Wolmargate

***Nigel Harris has published his views on Wolmargate***

Wolmar vindicated!

As if further proof were needed...

Zontar - "My Lord!"

Irony lost on them...

More excitement following yesterday's Mail on Sunday piece on the Peak Army.

The story has not played well with the die hard cranktocracy who have taken to emailing Wolmar in the electronic equivalent of green ink.

Copied to all their mates (Sid and Doris Bonkers) they contain a stout defence of their hobby and a suggestion that the story might have been a tad sensationalised.

Other writers have been less brave.

One scribbler chose not to cc his mates on the original flame-mail, preferring to forwarded it to a cast of thousands with the following preface: "Is is just me or has he got one of those faces that you would just love to punch?".

The Fact Compiler would like to remind readers that the original Mail on Sunday piece referred to trainspotters yobbish behaviour.

Some red faces this morning

The dangers of posting to the internet explained...

The Mail on Sunday's attention has alighted on 'flailing' and they have lifted pictures from the web.

Wolmar is to be congratulated for pillorying the idiots but making clear they are in the minority.

Not so the Picture Desk...
