Hugh Jardon having a dig at Codders again

< Edit: Split from another thread. JK >

codders


not having a go but why in your profile have you left the make of your boat blank, are you embarrased or have you just forgotten?

I wonder how many people in little dinghys or other small craft bother or are even aware of this new law(2002).

I carry far more gear than I need to - my choice - if someone is stupid enough to set out without the proper gear that is their choice. In these days of the "nanny state" it is nice to have a few choices left!!!

It's not as if it's the first time. Why do you find it necessary to persist with this? Do you think it makes you look clever?

No, the question was asked quite innocently. ....forgotten as in forgotten to complete that field

perhaps i should have searched for the thread where someone suggested that cods update his profile and he replied with the fact that he had.....and ask there

Sorry Cods....

I think it was a fair enough question, why not include the manufacturer of your boat?
I originally suggested he updated his profile because new members or people viewing from outside, will think 4000+ posts and he hasn't even got a boat! Nothing against him

For ONCE John I think it's a fair question - I was waiting for someone to pick up on it!!!

The reason I have put the makers name as BLANK is because the builder of my boat chose not to put a name on it!!!

Wether that is because he couldn't be bothered - or he had sold the company or whatever I just don't know!!! Maybe it is in the same place as some other missing bits???

I agree i thought it was a fair question as well

it might be best to associate the boat with a maker for when you want to sell it?

So JK
thanks for picking out my question and starting a new thread trying to ridicule me and trying to call me a smart arse, feel free to apologise in your own good time!

where is my old mate who used to post on here when you need him!!
