    My mistake, I'll remember and avoid that in future.
    General is way too much of a bear pit for people to be honest and trustworthy. ANYTHING posted gets used against you. I even had 2 posters doubt I did my iron man - despite that I posted tons of proof. In fact I posted way too much - there was one particular thing I regretted and will do for a long while. Thats just a recent example - I have seen a few over the last 6 years.

    And alas that spills over into the professional forums.

    Its incredibly sad.

      You should have said you regularly fly your Tornado to Italy to get some noodles, then nobody would question your credentials.

        I didn't doubt the iron man until this episode. Actually I still think you did it, but if transpired you hadn't I would now not be particularly surprised.

        That's the problem with being a convincing liar - you lose any credibility and trustworthiness. I don't know (nor now particularly care) if any/all your story was true or made up. For a while I was genuinely concerned that you had posted a picture of an identifiable woman in a compromising position on the net for all to see. I believed I had identified the woman. Whether or not my identification was correct is hardly the point. What I googled anyone could have googled, including nutters, blackmailers and nasty characters of any description. If I was your fitness instructor facebook friend I would be pretty upset, and possibly even go to the police. Think Lord Alpine.

        As you say, it's incredibly sad.

              Not quite sure how she could be identified from the picture. Reminds me of the film Porkys. Maybe you could put up posters "has anyone seen these tits in real life?". Or have a line up of topless women and see if they are identifiable.

              If the woman concerned had been seperated or single then no issue. I have a huge problem with two timers. In fact a big problem with secrets where people have a right to know.

              On Saturday I drove halfway across the country to see Spod and CM. Spent 4 hours with them - I told them the truth about what is going on. I think it took 30 seconds or less - we all laughed and then its forgotten. This is how things should be.

              Quite frankly I expected my original post to cause a laugh. Then it be forgotten. Quickly. But this is the cuk and fookwittery happens. In fact it seems to be positivly promoted.

              Its very sad.

                No, of course she couldn't be identified just from the photo, but you didn't stop there.

                I assumed it was all a wind up until you started posting that Spod and CM had met her and she was the wife of the best man at your wedding.

                At this point I thought, "Fook me, this moron has put a real photo of a friend on the net". I couldn't quite believe anyone would be so disloyal/stupid, so I checked your facebook friends and found a fitness instructor, along with a man of the same surname who would indeed fit the description of the husband who works on a building site, and figured the lady, who shared a similar figure to the MILF you posted, was the girl in the picture. The point is, that if I identified (whether correctly or not) the lady you posted, so could anyone else. If you think that's fine and a bit of a laugh then we'll have to agree to differ.

                  I am sure that would be possible but probably involve too many false positives

                      He's defriended her. Or her him. I can't think why.
