Those have followed the other thread will know why i'm saying this,
Yesterday I said some things that didn't need to be said, I acted and posted inapropriately and I feel that the most of what I posted in the later pages was out line, as for my pops there were underlying issues which the partys involved would not of known nothing about and it was unfair of me to project it there way.

To pete and lissa.. I'm truely sorry for acting like an ******* towards you yesterday it wasn't justified or called for at all.

I'm quick to stand up and judge sometimes.. But I'm also quick to step back and say that I was wrong.

As for the thread I feel my first points were justified I'm sorry to claire for filling full of arguements on one massive derail.

Big respect to you John :notworthy:

I was rather bewildered by the fact that I had upset your Dad, and by association, you. It was never a pop at his bike but a joke against the Duke. However, I can see how, if you've never met me before, it could have been taken the wrong way. I'm always like that. Take the p!ss and have it given back in spades. Hopefully it's what people remember and usually eases a newbies trepidation.

It has made me aware from your comments and others on the thread, that I must be a little less bullish when I meet people for the first time.

Hopefully you and MissLyleJ will still come tomorrow and we can start anew.

John, big respect for saying that. It's never easy to offer public apologies.

Glad you're still hear and it's easy to get carried away when you get into "the mood".

I'm sure everyone on here will think no more of it and I for one hope to see you and MissLyleJ at the AR!

Group hug :grouphug:

Pete is a lovely guy; as BanannaMan said in the other thread, if you go to a ride-out and everyone is simply civil and then ignores you its terrible. Banter and mickey taking is what means that people like you! Nice one on the apology, I always thought you seemed like a nice bloke and now I look forward to meeting you at the AR09 (and getting my rust bucket bike slagged off by Pete again ;))

Seems to be the other way round with me: when I don't know people at a rideout I sometimes worry that my sense of humour won't go down well so I'm always shy until a bit of mickeytaking works its way into conversation then I know where I stand :-) Everyone is different lol!

Lovely guy:confused:
Owns a Ducati and slags off other (reliable) bikes:confused:

Guess you know a different Pete and I'm certain Lissa wouldn't recognise the description:-dd

Takes a big man John, will see you tomorrow I hope.

It has made me aware from your comments and others on the thread, that I must be a little less bullish when I meet people for the first time

And respect to Pete too, not everyone can look at both sides of a coin.

For some reason i`ve only just seen this thread..... my attention was drawn to it via another thread. Am really really sorry John that I didn`t comment at the time and I`m relieved that you feel so much better about the events of that day. Sometimes you need to air a grievance then go away and look at it from another angle...Geez I have to do it all the time!!

No worries about derailing.... as far as I was concerned it wasn`t a derail, you needed to get that off your chest.

Big hug and well done

Didn't see the original argument, but respect for admiting you were wrong. A quality that is all too absent these days: Well done.
