Hi

 

I can understand why David came in and asked us all to get back to discussing VATSIM, that said I am a little miffed . This is what we do in the UK, have wide ranging discussion's that fulfill our need to cement our community.

 

We have often been called a funny lot, but don't forget we invented golf, football, cricket, the hovercraft, the jet engine, and the steam train. All of this and much more adds to our diversity and eccentricity.

 

Hopefully we will be gone soon and return back to our spiritual home of VATSIM UK, until then a little leeway would be appreciated in our funny ways and often unmistakbly British threads.

Well said Wycliffe.

 

Nice one Benny, one trusts that you duly vectored it to the wrong airport via Denmark as tradition dictates?

I bet you Bill will save the image and have it transferred onto a Tshirt further embedding his persona into VATSIM UK.

Here, here!

 

A stray off topic now and then, never hurt a soul, what?

 

Bad form Dave old boy.

 

Hey Wycliffe, they're not the "funny ways" of a "funny lot". They'd be rather quaint I'd think.

 

Everybody, leave my "curiously British" cousins across the pond alone. . . dang it!

 

Oh my! Time for a cupa.

 

BTW, The situation here in the colonies ( ) is still unchanged. Plodding along alone in the big world we are.

 

 

Laters,

Strange?... it is absoloutly ludicrous if you ask me.

 

Obviously you all missed the UK forums soo much you have decided to cram as much of it into one thread as humanly possible... and it seems to have worked.

 

So could anyone possibly tell me about orange juice bombs orrrr is anyone going on holiday for less than 2 days?

I'm actually enjoying the break from the VATUK Forum.

So it would seem.

Matt - if you have a genuine issue with the Vat-UK fora then I suggest you take it up with the UK management team who own it, run it and determine the content?

It is no-where near a complaint, but more of an observation, not necessarily a bad one - Careful reading would have confirmed that.

I don't have any issues with the VATUK forum whatsoever, if i did i would not visit them so regually.

One of my posts went missing out of the ''Pepsi'' thread without explanation also.

The mod logs show everything.

 

Nothing was removed from the Pepsi thread.

Wycliffe was sent a message explaining the reasoning.
