Please don't lock or close this thread, that would be a form of censorship that is not required.
If members don't like what is posted then they can either respond and put forward their opinions or they can ignore the posts.
I know that there is a lot of repetition but that is only to be expected in a thread of this size, covering such a variety of sub-plots, spanning several years.
The saga may continue into 2018 and beyond, if it doesn't then the thread will die quite naturally without having to be euthanased on a minority whim.
Happy New Year to everyone
