    I struggle to believe any of the regulars on this forum would post racist comments. There's always some heated debates/insults but never anyone stooping that low.

    I've been a member of HPC for a considerable time, Hamish bought at the top of the market twice, once in the 90's and again in 2007. I'm not laughing at him, it's poor form I think to do so (aka Sue's post). But his position isn't one that he should be laughing at others from..... that's my opinion anyway.

    Errrm, how was the 1990s the top of the market exactly?

    By the same token, 2007 is unlikely to be the top of the market either.

    I think it was the time of the BNP list fiasco and we had a few of them jokers around on here ( I think one or two regulars have leanings :eek:).
