It came about as the Chairman post a few posts on forum and kept getting interrupted by stupid comments! Some bright spark suggested a blog where he can get his say!
Though the forum is still alot better than the real lounge........

Then again, I am in that transition period between "young turk" and "grumpy old git" so I realise that my views are rapidly becoming irrelevant to the wider world.
I think that CUK will become quite entertaining over the next week or so...

So please, if some weirdo with a photographic memory happens to recollect anything this guy Malvolio has said in the past, and why he might feel the need to bow out with such a fanfare, do enlighten us.
Malvolio, or rather the person behind him, or rather the person behind the character on this forum - not William Shakespeare obviously, took a position in a particular contractor organisation which was not really compatible with appearing on here "in character".
They are no longer in that position with the other organisation so there is no reason for them not to resume the Malvolio persona here.
I believe he has upset the BN66 affected people, but as far as I can see that has been by asking them if they have thought through what will happen if they don't win, the very idea of which has put some people's backs up.

aha! his real name is PoB. Of course, the people there still think the plural of forum is "fora".

There is a list of directors, management team and consultative councel on the website so maybe he is now on one of those? But none of them are called Malvolio.....
