As stated earlier, the list has been recently updated and everyone on there had answered my PM asking if they wanted to stay on the list or not. Or have subsequently been added. Where there was no reply the names were removed. Can't do much more than that...... |
Andrew, your maintenance of this register is appreciated.
I was just trying to present the other side of the coin - the requester / the viewer. I believe the service is a worthwhile one to offer.
I'm happy that I haven't made any wasted journeys and I think I did something useful for one person with a limited budget, whom I saved from making a much longer one.
Unfortunately, time isn't always on one's side and some people have unrealistic expectations, or are prepared to abuse the system. As you say, that's a microcosm of life.
Regards
Robert
