Don’t IMDA have their own forum?

Yes but it's a closed shop apparently imda members only

So under current restrictions the shutters are down because their words are restricted goods and non essential

As much as I like what they are trying to do I'm not a club type person member

The only club I'm in is the one that means my beers cheaper I'm afraid

Same here, I wasn’t even in the scouts! But each to their own!

You have to take your hat off to both Jim and Umesh. I mean, they don't have to do what they have done and continue to do. I certainly wouldn't be arsed with it. There are not many in this trade who have my full respect, but these guys do.

Just a shame Jim no longer posts on here, maybe now that certain posters (who bizarrely had beef with the IMDA) have rightly been asked to leave Jim could get back on the pitch.

Thanks again for the feedback @sparky just trying to help anyone/everyone in the industry that we love, we're all the same we all have so much experience that we can all share and help each other with, I just wished when I started in 1997 there was help /support/forums and people that could have helped.
