It's been bought to my attention that I offended more than a couple of forum members with this post hardly surprising tbh. I've never pretended to be anything other than a kid dragged up through the gutters who's trying to be better and there was a time when I was a far less amicable and easy going person that I am today. I'm not the sort of person to delete things and pretend I never said them as what I say I usually stand by . However I am the sort of person who holds my hand up to say I'm wrong when I'm wrong. Unfortunately on this occasion the gutters in which I was dragged up in came out. Whilst I stand by the point I was trying to make there was certainly 100 different better ways I could've better phrased said point so to all those who took offence and rightly so I apologise.

I like this forum a lot and the majority of it's members so I hate to think I offend any of you and like I said sometimes I post before I've put my brain in gear. I will try to do better.

Takes a big man to apologise (even if this one keeps saying he's quite little, really).

For YFUSA's part, he had to google "tampon" to find out what one was and that's five seconds of YFUSA's life he's not getting back, but there is absolutely no need to apologise (for that) - YFUSA is all about broadening his knowledge and, if some day some fella offers to bet YFUSA he doesn't know what one is, YFUSA is quids in!

There's always a silver lining.

Now can we get back to talking about how great YFUSA is, please?

Yorick this is just plain wrong so was what Maurice said about old mods dealing with things. People have done and said things on here in the past that have been absolutely malicious and weren't dealt with and there are plenty of their victims still around to testify.

The only mod here is me. That's it - it's been this way since Colin's passing.

I expect people here to act like adults, and abide by the common courtesy that this forum expects. To start ragging on people, bullying - or any other antisocial behaviour - disrespects this forum and the memory of its owner. So don't do it.

If you see something you don't like - either report it or send me a PM. I don't desire to be a policeman here - I have enough things to do. So please behave yourselves. Thank you.
 
Just for clarity Mister B i was reffering to mods way before your time. In the main i don't think there has been much here in your time where it's been needed which is of course how it should be. Its all been quite harmonious on here for while barring Saturdays little bit of handbags.

No worries - I figured that out now. And "handbags", that's a hilarious British idiom. :thumbsup:
 
Panic Attack given a mark of 147. With a dosage profile that says she'd stay 8 mile and with the bottom one to get in the National last year off 145. I'm not sure what plans Skelton has for her but if he's thinking ahead of fending off a Mullins late challenge for the title then he could do a lot worse than not running her again until mid February.

I think they'll give her a go in the KG. Why not. When mares start improving like that, there's no telling where they'll end up.

If you compare this to some other recent rises, I think she has got away very leniently, especially as she's now on Skelton''s magic carrots.
