TrapperJohn - a public thankyou

[Gollom]

Just wanted to say publicly what a thoroughly nice man TrapperJohn is.

Nothing is too much trouble and he goes out of his way to help others, a fact of which quite a few forum members are aware

:bannana:


The BEST forum!

 

[flango]

Totally agree top man is our John one of this forums true unsung heroes, nothing is too much trouble and him and his good lady have hearts of gold, and I speak from experience.

 

[developer]

I entirely agree.

At my first MB Club GTG of a couple of years ago, John, who I'd never met, except on the forum, greeted me as if we'd been friends for years - I've not forgotten that.

A top man.

 

[ss201]

Agreed. John is a true gent who will always help anyone out. I speak from personal experience, too.

 

[trapperjohn]

Russia John! (weather permitting, back sunday!)

(glad someone reads my Russian stories! LOL!)

 

[Charles Morgan]

I recall when I joined getting my first welcome from Mr T - probably because I mentioned buying a W124, but he is a stalwart of this forum and in person a splendid fellow in every respect.

 

[st4]

John and his wife Liz are all stars, feeding me and my mate numerous times and are decent people who are great to spend time with. Proper forum all star!!!

 

[markjay]

...and where the hell is SPX I miss his banter. I'm sure he will be back.

CHEERS

He's still here and posting as far as I can see? I'm sure I've seen a post from him yesterday.

TJ,

I came away from the 124 day last year feeling short changed that we hadn't met - something I had been hoping to do! Whilst I prefer physical gatherings to forum life, I feel "the kettle is always on" with you being here!

 

[Ian B Walker]

John does most of all the leg work here. AKA Yard Dog. Top guy and a very good friend. I only have one critisism of him. He will insist on buying crap cars and asking me to put them right.

You meet many people in life only a few can be called friends. John you are a mate.

 

[C240Sport97]

John and Liz rock

 

[del320]

Aw Shucks!



Liz & TJ

Some of them had their uses.
