What happened to Ted's thread, it has disappeared, is it censorship already:praying: Peter

To prevent Miles thread being bogged down and taking it off thread.. continuing this comment from Walter So don't you think it's time that we made a change and was starting to be constructive when required. When we post a new thread showing our pride and joy, do we all want the comments? Or...
