It appears Mel Holland feels the other place has been more welcoming to her! (yes really!!!)
I am going to reiterate that any comments on this thread to my mind have been solely down to the choice of location, nothing against Mel and nothing against wild swimmers, I wish her every sucess with the event I just wish it were somewhere more suitable, (the Bure maybe??)
Obviously though its none of mine or any other NBN members business....especially if your not a local and or a boat owner......we are all just pesky medling kill joys who have nothing better to do than think we own the place and spoil everyone elses fun......
I am putting it out there again that had this been a Northern river event then her reception over there would have been quite different.
Hornets nest springs to my mind but if they feel like they are improving their image by scoring a few points then I say leave them all to it!
Appologies if I need to be modded but I or any other NBN member is not being done down by them, we may disagree but we dont hold grudges.
