advice on sites/travelling/technical stuff over the years.

There are other forums where "chat" posts do not count for anything, IMO it should have been the same here!

Write your comments here...Yes, KjellNN whatever people post in whatever section including fun and trivia all add to their post count. So there's more to this forum than just technical matters.

This forum first started in January 2012 and it's now June 2016. It's so long ago that I can't remember when I first started posting on here but I think it was sometime in 2013 when I was in the process of considering buying  a caravan and joining the club.
