vanlink Posted June 19, 2009 Report Posted June 19, 2009 I would like to apologise to Jeremy for causing all this fuss over the one loft race, for putting him in an awkward position, for bringing any doubt about his character, for any thing that I have said that is unkind whether intentional or not and causing him a lot of unnecessary stress over the last week. It is easy to post things on forums for discussion but we must be mindful that regardless of that right, the right of an individual not be made uneasy or upset should be the most important consideration. Jeremy was clearly upset by my original Post, which contained statements, which were not necessary to make the point, and despite politely asking me to stop I continued, claiming it was my right to discuss the topic. I pushed him to do and say things that were out of character. I would like to apologise to Puresoontjen, Pete smith, for winding you up and saying anything you felt unkind during your defence of Jeremy when clearly you could see the injustice being done by me and perhaps others to your good friend and fellow competitor. I would like to apologise to any other person defending Jeremy. I would like to apologise to Jeremy’s Father Tim who although did not make any posts I am sure he was aware of what was going on. Yes I did meet with Jeremy Yesterday, something, which he asked for all along. When Jeremy makes that request for someone to meet him or Phone him then one should do so because I think that Jeremy prefers to communicate face to face. Jeremy explained a lot to me that through my immaturity and childish behaviour I had not taken into account. When you talk to Jeremy you realise what a clever, articulate and skilful fancier he is. Not only that he is thoughtful to other fanciers. He asked the club in which he races if they minded the one loft birds taking part because he needed for them to be tested and put under racing conditions and he said that he would just use it as training but the club was unanimously in favour of flying against the one loft birds and having the opportunity to test their own. He explained to me his reasons for wanting the One-loft birds to fly with other birds in races. He cares about the one loft racing experience for the members that have sent their birds in and he is keen to ensure that they get the best preparation prior to the main race. He also wants the main race to be both challenging and exciting. I would also go as far as to say that on speaking to him I could see that he has passion and puts his heart and soul into those birds, his own too. So for a fool like me to come along and challenge that….well its not nice. I would add finally that Jeremy is not only a Gentleman but also a real ambassador for the sport, I would have no hesitation in entering birds into his care, but I reckon a lot of you already knew that.

Guest spin cycle Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 seems jeremy is good at accepting apologies ( welldone vanlink)....but he owes (IMO) a couple to members for the other night....and another for a disgraceful thread about a member from liverpool.
