Guest pelmetman Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Frank is quite a character your Lordship ;-).....................he joined under the pseudonym "Had Enough"............ with a declared agenda of driving off the forum people he considered were lowering the tone with the quality of their input 8-).......................I was one of those HE considers a blight on the forum :D.......... The best bit is ;-)....................Had Enough was subsequently discovered to be non other than former forum member........ Frank Wilkinson........ who had been banned from this very forum for his own input (lol) (lol) (lol) You have to smile at the irony >:-)............

LordThornber Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Ahh, THAT Frank, and Bruce has gone too eh? That's a shame, it's amazing the changes that take place when you're off the scene for two and bit years. Frank was hilarious at times, downright rude at others, he was about when I first joined this Forum. Martyn (Still finding my feet) :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CliveH Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes Frank Wilkinson - of Frank Wilkinson Cameras - he must have single handedly reduced the firms turnover with his puerile belligerence. Seems to have run off and hid after being outed on the Motorhome Maters Thread when members of ANOTHER Forum where his amazing behaviour resulted in a ban there - realised he had popped up on here under an assumed name/identity and told him what is what. https://www.outandaboutlive.co.uk/forums/Motorhomes/Motorhome-Matters/campsite-loos-are-they-important-to-you-/34152/211/ As I said on that thread "fascinating".....................

Are you getting a bit slow on the uptake Clive or have you been over imbibing the red wine again. Frank did warn you about it's effects ages ago. :D "outed" was probably the wrong term - what happened on the thread was a guy who identified HE as someone who had played the same silly games on another Forum and had been banned - just as Frank had been banned on here - only to emerge later with a new identity. So whilst we all knew who HE was - it was "fascinating" to read how another Forum had dealt with him. And yes - it may be the Rioja effecting my aim - but just as likely the lack of it 8-) (lol) (lol) (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peter Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 You would love it down in Spain Clive, you can get a Rioja for as little as 68 cents a bottle. Just think of it you could get ratarsed every night for less than one Euro. Just shows what a rip off wine is in the U/K. >:-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliveH Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Yes - I know Peter - one of my ambitions is to actually visit and explore that region - we have done most of the classic areas of Spain - though I am sure many places we have "skimmed over" - but one area in particular that we have never done is any of the regions to the south of the Pyrenees to the east of Santander. We always got off the ferry and headed West as we love the Picos de Europa. The wine is still good there with a great selection we do not see in the UK ! :-D - and not expensive :-D :-D :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
