Thus perhaps illustrating an argument for a thread being closed (something I'm not saying is right or wrong - that's Mudcat policy and I don't wan't to get involved there!)

The last post by Shambles which could have baited me further was another one mentioning volunteers. Something I ignored. And there have been other conversations since (BTW Mick, I'm glad you enjoy that CD. I thought they did a good job in that collection.) I could have posted to.

Some people here do seem insistant on refreshing threads that have got unpleasant back in the faces of people who have even agreed to drop out of them despite further provocation. With posts as inane as 97 and 100.
