If you read this come on back Ash we need you!

Couldn't have put it better myself.
I thought people on here were better than to do stuff like that. Sadly it seems not.

JamesH:
Right, before this gets out of hand (without full disclosure of the conversation) can I suggest we temper the feedback a little.

I totally understand the sentiments and intentions here and I'm the last person to be telling you guys what to think / say / do.

I regard Ash as a good friend of mine (we talk regularly outside of the forum). I'm also aware of the conversation that had happened and personally I think Ash took what was a well intended message (but fairly poorly articulated) to heart and took objection. He decided to vote with his feet which is fair enough and his prerogative.

This is just my view - and it's none of my business really.  But, I honestly think the PM wasn't intended to  be seriously malicious / upsetting to Ash.

Anyway, I really do hope Ash returns to the forum in his own time / when he wants to. He's a superb guy, has a wealth of knowledge and is very generous in his support of others (me included).

royhall:
Well said James. But I do think whoever sent the PM, well intentioned or not, should apologise so they can move on. Ash is one of the institutions on here with a wealth of knowledge that will be sadly missed. It wasn't my intention to start a witch hunt, just help Ash to get back on here.

JamesH:
Roy I totally get it and equally I hope they get it sorted and we see Ash back here in time. Good luck with the bomber project if you take it on - I'm sure you'll do a superb job with it as with your previous restos...

steff750:
