Eh?
What was that in aid of? Can't you handle critisism?
I was only trying to support Jamie and his concepts, so why on earth
you should sent me an email with that kinda reply is beyond me!
Did anyone else on this list get a nasty reply from Robert?
There was no smiley, so I guess he's being serious!!!
Oh well, I won't lower myself to his standards. If he wants to react
like that, I think he'd be better of moving to another list. I don't
have time for this kinda crap and I guess nobody else on this list
would either!
Robert, please don't waste my time with a reply like that. It's not
the kinda thing I wanna see....
To put everyone else on this list in the picture....I have left the
rest of Robert's email in tact, sorry to quote it all again, but theen
you'll see why I am a bit miffed as to why he sent me a nasty reply!
Grrr....
