I have a begrudging respect for you Wonker old bean.
Unlike many BASSA members you seem to seek different views from different sources; your continued presence here suggests this to be the case at least.
I don’t agree with your position but I hold the belief that you cannot rationalise someone out of a position that they didn’t originally rationalise themselves into in the first place – I think therefore there is hope for you yet, you may still be talked round
Let's hope we all win eh...
