Joined the forum a few days ago, got an email from one of the guy's called Neil Campbell.
He asked me to write a short piece about my fleet for an item they call "your cars"
So I have and emailed it back.
What would be of interest here would be he loves Marina's and particularly the Sun Tor!
Done my little bit for the Marina..... I'll get my coat

Well I am sure that would be a lot of interest for the new Press Liason Officer of the MMOC!

Oh thats ok I am already getting poked in the side by sticks from serveral people regarding it. Sure you don't want it?
I don't know - good grammar and enunciation and people think you're perfect press officer material. I did comment on my absolute lack of knowledge of Marinas! (except grills though ey Frank!

It's super sad I know, but in my head I have a red pen and I do correct all grammar and spelling mistakes I see.... on forums, papers, leaving cards, flyers.... my friend wasn't too impressed when I picked up on a mistake on the flyers she had had printed for her buisness and then picked up on a typo on another leaflet.....
I am aware this paves the way for the game "Let's see how many typos are in Sam's posts" although Jim is probably the only other person sad enough to play that! (If you are playing Jim I've put one in this post just for you!

)
Al I have taken a screenshot of that post of yours so I will possibly hold you to it!

Difference being I know sod all about Marina's in all reality!
I am a simple engineer who collects corrosion, and who can read a Haines manual. Which is much easier than any aircraft manual!
