Richard, you started your quite negative personal evaluation of the other poster by calling yourself his friend, and at the end, you signed "loadsa love". Tut tut... not nice. Can you see why? The other poster, obviously, did not enjoy your company. I would not either. It was his absolute right not to have a beer with you and keep his distance, mostly that he had a family. You sound like someone whose first priority is to have fun. There is a season to everything... It's OK to have fun. But this can't be imposed on others who have other priorities. I stand with the other poster.
