Re: locking a subject

The trouble with subject locking is that the admin has the last word which can have an imbalance with what the op is trying to get across so the op looks bad as a result. Such a shame . I think my point has been missed completely from the original posting but hey ho I did try. :D

Re: locking a subject

Re, post from Bowie69 that's another reason why I'm not renewing .With arrogant rants like that to a member who doesn't realize that I also had a pm chat with an admin. I'm not on any social media sites / forums but I'm told they can be very personal like this site can be . This is what I was hoping...

locking a subject

This is one of my biggest bug bares of this site and has definitely swayed my decision where as I was hovering. Some people should not be allowed power, deja vu Mike.

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

My expectations were obviously way too high, I just thought that my membership was worth more but what's one less eh.

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

Thanks for your input Matt I was hoping some one from my side of seeing things would put pen to paper so to speak. Its ok for those that are in a position to go to club meetings etc not everyone is living so close or has the time. As for speed reading, it is a well known fact that most people when r...

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

Yes they are fully paid up members. As for members attending zoom meetings to express their views not everyone is computer savvy or may be feel uneasy with speaking out negatively as it tends to come with stern views from those that are opposite thinking / views, I wouldn't want to join a zoom meeti...

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

As mentioned in one of my previous replies I appreciate that subs are needed in order to run things but my angle is value for money and I also appreciate that my view on that will be very different from some / others. I just want to see a way of justifying the £32 annually dues for the last few year...

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

But Shropshiremoggie you'll be getting very little more for the princely sum of £32 pound but I suppose its your decision and money . If I decide to fo go my subs then ill be no better or worse off it seems.

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

Ouch, you get out of a club what you put in, kinda was expecting that avenue to be thrown into the bowl. I read the list of "benefits " to club member's and that's why I'm considering renewal every year. Its usually 10% off items if your a club member so that's not much of an incentive and...

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

Ah right thanks for that woodiesenfrance and seeing as I'm probably not missing much then I might as well give it a miss as I hate faffing around for the such like . I like the simpler things in life and if it becomes a chore just to access various parts of this site then I haemorrhage interest.

Re: club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

Hi Les and thanks for your input. Like you said about the insurance side I found a cheaper company than the one recommended by the club although I was with them when I first joined many years ago but within a couple of years of me being insured by them the price shot up so I looked elsewhere and got...

club subscription renewal due, do I or don't I?

So its that time of year again whereby my club renewal has landed on the doormat and the same old question runs through my mind i.e. do I renew or don't I? With the cost at £32 what exactly do I get as opposed to being a non member taking into consideration the times when the site is down and I know...

Re: Dismantling the swivel ashtray?

If the insert is now able to swivel outwards then simply grab hold of the insert and gently pull away from the main body and it should come apart. If not then follow the steps given in the last posts.

Re: Dismantling the swivel ashtray?

It just simply pushes together to assemble and the reverse to dismantle. I had one that needed a bit of tweaking / cleaning a few months ago and wasn't sure how it came apart if at all at first .
