Missing members
 
I just looked at a Bluey pic and Farmer John had posted on it originally, back in 2019. It was only then that I realized his absence- last activity was quite some time ago.

Also, Philthechill - I knew that he had some health issues, but he also fell off the radar some time back. Phil actually helped me professionally when I was looking at a hotel air chiller - He was dead right and accurate in the cause for failure. He made me look good!

I know that I have started such threads before but cannot be bothered to trawl through the lists to find them.

Also, Philthechill - I knew that he had some health issues, but he also fell off the radar some time back. He also fell off his bike with a ladder on his shoulder, we had a lot of fun with that post.

One of the best posters on "another site".
I remember his valedictory post which i read with regret.
Some former SN members may not be aware that Phil was awarded a medal for his actions in saving the
life of someone who had fallen between the ship and quayside in Glasgow(?)...... Into freezing dock water.
I mentioned it to him once in a post.....he just dismissed it as unimportant.

People like him always do..... don't they?

Alas there are several members from here and SN that no longer post. Guess they don't have access to the internet now !!!!

Am I the only one having problems getting into the BP site gtzx.org.uk ? I accept it could well be finger problems on my part. Kia ora.

kauvaka,

I had a look on the web, when I try the address you have given it comes up with - World Press - and to write a blog. Further down I found this
GTZX Homehttps://gtzx.org.uk › ...
Welcome to the GTZX web site. Problems, problems: The End of GTZX.org.uk? 29th September 2022. Over the past few months I have been trying to resolve .... Of course when you try to read more it comes up with the World Press. So I suggest there are major problems. Maybe one of your fellow ex BP members can help.

The incident occurred in Greenock and I have a report from the Greenock Telegraph somewhere. :applause::applause:

Does anyone have any info on Phil? He was of great help on a hotel air conditioner that I attended..... He was A-1 on the ball with cause!
