wowowo its clelland! again...

[gross2006]

Gross your extract from Heather Monroe is correct as it is SE England and England. England is part of GBR or the British Isles. You might be right about the header but not this, if the event was in Inverness you'd say Scotland not Great Britain wouldn't you?

Hocolite

I don't have any problems at all with calling it England... it is in England....

[Joykok]

Let’s get something straight here Mrs H. It’s exactly bulljobby like that you came out with that makes Scots want to disassociate themselves from England so much. Because it seems so many of you lot live in your own little world with your heads stuck firmly up your “Watford Gap”, and think that Scotland is where you go on holidays or where it rains all the time or some crap like that. It’s about time that people like you realise that you live in Britain and that Scot’s put a hell of a lot of the Great into it.

Plus your next message reminded me of two historical occasions on Bannockburn, part of the rich history of The British Isles…maybe you should learn about that, or maybe you shouldn’t, maybe it will enlighten you, or maybe it won’t…

Well one was definately in 1314...... can't recall the other

[Mrs H.]

joykok - you've got exactly the wrong end of the stick - I would not like people to think they were coming to better terrain (i e Scottish) than they really are ( i e English). It could have been anywhere - even lithuania - it makes no difference but it is definitely not where the competition is taking place. You are the one who is hurling all this nationalist crap around not me

You can't advertise holidays of Torquay with pictures of Barbadoes

[mharky]

tyst nu!

The photo is being used as it is a good photo, and can help promote the sport.

Did you see the last cover of compass sport??? That does ot promote the sport.

I dont think the World Cup Peoples are saying, come to guildford, runu in fantastic scottish forests with clelland, they ar just trying to make a geekish looking sport look a bit better.

[bendover]

lets all be friends

[Mrs H.]

Fair enough Mharky - i can accept that - although I think it's a bit dodgy- I just don't like being accused of something I'm not guilty of, that's all
nice one Ben

[the duncan]

rule number one,

NEVER, I MEAN NEVER CALL SOMETHING ENGLISH WHEN IT IS CLEARLY BRITISH

(me and pazzer learnt this long ago)

OOH AAR GBR..

dave best, crakin fotografer.

awesome pic,
clelland, i'm going to pretend to be you and take all you loving!!

[Stodgetta]

I wasn't accusing you of anything you haven't done - just putting up a picture taken in Scotland at an event in the West Midlands to advertise the sport as a non-geeky sport. I think it's a great picture and should be used as often as possible to advertise the sport to non-orienteers as well as to orienteers.

You did take the bait well, tho'

[Mrs H.]

Well, actually i was talking about joykok

[Stodgetta]

You still took the bait well

I was particularly impressed by the

so there

[eddie]

to go back to the original topic there was an oversight with the world cup people in not crediting nopesport with the photo. In order to rectify the situation nopesport is now credited as a supporter of the World Cup on the website and a credit appears in the program.

thanks to both David and Chris for resolving that.
