Hi SaltNPepper,
I'm sorry I haven't responded earlier but I must have missed your reply to my posting. As another member has suggested, I haven't stayed at either of the places you mentioned. I am sure they are perfectly fine resorts.
My savage response to your posting was made because, at the time, I was feeling pretty irritated at what I thought was yet another one of those semi-advertisement postings by someone with a vested interest in a particular business. These crop up regularly to promote a restaurant, villa or driver, etc. The rules of the group state that the forum should not be used for advertising.
I thought that if someone (e.g. me) totally bagged the restaurant, villa or driver, being advertised, this could discourage use of the forum by businesses wishing to advertise via the back door.
I guess I am no longer of this opinion. My posting certainly caused some comment but advertisements will still creep through. I apologise if I have caused personal distress to you.
In your posting you say "Otherwise we might catch up when you stay at the Masa Inn in June" I am impressed at the level of research you have done to track me and my movements down. However I hope that my explanation will make this meeting unnecessary. That is unless the phrase "Otherwise we might catch up when you stay at the Masa Inn in June" is a euphemism for "I'll send the boys around to sort you out?
Cheers, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
