"What do you not like about the truth?"

I adore the 'truth'.. it's great.. probably ultimately even better than electric guitars and ladies private parts..

Trouble is the truth can be such a difficult phenomena to identify and hold up for all to see, agree, and marvel at... 😜

Regarding that specific instance - Al's experience in £shop Bolton - I agree with you !!!

[which I think.. ok.. hope I've communicated clearly enough in previous posts in this thread...]

Though in general terms, 'some'* regular mudcatters would benefit all if more effort were made at clarity in their writing.

Would save a lot of 'misunderstandings' and frustratingly wearisome divisive protracted arguments...


[* 'some' - including myself.. I know I'm not a very good writer any more.
My written skills of expression have deteriorated substantially since my 'intellectual' peak quarter of a century ago...


That's one of the main reasons why I value mudcat so much - daily stimulation from some exceptional good quality minds.
Even those I am not in agreement with on specific issues]
