Received a lengthy and in places a moving PM from him on the 16th.
It would obviously be inappropriate for me to divulge the details but what I am comfortable saying is he explained his leaving was for personal reasons and other than that I've honestly got no idea for his leaving.
He did ask me to let anyone who was interested know that his sub skins would be kept available and the links maintained for all.
On a personal note, if he doesn't return I for one will miss the banter and the micky taking we shared, so often at each others expense.
STEED was and continues to be a 'good egg' in my book....a sad loss to everyone on this great forum of ours.
Sooooo.....if you read this STEED, I'm not going to stop punching you until I see you back on this forum.
Fair seas and following winds (but only until you return)
