I know there has been the odd forum get together in the past but doesn't it spoil your picture in the minds eye?

I did it once. I was on a now defunct boxing forum and me and this other guy had some very in depth but sometimes heated debates. He was a boxing writer and got access all areas and he invited me down to one of Ricky Hatton's training camps. We met up, he was a tremendous chap and the perfect host which totally killed my ability to engage with him beyond pleasantries once we were back on the forum. I know it did the same for him and what once had a certain edge which we both relished was gone.

Anybody any thoughts or stories of meet ups?

I think of Chit Chat as a soap opera in which we all participate. I think letting it and real life contaminate one another would be a mistake since it would take away some of the charm of the former and could potentially cause you problems in the latter!

Although I'm convinced everyone would get on far better in real life. Just agree to disagree, have a beer and move onto something less fraught instead of forever points scoring and grandstanding to a wider audience, who really don't give a stuff.

You might be right but I'm fairly confident that I'd still think most of the people on here named after murderers were complete ****s.

Johnny Mustang the gentleman who loves London has never visited Madame Tussaud's,never heard of the first use of the wireless in a murder case.

Johnny Mustang and Mikael DHaguenet are a match made in heaven,two self loathers who love the exotic,the strange.
Their political equivalents would be Nicola Sturgeon and Yvette Cooper,two hypocrites who promised to take in refugees but didnt.

I think what annoys me even more than the man jibes is when he accuses me of lying, like just now and then says I have been found out.  He has never proved I have lied about anything and I challenge any man on here to prove that as well.

I have always prided myself on honesty and not lying above almost anything, so to be accused of it is really upsetting (that word again)

Mr. Brewers, if you're in Plymouth and and want a boat (I don't have one to sell) get in touch.
I know most/some of the so called "brokers" around here, and half of them are shysters, working off the back of someone else's commission.
Just pop their name up and if I can help I will.

The above is in all seriousness, however if you fancy a group hug, I'll rally the troopsGrin

it's ok Mr Gnarley the broker is not from Plymouth himself. The reason we have taken this route is because those we have seen advertised on Ebay tend to gloss over the faults in the adverts, not usually waiting to tell you until you get to the moorings.
