    Club Etching and Stock Renovation Threads.

    What happened to Catlover and his extremely interesting threads ?
    I see he's now registered as a 'Guest'.
    They were still running when I logged off last night, but gone when I logged on this afternoon.

    Good question David. Now you mention it, where on earth have those threads gone? Did someone offend Cat or was it the other way round?

    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.

    Surely the grown up section hasn't had its first fisticuffs?

    I think quite a few of us were very interested in the etching progress Chris, he was putting a lot of his time into sorting it and I have a prewar BSA CS model that would have been a candidate.

    Don't think it was a wind up, it did look good.

    ... It would appear that catlover was a previously, permanently, banned member. Can't say any more than that. Thread now locked: G.
