Sorry folks, not trying to make a mountain out of a mole-hill.
If someone comes to me and says something along the lines of:
‘listen, I know such and such and if you do this and that, then there are consequences’, then I personally feel a bit uncomfortable.
If he had tried to explain exactly what he meant, then perhaps I would have taken a different view. However, there had been no attempt on his behalf, other than to say that words had been mis-interpretted by myself.
Once again, sorry if anyone out there feels that I’ve got the wrong end of the stick.
