Protest drive

[Guest]

Well what can I say .all I asked was for giving us a chance which is
only a month to go?
I was not dictating I was asking and I even said please`.
Well Pete many people in GLASS /CRAG /TRF & many others still want to
try and save what's left and they have not given up like some ,don't
knock them for trying eh.

Who's given up?? Just stating reality as I and a lot of others see it.
All I said was that a few vehicles driving the Gap on Sunday aint gonna make
one jot of difference either way - we're not going in a convoy of armoured
half-tracks. Being the last day there's going to be lots there anyway and
we're not going to change that are we?
And how can we leave it for a month if it shuts on Sunday??? :-|
I know what the situation is, CRAG is working hard in Wales / Shrops and not
much else. I & one or two others are keeping a close weather eye on a few
other places and we haven't given up there - others are working hard too you
know.

Pete I spoke up because your subject tile said PROTEST DRIVE.
But jokingly mate you make the grim reaper look like a saint sometimes
but some of what you say makes good reading ;-)

I will always give you a chance because I know how valuable greenlaning is
for us diesel- and petrol-heads - sorry if you feel that some of us were
over-reacting, I don't think I was - if you recall, I said that you have a
point, see one of my earlier emails. I don't want to cause any angst, and
I'm sorry that you feel this way. I work with BORDA and the Scottish Offroad
groups so I know where you're coming from.
The day out is not really (I don't perceive it) a protest. I think choice
of words should have been better!
However, I just also want to add that I'm involved (for my sins) with
environmental and conservation groups in North Africa, I know the terrain is
very different, but the same issues are mirrored all over. I've worked
overseas too, so I know what you have to do to maintain any kind of
homoeostatis - I'm with you Ray, and we are all aware that we have to tread
lightly. Hope this allays your reservations.
Kindest regards
Renate

Don't worry Renate.
I don't take offence I was just making a request for some help/slack .as
the subject tile gave me concern.
Thanks for your concern
