Mr Diggler Sir!

It is not that we do not care, I am sure most of us wish him & his crew a safe return home.
However, it is the bullshit claims that he has made previously that makes him look rather stupid.

By his own actions he is only adding fuel to the fire.

"A Fact is still Fact" not fiction as some would have us believe.

Regards

Oh Dirk you big drama queen! "Tearing him apart"? Hardly! Questions were asked about some of Bear's more imaginative claims that's all. As a member of the forums it would have been very simple for him to set the record straight if he was that bothered.

Without exception everyone has wished him and his team well on this expedition, and they continue to do so.

They are now updating their own web site, so you can still see how they are getting on.

You still about then, Diggler? I rather thought you had snuffed it.

There was programme on TV a couple of nights ago called "Don't Drop the Coffin" and the featured funeral was for someone who gave himself the nick-name of Dirk Diggler. At least that was what was on a huge wreath on his coffin.

Oh well, here's hopin'....

Mike

Give it a rest please. If you want to carry this feud on further please find somewhere else to do it.

Thanks!
John

That's just my sense of humour, John. That clever-dick Diggler just brings out the reactionary in me.

We've noticed

Now, how about starting a thread in the cruising section and telling us about how your plans for Round Britain are coming on?

Cos Keith 'd have my guts for garters. It's his show and there's an excellent thread and web site up and running. Di and I are just going along to lend a helping hand to the intrepid SIBsters - if they need one.

We're only going round Britain cos we gotta get home somehow. And if we get that far, we figure it's as good a way to get to Charles' Herm bash as any.
