Please add names to comments!

Just a quick word to ask contributors to PLEASE add a name to comments.

I have declined to publish three comments so far this season that have been critical and/or sarcastic in response to other contributors or to the club. 

As regular readers will know, I have had my name and my face on this blog for the last 19 years. If I can do that, I don't think it's expecting too much of people to add a name - doesn't have to be your own - to your posts. It helps others to get a handle on who you are and sometimes is good to get a connection that could potentially lead to friendship. I've certainly found that many times! 

So please use a name. It's all about opinions and each is worthy in its own way. And while I appreciate the people can forget to add a name, add it in a second post if you forget. 

But please be assured I will not allow the blog to become a home for anonymous criticism. It's not fair on others, nor the club or to me. 

Thank you for your understanding!
