Wayne, and all Britdiscers,

I comnsider myself well and truly flamed, and probably deservedly so. My
original post to Britdisc was not, in hindsight, worded very well, and I
think was a result of the Monday morning blues. I really don't have
anything to say in my defence. I do believe in what I said, but I failed to
balance it all with the level of organisation that a tourny takes. And of
course, since I have never even begun to think of organising my own tourny,
who am I to whine?

I also find Britdisc is a place where it is easy to come across in a
different way that was intended. I deliberately post slightly opinionated
stuff on here, just to see what response it gets, but I think I went a bit
*too* far this time.

The Nationals was great fun, and was well organised (apart from bits, which
I should have seen as the more trivial bits), and I did wade into Britdisc
without full knowledge of the facts. 

Next time I'll be more rational and constructive.
