    Just had the following personal email from the above:

    " Richard thank you for your sarcasm. I am not do not wish to be and hope I never am a photographer
    and never ever intend to enter a CTC competition. I would be up against whizo boys who live and
    breath cameras. I do hope you realize your mistake in putting out such nasty comment on UK rec
    Cycling? You will live to regret your sarcasm I assure you. Keep your silly road and paths for cycle
    ideas to yourself please. Also if as THOUSANDS of daily visitors to my pages you wish to comment,
    you are welcome-but do not try to be clever-you will regret it. Best regards, John WE DO NOT HAVE A
    CAMPERVAN AS YOU WILL SEE IF YOU AGAIN VISIT MY PAGES.

  3. Hello, Richard Burton who has left the last message is a representative of the CTC. I my
    judgement not a very good example. I have no wish to associate myself any longer with the CTC.
    Kind regards, John.

    Steady on Richard. I think I've mentioned to you before that it's considered extremely poor
    netiquette to quote private e-mails in a public forum without permission. John's e-mail and website
    seem harmless enough to me - is there really any reason for the personal attacks (going both ways)
    both here and in the local cycling mailing lists?

    You sold it then John?

    I wouldn't get too irate about campervan jibes - you are *never* going to live that one down.

  5. I hesitated and considered long and hard before making a contribution to this thread, but ...

    I am sure that John may be a nice guy deep down BUT he does seem to have a habit of rubbing people
    up the wrong way - he has had numerous run-ins with people on this newsgroup before and on the
    Moulton (Topica) bicycle board too - perhaps his (John's) enthusiasm, and availability of time, make
    him a bit trigger happy on the keyboard - a variation on the old adage about putting your brain into
    gear before your mouth - but in this case the fingers.

    To my recollection John has "resigned" from newsgroups before ... having taken offence at responses,
    and vowing not to participate ever again - but then reappears.

    Perhaps he should make his mind up.

    The moral is perhaps for John to consider his responses before hitting the "send" button - and for
    the other newsgroup users to take the guy's enthusiasm in the spirit with which it was intended.

    Without wishing to appear rude, if I spot posts from John on this or the Moulton group I simply
    ignore them (although he does sometimes have some interesting stuff on ebay).

    If you are not interested in what he has to say or wants to share then you don't have to look.

    That way everyone can be happy.

  6. John,

    Given the provocative nature of this subject, I've just visited your web site out of curiosity.

    Can I just congratulate you on getting copyright clearance for the commercial images on your site.
    What? you haven't got any? Oh dear.....

    Have a look at the Copyright Myths on templetons.comcopymyths.html.

    Not to me Danny, but I take your point. I'm just fed up with continually being harrassed with
    irrelevant stupid comments from someone who seems to have taken a personal dislike to me, for what
    reason I know not.

    One of the points of putting his email on this public forum was to show that he appeared to be
    blaming me for some comments that I didn't make e.g. something about camper vans. He is now
    threatening me with reporting me to the CTC (oh horror!) for comments that I didn't make, when I
    made no claims to even be a member of the CTC, let alone representing it. I really think John should
    do a very serious reality check, followed by a return to earth. If he's ever made any useful
    comments, I've never seen them.

    I've kill-filed him now anyway, so won't be receiving any more of his wierd idiocies.

    cheers

    Rich

    Sensible advice, thanks. I have already kill-filed him on my personal email, as from now, I'll just
    do what most other people do, ignore him.

    Cheers
