Update: The majority of scarves have now been sent out. Whilst a small residual amount is still to be packaged, I will pass these on to the post office first thing tomorrow. Additionally I have taken measures with the post office to obtain bulk post sender confirmations - essentially these are certified statements confirming the address details of each individual that I have sent a scarf to. I really appreciate the kind words passed on by RM members in this thread. However would hope that no one gets banned as a result of previous comments. As I've said before, the lack of recent updates could have understandably upset people - and without knowing the nature of my absence may have assumed the worst. I do not think that anyone would have made such comments if they had known the circumstances. I think this forum prides itself on openness and freedom of speech. With this in mind, people are entitled to say what they like (be it positive or negative towards myself). I think if we start requesting bans for this reason, then it would be to the detriment of the site. I would like to thank everyone for their thoughts, messages and (now given the circumstances) their understanding. All the best, Jon
