Nice one.

Just trying to find the person you wanted to screw over for a buck would be hard enough.

BUT I still have the right to name places to avoid "if I were you" as that still referrs to me. As in if I were you you would therefor not be you and so in. It's perfectly legal to advise against going to places, even to the proprieters face. No law against that.

It isn't that clear cut

If you actively limit the trade someone receives then they could in theory take you to court. At which point they don't have to prove you were lying, just that you have caused them a loss of earnings.

Don't get me wrong, i am ALL for it. I just happened to have looked at this previously.

OK then they would have to prove that they lost trade because I said "if I were you". Jesus there's nothing wrong with saying that and the law would not come down on me for it.

Oh yeah, If I were you I'd avoid Critters Cabin in Nottingham.

Exactly there was nothing wrong with what I said there. It was all fact and at no point did I indicate neglect as I still believe that wasn't the case. Ackies are known for missing digits. Simply that it was missing toes like the members OWN one in the post before.

the point being he had all his toes

No the point being there that it didn't. Jesus wept.

Nope, no pictures and that Ackie was a while back. Point was that it could happen to well looked after ones too. This one was missing toes and I had been in to the shop on Many occassions and had seen it. It's no longer there and a picture of any other ackie with toes proves nothing.

Still, I'm glad the place is looking a bit cleaner now there's some more local competition.

I'm leaving the thread.
