  • Cheers all. On Holiday,  catch you at Santa Pod.                       Remember Mothers Day.

  • Not me, but I saw what caused it and is not behaviour becoming anyone on this forum in my opinion, provoked or not, everyone should know how to act.

  • We need the man back, he's a hero of briskoda! He is like a flowing fountain of knowledge.. He'd be severely missed by many!!!

Ahh right. Has there been an online spat ive missed out on?

Same I didn't see any outrageous posts

He's enjoying his enforced absence by touring with a family member on a new car hunt, and will no doubt come back refreshed from his break ready to guide more members...

 

Thanks - glad to hear he's OK.

 

Always enjoy his posts and look forward to his return.

He's enjoying his enforced absence by touring with a family member on a new car hunt, and will no doubt come back refreshed from his break ready to guide more members, as he and Keith did with me, down the right path to justice with Skoda UK. It's good that characters such as George are missed, that tells you about the contribution they have made to the forum and the respect their views are afforded.

Glad to hear hes alreet.

Know what he did wrong?

He comes across abit funny at times, but hes a top bloke once you get to know him n the forum wouldnt be the same without him tbh.

Wonder if he's coming back? As I've said to jack before, if i got banned by a certain mod i wouldnt be coming back, on principle.

Instant ban for you there :rofl::D

Lol. I wouldnt be bothered aha

I'm sure either myself or vrskeith will make him aware of his being missed on the forum, and that he will be appreciative of the support.

Yes, I do know the reason for the ban but it's not my place to disclose more of the man's business than he might want me to. I know he's helping a family member chase down a new car, and that it will be well spent quality time for George.

I haven't had any suggestion from him that he won't be back, as you say the forum wouldn't be the same without characters such as he.

As an aside, it turns out that although I've never met George and he lives the better part of 90 miles or so away from me, that our grandparents are from the same small mining village in Lanarkshire and once lived no more than 100 yards from each other. It's a small world indeed.

Very small world indeed!

His son works on a rig close to the one my mate works on too aha

He's fine. In daily e-mail contact with him - he keeps pestering me with requests to reply to certain questions in particular threads :).

He will be back with a vengeance ;) 

What's a couple of knee caps compared to getting rid of nasty troll? ;)

As long as he realises where he went wrong last time, and not go down that path again. :)

Two sides to every story no doubt.

 

Sometimes even the  police and Briskoda, can get it wrong.

George? Wrong? He wont have liked that... Haha

In all seriousness though. He'll have a field day on the twincharger threads when he gets back no doubt

He will be back with a vengeance ;)

 

Anyone know when he's back?

 

Brisky isn't the same without him.

21 days from approx. 16th Feb I believe.

But as Sittingbull suggests he is having a busy time domestically ,so our loss is his gain. Enjoy the breather George.(not the one on the twincharger - revised to oil squirter- mod )

Well, No we know that then I reckon we should get him fizzing.... We can start giving incorrect answers to CAVE engines and quote incorrect data figures, perhaps write an email to Skoda praising them and acknowledging that they are doing everything they can to look after its customers! That should get him scratching his eyes out  :angel:
