    "...I had a Committee man ring me in response to my plea to put the Industry
    first for once, and all he could talk about was an accusation levelled
    at him six weeks ago by Eddie Rigg, that this bloke was feeding me
    information and I was then publishing it...."

    Not sure why this quote on my above post (on my pc anyway) appears as only a line.

    Anyway, this is what I was commenting on.

    I text several but they usually don't have the courtesy to reply. In this instance the immediate phone call was about self preservation yet again and nothing related to the message. This more than anything else underlines the arrogance of this committee.

    In terms of who talks to me, members of the committee would rank amongst the least. I have far more interaction with members, staff, media and more.

    It would of course matter if my opinion was valued, but for several years, this committee has painted me a raving lunatic to everyone from The West Australian to the recently retired Minister of Racing. So why do they even worry about what I say?

    yep, having to go to IKEA makes me angry too Damo...   X(

    The solace I take is that after visiting, I'm never short of a pencil for golf.

    Don't forget the meatballs.

    I'm convinced Damien Wyer overstates his importance on most matters.

    I have never met the man but I'm guessing he was pushing the trolly at Ikea muttering "yes dear" for an hour or two.

    Had the meatballs whilst shopping alone. They are terrible. Couldn't find what I needed then took forever to walk out through a maze. Mothers with prams everywhere.

    Anyway I'm over the pettiness of this club. They can do whatever they like, just don't feel the need to ring me complaining anymore

    "They can do whatever they like, just don't feel the need to ring me complaining anymore".

    I'm sure they could mention this to Committee Members at the next meeting.

    Would it come under "other business"?
