Default Goodbye Zoomer

Sadly we have lost yet another of the more knowledgable and reasonable voices on this forum.
Another person tired of the slagging off, bullying,and B!tching that some people on this forum see as valid contribution . I will miss his enthusiasm for casting techniques and wild fish from wild places, (and his run-ins with Frank).
Damn shame!

That is a pity, he is a nice guy and great to deal with. I enjoyed reading his posts. I hope you will reconsider and not let the odd numpty on here drive you away!

Alan aka zoomer is a very nice guy who has so much to offer the forum and will be sadly missed I'm sure ,,,,see you at the casting club Thursday nights from next week ,,,and may some people start to see their effect on others and change their ways.

Hopefully he will pop in from time to time.

I hope that the BFCC will link up with the guys up north and it will be my real pleasure to meet him.

I too stopped posting for a long while until Mr T said a few kind words to me.

I always looked forward to Zoomer's posts.

Ha! He'l love this post He got tired of some of the arguments and nonsense....seems fair enough! Corky - what do you want to know? I know said locations of mr bond

Granty - I was in the same boat as yourself. And it will be great if the bfcc things gets sorted out, really looking forward to it. Unfortunately I'll be out of the country for the first one but in subsequent visits it will be great to meet everyone! I'm going to have to do a lot of work on the competition side of things though

Who're all these casting gods? I've never seen them

I just don't get this whole "leaving the forum bit".

I enjoyed Zoomer's contributions and that of others who have been and gone but, come on, what can anyone say on an internet forum that is so painful you have to leave ?????????????
