Maybe I am wrong. Maybe he was/is a bad, bad man.

My comment about those who worked for him was based on the impression I got at the Chiswick workshop when a call came in from "the Guvnor" (on the phone). But it could have just been a bad day.
I don't think he is a bad man and I didn't say he was, as you full well know. However, I have heard from numerous people over the years who have been on the receiving end of his vitriol. He had quite a reputation for it on some circles. Setright resigned as the BOC Bulletin editor because of him!
As for keeping BCL going, I think it's wonderful that he did, a great achievement, but he didn't do it for us, he did it for him.
