I think the reason I feel kind of Ok about ripping the crap out of you is cos you put it out there.

Well, yeah. WSS. [Assuming you're saying that to SY!]Originally posted by mudskipper View PostWSS, and we wouldn't have you any other way.
Your threads are normally pretty entertaining, in a bizarre sort of way.

So you agree that you have up to now been a bedwetter who runs at the first sign of trouble?Originally posted by suityou01 View PostAs far as I'm aware, this is a massive change of script for me. I thought I was the bedwetter that ran at the first sign of trouble.
Perhaps you descended into the usual rut of 'kick suity' and it's you that should change the script, along with a whole host of others.
That means that this contract could possibly be your first successful one, perhaps a sign of things to come? A corner has been turned?
Or, if you do another runner, your entire contracting career has been a disaster.
