Having read many threads i have come to the conclusion that i am not interested in the constant bickering that goes on here SO i will say goodbye.
if you can stop arguing long enough to get your boats out on the water i may see you out there if not have fun...

I'm sorry you feel that way. I would say that the level of bickering is pretty low on RIBnet and that the vast majority of the discussions are reasonable and polite.

Thanks for your contributions anyway, and enjoy your RIB.

John

That's a bit rich coming from someone involved in the horsey world.

I used to have a Landy too, nice and solidly built and great as long as you didn't mind waing to all the traffic while you were broken down in a layby all the time.
The old style Cherokee I have now may be less solidly built but in 7 years it hasn't let me down once so far...............

I love a good bicker, a good argument is even better.
On a forum, everyone gets the chance to make their pitch, this is of course going lead to "bickering" even argument. Only doing so on a forum will or should derive a consensus (hope thatis spelt ok, still no spell checker John K., although who cares)
So Clive I invite you to get over it and contribute buddy. Iam sure you will check your "here after" most of the best decisions arrive at only after even argument, also called debate. No one said these forum people myself included are good debaters, but we should still be heard!

As my nine year old says "get over it dad" you too clive, you too.

I hope you reconsider as I am sure we will appreciate your contribution.

I think you'll find we're being sarcastic there has been so many "bikkering" debates over 4x4's, which 4x4's, etc etc just seemed a light hearted bit of banter. Clearly you do not see the funny side of it. Don't panic as I am sure the last thing the majority of people on here want is another debate on who makes the best 4x4 and how many mountains they will and will not climb etc etc, what they can/can't tow. So fret ye not Carl and myself were not after starting another 4x4 debate just a bit of light hearted hunour.
