Hi.

I am not a big user of forums and never have been (see number of posts on this forum), but was made aware of this thread by a friend who contacted me, and am replying as soon as i could have done.

After the meeting with Tony & Tom we (Andy & myself) asked Davey for financial information to be sent to us. This has not been done as Davey is in Wales to be with his father who is very ill.

When Davey does return and sends said information Andy & I will, at the first opportunity, go through that information.  But please understand both Andy & I have our own business' to run and cannot - and I mean no offence to anyone - drop everything to pamper to members of this forum.  We too want to see this resolved as soon as possible, and will do this as quickly as possible.

I must express disappointment at the way Trace has been treated by some posters on this thread, and appreciate Tokay's comments on the matter.  I as a trustee have not "Hung her out to dry", and resent that accusation.  It is simply that I do not sit at a computer all day posting on forums.

As for the subtle digs at me personally, I too have broad shoulders !

May I wish you all a Merry Christmas & a happy New Year.

Well that should calm things down a bit ...... Have a pop at people who use THIS forum, AND people who spend a lot of time at a computer.

Not sure if you could have come across any more pompous in your post.

Im Sorry to hear about Daveys Dad, and i wish him well.

[TightEnd]

So, just for clarification..we can with 100% confidence say that no one within P4E was telling Trace what to say, or asking her to post?

OK then.

Back to spending some time elsewhere on the forum, lol.....


p.s the word is "pander", not pamper.


Pomposity must be catching....

[ariston]

I am really sorry I spend so much time on the forums but I dont have a business to run, I am a poker player who spends maybe 14 hours a day online and uses the forums in between times at the tables. I will try and cut out this habbit as it is obviously wrong.

I agree with Kev on his post to an extent but I think he could be more pompous if he just put a little more effort in.

Thank you for posting and expect to hear from you again at some time in January (another 18 days or so). 

I'm off to pamper a panda now

That's the excuse I've been using too.

Of late though, I'm finding it quicker just to tell people that I'm a dodgy wierdo.

With respect sir, the very people that have given £30k this year to the charity are the people that sit in front of computers for hours on end, I know you didn't mean this to be a direct insult but I would have thought a little diplomacy would have been more appropriate.

Or perhaps a bit training in customer services?

I promised I wasn't going to post again but I feel I have to after what has been written.

I for one will admit there have been mistakes made, and we want to do all we can to rectify these and try

and answer all of your questions, but please bear with me, as you know Davey is in Cardiff his father is very Ill,

and I am at home with 3 young children. So I will try and answer these for you,

but as Tikay said if you can make a list I will try and get through these questions for you as best as I can and as quickly

as possible.

All the tournament expenditure has been posted on the P4C site, if you wish I can copy it here, just let me know.

As for contacting the charities commission you are well within your rights to do, they do have access to Game For Life accounts and will answer any questions you have for them.

With regards to Tracy, I'm sure she means well in her support of this situation.

Some people imply that it is Tracy that is being bullied, from where I'm sititng, it appears to be the other way round.

I made one post on this thread that was of no relevance to Tracy, then was PM'd by Tracy shorty after trying to intimidate me into saying nothing more on the issue.

I took this as a threat, and it was not well received.

Fine she has her point, and wants to make it.  But by being aggressive and overly nasty is not the way to do it.

Also by trying to silence others is very out of order.  Everyone has the right to an opinion, and to voice it.

People aren't looking for excuses, they are looking for real answers.To give answers you need information.

It became abundantly clear to me in the PM I recieved from Trace T that her information is some what muddy.

Hey, ifm, you have 145 messages, 10 are new.

Why me?

p.s. I hate this thread (and the other), yes i AM reading them

yeah i PM'd you 10 times because i was bored.

I have donated to P4C in the past, but I am not a regular and have never attended any of their events, so I have refrained from complaining on these threads.

However, after reading about costs and whatnot, I thought it would do no harm if I just made a few observations:


Jen and I always share rooms to save money. Surely volunteers of a charity can do the same.

I see no point for trophies at all to be honest. Does a winner of a chairty comp really require a trophy?

A buffet can be provided cheap, people need food, not a Ritz dinner. That figure seems unusually large.

What would you have me smash instead?!?!
