I think you have to look at the bigger picture and accept that the timing wasn't quite right to ask a public question like that. I must admit I might have made a similar mistake myself and wouldn't have realised it until someone like Rob had pointed it out so you ain't on your own mate.

I realised that just after I posted which is why I changed my post above , you were just too quick off the mark for me

No offence intended to rob , my comment was more a general observation about the number of pot shots that have nbeen taken at a small number of us in the last three months.

and yep you have a point - tho to be fair I didnt start the thread it is in fact a very old one which significantly predates the trouble yesterday - tho i have to say that I didnt realise that it wasnt a new thread when I posted on it .... doh as they say
