    Thanks gents, feeling a bit more comfortable now - until the next race.... Seems like the holes in the cheese lined up this time by doing well with the tail-gunners - and that was with only 2 correct predictions I hope Romain buys a Euromillions ticket this week - awful crash to watch. Bad news about Lewis - number 100 will have to wait for next season now, so he'd better get that contract signed Pete

    Gents, please bear in mind that the written word is all too easily misconstrued sometimes and I'm sure no slight was intended by any post on this thread. However, responding by attacking the poster isn't the way we go about it here, either. Be polite to each other, please...... Pete

    Correct - and some more posts will be removed.. Pete

    Relevant - and re-posts of the one that cause offence - deleted. The original post contained some indisputable facts but was marred by its later content. Please exercise some restraint here, folks - plenty of other places for expressing political opinions, thanks Pete ps The post was reported by someone using the button - it's a better way than just complaining about the mods....

    Posted by john stones 1 on 16/11/2020 17:20:09: Zero predictions, Bottas scored zilch...again, so pretty happy with 121 points. Congrats Lewis, mans a serial winner, how many titles does Pete B hold so far ? Well done Pete/Gary. Believe you me John, I'm assuming nothing - that race, if anything - proves why..... One correct prediction only..... Very well done and congratulations to young Lewis as well - that race wasn't won because he had the fastest car - it was wisdom, skill and experience what did it! A thoroughly worthy 7 times WC Pete

    I believe Matty has acted with the best of intentions here. I cannot speak for the BMFA, of course, but I don't see anything here that would be considered contentious or breaching copyright. Indeed, I would hope that anything that disburses information from the BMFA would be welcomed by them. I'm sure that Andy Symons will raise the matter with us if he considers it an issue Pete ps That link is to an open web page and not password-protected - I did not need to log in to download it.....   Edited By Pete B - Moderator on 16/11/2020 17:00:59

    Welcome to the forum, Fabricio - please note that I have translated your post above as all posts must be in English, thank you Pete

    Lockdown is still a couple of days away and you're already having a pop at each other! Apologies to those who have tried to keep this thread constructive but it was inevitably going to degenerate. Such threads demand a disproportionate amount of moderator attention and we inevitably end up displeasing someone. The BMFA has published its recommendations for flyers. I would suggest we are guided by those, rather than expend energy looking for ways to get around the government's decision. FB, not here, is a good way of getting frustrations out of your system, I would suggest.... Locked - and we'll have to keep locking threads if you can't be nice to each other, so please think before posting. Thank you. Pete

    Well done, John! Could've done with Max finishing the race, that's for sure - but there again, I bet that's what he was thinking too... Pete

    Phew, today's result has once again got me out of the DRS zone - unlike the Eifel glitch result Chris was getting a bit too close for comfort..... Great to see some of the older, more traditional tracks being used. I know Portimao is only 12 years old but I love the up-and-downs and gravel traps Really don't enjoy the sterile, neatly-swept modern travesties of race-tracks introduced in the past few years. Let's hope they can find room on the calendar for the classic tracks in the future Pete

    Nothing I can add to that which has already been said.... Pete

    There's been a lot of water under the bridge since then - don't hold up your build on my behalf! Pete

    Er, sorry, Martin - no further progress with the DH60 to report. It's boxed up waiting for the day...... Seven years - wow! Pete

    I believe the forum software will resize your pics to fit the page width, Tosh, whatever size or resolution you make them, so we might just have to put up with your pics filling the post.... A few years ago, the problem used to be that we had to reduce every pic to fit the page before uploading them - the auto-sizing was a real advance and I'm not sure the techies wouldn't appreciate being asked to unroll that Pete

    Bad luck, Charles, that must have hurt! Great score from Robin and, just for once, most of the holes in the cheese lined up for me. However, after his last lap, Danny Ric is now OFF my Xmas card list... Pete

    Yet another thread moved to the appropriate section. Please check your Inbox for a PM I sent you on 31/7, Tosh.... Pete

    I'm not too familiar with the subscrioption side of things but I've just checked and indeed you do not have a number. On the accounts page the help numbers listed are UK: 0344 243 9023 International: +44 1604 828 748 Meanwhile, I'll draw Beth Ashby's attention to this thread - she should be able to help. Pete

    Click on 'Subscribe now' in the banner heading, then the 'Your Account' button in the top right corner. That will give you access to update your details.... Pete

    Folks, I'm sure many of you will agree that we've had more than enough threads about the legislative situation. I believe the OP was hoping to discuss the availability (or otherwise) of the traditional modelling materials and equipment we all knew and loved..... Can we just try and stay on that topic, please? Pete
  22. Pete B
    Might be this thread, fb3. Otherwise, putting 'cherub' in the search box throws up several possibilities... Pete

    Posted by John Tee on 07/08/2020 23:07:22: While doing my predictions tonight I had a look round the site and see that I am classified as a rookie. Presumeably due to my dire record. Something else to try and improve on!!! Have we got any high classifications members not just higher than me? John Seems we are all classed as rookies if we don't spend any money with them. You're in good company! Pete

    Believe me, Allan, your wish list is unquestionably shared by all members and mods and has been for a long time... I understand that, some time back, the forum owners looked at an updated package but encountered insurmountable problems in migrating the archive of posts and material across to new architecture. There is a huge amount of information in the archive which we would not wish to lose. Unfortunately, to use a phrase which has recently appeared in the Press, 'it is what it is' - and is likely to remain so for the foreseeable future.... Pete

    I've just deleted a post that was prolonging the bickering - enough is enough.... Pete
