The one that was in SButt and which now says it has been moved. Stingo was helping Jim to a little extra free advertising of the sale of GR but nothing more than the usual oblique methods of mentioning that a boat is for sale. I last checked it this morning after Stingo and tcm had posted overnight but attempting to access it now gives:

Yes I got the PM but it's been a bit hectic recently and I haven't yet got a round tuit. It will be my top priority tomorrow.

Cliff posted a stupid comment, and I asked for the thread to be removed.

There ain't going to be much left on TOP if stupidity is a reason to remove threads. But seeing you have the power Jimi, could you ask them to delete the Belgian Red Diesel, and anything vaguely to do with Hot Liquid and/or RYA certs?

I'll leave that to you , my concern was purely selfish where an idiotic and totally untrue comment from someone who has neither met me or ever seen my boat could potentially prejudice an interest in its purchase.

No, still can't believe, given the amount of total garbage there, that idiocy and lack of veracity gets a thread pulled. The mind boggles at what anyone could say about a soap-dish AWB that could be derogatory or detract from its value. Surely someone, other than Jimi, must be able to put us out of suspense.
