Ok Know all Trev, its a shame you don't have an ounce of decency in your
messages and tolerance for other peoples opinions. OK I did not read the
whole thread, but that does not give you the wright to start slagging off
anything I have to say when it is all meant in good faith, its no wonder the
packet system is dying like GB7HOL going off air, if it was not for the
support, yes Muck, support I get locally then I woould be gone out of your
nasty obnoshous ramblings that I see on this mode, its good to have a word
filter that can delete things easyily with me even blinking a eyelid.
So enought of this exchange of bitterness to an wierd person from up north, I
shall just apologise to Peter if the info is not what he required, but it was
sent in good faith.
To Muck I say up Yours and stick it where the sun will never shine!!
