Apology

I was talking to one of the foreign dealers at the Warsaw fair and was reminded of an old post here. When I came home I checked it out and found that it was unnecessarily rude about a member of the family of the executive director of the ACCG. The post was badly-written and clearly went too far, I was obviously having a bad day that day. My quarrel is with the ACCG and what it stands for and not with people unrelated to the organization itself. I have now edited that post removing the material concerned and two others which make oblique reference to the post.

I would  like to apologise sincerely to Doris and Wayne Sayles for the tone of that post and for neglecting to look over it and remove it earlier.

I am seriously concerned and care deeply about the matters about which I write here. I do have a rather irreverent attitude, sharp tongue and inbuilt arrogance which sometimes leads me to make comments on aspects of these problems in a way which some obviously will and do find offensive. I make no apologies for that in itself, but if there is anyone else out there who feels I have overstepped the mark when describing something they said or have done, please let me know (through the comments section, marking it 'not for publication' if you like) and I will see what I can do about it.
