I will admit that my reference to visiting Reizand's workplace comes across as a threat. I meant to imply that Bob is keen to "talk to him". No aggression is implied and I apologise to Reizand unreservedly for what I can only describe as very bad wording.
To clarify the situation, and put it to bed as far as I'm concerned, Reizand voiced his point of view with regard to his bad experience at Cobbleacre. I didn't have a problem with that and voiced my point of view referring to my good experiences, more or less to give a balanced and objective point of view. If you read through the threads, Reizand decided to attack my view and made everything personal. I don't have an axe to grind with reizand, I don't even know the guy, but I didn't feel there was a need to attack me. Rightly or wrongly, I retaliated.
I stated in an earlier posting that Reizand appeared to have a complete downer on the place and I went on to say that I respect that. What I don't agree with is making ubsubstantiated accusations against an individual, unless you can back up your statements with hard facts, and I'm not talking log cabins, fish stocks and the like here.
Reizand...I apologise if I've caused offence, but you have more than played your part in all of this. Bob is still keen to talk to you on a one to one basis. He says he is prepared to apologise for the incident that took place between you and his father and will do anything he can to put things right between the two of you. All he wants is an end to the accusations and I don't think that is too much to ask. I also apologise for implying a threat, I genuinely did not mean it that way.
That's an end to matter as far as I'm concerned, except to say, give Bob a ring fella....you have nothing to lose and possibly everything to gain.
