How did you manage to get back on PP? Was it to do with the recent amnesty?

We got the long brass tube that was under the Mantle piece when we took out the Yorkshire range, we bought some rockets from the corner shop and proceeded to fire the rockets (using the brass tube) that were aimed at various targets including our old school. :pow

It has been very heart-warming due to the very welcoming comments regarding my return, unfortunately the predictable two had to post their usual unpleasant comments, I just hope that Neil this time takes action against the perpetrators and not the victim.
Once again many thanks to those who posted the welcoming comments, Val & I would love to meet as many as possible if you're in Cyprus when we're over in June.

OK, I've been following this thread and not fully understood the nuances. And that's probably why I don't understand this (what I perceive) under-current of animosity towards Bassman.

I understand he was banned. But there was an amnesty. And now he is back. Fair enough.

Given that there has been an amnesty, shouldn't we forgive and forget? And give Bassman second chance?

KP,

Reading between the lines - I get the impression there has been more than one amnesty in the past ;)

An amnesty is an amnesty. Why can't certain individuals appreciate that?

Um, this will be his 5th chance by my reckoning. Bassman, Bassman63, Peer Gynt, Val, now Bassman63 again. Have I left any out?

Makes you want to throw up , who in their right mind would want to welcome back someone who has been banned so many times ?

Pp is the most easy going site around , so why does baseman get banned so often ?

You have to look for the common denominator namely two members who have already sniped several times.

The true common denominator is the very kind welcoming posts by many members to them I owe a debt of gratitude. :clap

Well said :clap The owner and the moderator on the site have given the amnesty. Why not trust their judgement?
I can't see anything that Bassman has said so far that can be classed as objectionable, and am sure if left alone
instead of being attacked will "behave" himself!

Val is much prettier than me as you can see from this shot taken in December 1966 in Limassol when she was just 19.
