He never left!Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostOr has atw's avatar changed? Don't say he is about to return and tell us what he thinks?
We chat on a regular basis by PM/Online and he's up to his neck busy, and doing very well too from what I've seen (which will be one in the eye for some of his opponents)
He's quite a nice chap when he's not deliberately winding people up. even then he isn't malicious, though irritating to some
Confusion is a natural state of being -
a very sad loss to this board, in my opinion. as with some others. When we get rid of all the ones who aint just like us, what a fking boring world it suddenly becomes.Originally posted by Diver View PostHe never left!

There is quite enough winding people up on here.
His economic theories were extremely dodgy.
I think saying he is leaving and that he will be back to tell everyone what he thinks of them is unlikely to endear himself to anyone.Comment
