By the way, yellow doesn't mean you're a scaredy cat. I just meant you'd mellowed....and the Donovan thing wouldn't have worked without the full song title.:D

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

I know it was his letter that inspired me to write the the Observer about this, but it was not my intention to have another dig at Jaysay. It just seemed the most appropriate thread regarding me...

I can't find it, but think you are probably right, but I don't think I posted in it.

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

I've done something I've never done before today, I contacted my M.P.

Ken Hargreaves once helped me with a problem years ago when I was at college, but that was done through my granny.

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

I was just being nosey and saw on Speedy's profile that he found Accy Web through the 'local press'.

That's at least one more new member.:)

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

The last time I wrote to the Observer, in 1981, I received death threats, so I guess this is a somewhat better outcome.

I've just received a letter through the post from John Farrer.

In it he...

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

I have decided to show mercy on those less fortunate than myself.

It was never my intention to enter into a long winded correspondence with Mr. Farrer via the letter pages of the Observer,...

If it was me, then I disagree with myself.:D

I was living in London then.

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

Strange how all these soft arse Tories aren't afraid to use the letter pages of the press to air their views, yet find the democratic forum that is Accy Web, to frightening and daunting a place.

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.

Yes I know, and thanks to some sterling detective work by one of the mods, he's still posting on here, but under a different name to Jaysay.

Didn't mention that in the Observer when he slagged...

Re: Greg Pope's accessibility.
