......despite me and mine ? Oh dear. Now we're inventing and jumping 'shadows'. Entering fiction as fact into the thread to try and further your case doesn't make it true.

I could produce a plethora of 'watch this space' and 'of this I have little doubt' punch lines, and, if I say them enough, occasionally I will eventually get some calls right. I still don't understand how you don't seem to grasp how self indulgent so many of your posts are. Look, many of us were big Skyhooks fans. Doesn't mean we took the words to all of their songs literally.

By the content of your last couple of posts, you're already suggesting/expecting to be given a wrap if the SP goes up in the weeks/months ahead. (as it likely will).. Why ? Shouldn't you then have been apologising ad nauseam every time a 'watch this space' type comment of yours over the years wound up being proven incorrect ? You make out like Japan has been your only inaccurate call.

........We're getting away from the main point.... My initial post today wasn't about how often you get something right or wrong. As I have stated many times previously, your input to these threads is probably unsurpassed and your posts on many occasions have no doubt helped a considerable number of people.

It would just be refreshing to read your thoughts for an extended period of time, minus the self-aggrandising tone that permeates many of your posts.

Is that too much to ask ?
