    Dithering Dad used to talk about the 90s.

    If it is (which I don't think it is entirely) I wasn't I thought further. But adding to that thinking so would have made me extremely fortunate also.

    But to Add I think Graham decides, but he is not around at the moment. :)

    He should come back from HPC brimming with new ideas and information :eek:

    tbf, and I don't think he'd mind me saying this, but it was more the gay scene he was interested in.

    I have got a feeling he might come back slightly soiled.:o

    As much as the fella was annoying and would never listen he had an endearing never give up attitude, the kind of one that made people nearly blow up.

    Funnily enough I received a PM from him this morning, at least I think it was him as he was using a new username instead of his Dithering Dad one (DD4). He asked me why I kept quoting him all the time, and he expressed concern about my motives. I replied with an explanation and he's now quite happy for me to be his chief cheerleader on the economy board.

    Such a nice fellow. I never will understand why you lot drove him out of here. You should have feted him as a God! :)
