Well no-one has emailed me about this topic, so we only need consider public replies. I believe that so far, it's a big fat ZERO as far as those who want me to stop posting (and are prepared to say so) are concerned. (Paul - xxx was one of the few who I thought might be a candidate, but his post says otherwise, which I'm grateful to him for.)

Thanks to everyone for their support. So far it looks like Cha - sorry, Mr X is more-or-less alone in his opposition to my presence here. It's almost enough to make me feel sorry for the car-hating PoS.
