Note to all

[kimhollamby]

Things are getting a little sparky around here of late. We will not tolerate:

a) abuse of other users
b) flood posts

We will deal with a) by banning and b) (thanks to the new forum software) by placing flood control (ie maximum number of posts per time period) on individual user profiles.

Furthermore I have additional moderators now that are not as patient as I am.

Please respect one another's opinions at least, even if you do not agree,

If you do not like an individual user you can now opt to ignore by selecting ignore this user on your preferences.

Everyone (whether multi-billion post user or newcomer) has been warned.

Yes. But at least it was interesting, and funny at times but not Sanitized which I think it was in danger of becoming.......I'm sure others will agree?

 

[kimhollamby]

Interesting and funny we can live with, hounding users and over-use of the facilities we can do without

 

[itsonlymoney]

Have I missed something whilst on my Holidays ?

 

[whisper]

Yes, an interesting post -initially- regarding hull shapes which kept reappearing ad nauseum under other titles.
Hope you had a nice holiday.

 

[itsonlymoney]

And I take it that things got a little out of hand ?
Nice holiday but rubbish weather, thanks for asking. (see lanzarote holiday update)

Yeah, they've all gove stir-crazy in the closed season. You watch the mood brighten up in March /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

 

[Wiggo]

Who says this is closed season? I just wish the Eberspacher were a bit more consistent...

 

[paulineb]

Ours has just bitten the dust ..... again ! Hopefully, just a service is required

 

[itsonlymoney]

Our electric blanket works fine. Who need eberspacher. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yes I agree

I enjoy the content but I think the number of posts is completely out of control

You seem to have a lot of trouble with your F37. Have you seen the Manhattan 50 vs the T60 debate.

 

[Wiggo]

Can't get either into Christchurch. Unless you're offering to buy me one, of course... We struggle getting the bloody F37 in there some days. Anyway, all I have problems with at the mo is a slightly recalcitrant Eberspacher that's been booked for a service... Sorry to disappoint, but no Sealine-bashing ammo today, I'm afraid.

 

[gcwhite]

You saw me coming.
I have to admit I have had trouble with ebers also. It seemed to delight in producing vast clouds of fume at the most inconvenient moments such as when I was trying to sell the boat.

 

[Wiggo]

Ours did that for two hours on Friday last. We gave up, and wrapped up well for the night. It started first time Saturday morning, just when we didn't need it, but sulked Saturday afternoon as the temperature started to drop. So I went to B&Q and bought an oil filled radiator, and the damned thing fired up as I was plugging the rad in...

 

[gcwhite]

See following Kim's censure we can be nice to each other.

Chichester is tricky. I was crew on a Squadron 52 a few years ago and the skipper brought her through the lock in a strong cross wind which I think would push me to the limit of my skills.

I believe the smoking is known as 'doing a haydn'. You know your eberwotsit is unwell when people come up and ask if your boat is on fire /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
