Perhaps . . . But after reading through the various topics on the forum, it would be far quicker to list those peoples views you concur with, opposed to those that you ever so slightly disagree with.??

Someone may get the opinion (that word again) that sometimes you poke the stick through the spokes of the turning wheel just to provoke a reaction? No? :?:

Anyway who cares, time for a tea, then bed, yep another 12 hour £640 shift tomorrow :wink:

Err, no, I think you'll find that I generally agree with most of the regular posters on here.

In any case, you seem to be saying that your 'attack and berate' accusation is justified merely because someone in a minority is making their case? :?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but all I do is point out where I disagree with something, and provide an explanation.

I really can't see how you seem to think that I'm any different from anyone else on here Mr GBC - I'm not in the minority, I'm not the most frequent poster, I'm not the most aggressive, so I'm flummoxed :?

I think criticism of anyone for 'having a go' coming from you is a bit rich.

The problem with some people's posts is that they repeat the same old stuff over and over again, so I reply in the same manner over and over again.

Also, they often misrepresent what people have said, or ignore points rebutted in another thread then raise them in another post.

They ignore previous comments by people and provide incorrect facts.

I could go on, but of course pointing out the facts puts me in the wrong!!

If I've made 10 posts to Mick then they must be in response to 10 points made by Mick.

You must be just counting the fact that I split my replies up into seperate posts, in response to numerous points in one single posts, ie you're slightly deluding yourself.

Those must have been two half-points in different posts, therefore one full point split in two #-o :D

But the drivers are restricted by virtue of the knowledge which you are no doubt aware takes on average about 3 years.

But that's a huge difference.

The three year knowlegde is a barrier to entry agreed, but it can be met by those prepared to do it.

But in councils that restrict, drivers cannot get a HC plate unless they pay to queue jump the waiting list. Do you think that is a good thing?

Or they can wait, as some chap did for 26 years. Do you think that is a good thing?
