To be brutally honest I thought he meant I was 'pissing him' off or whoever has been doing the above but was too polite to ask if he was dyslexic/drunk or some such other.
Anyway to cut a long story short (but will tell on my MFS story, in FULL you naughty people) I am going to post on here our correspondences and let the world be the Judge on if I have done anything wrong and have in fact been passing anyone off which I do not feel in my gut I have by discussing door closers and floor springs, the wonderful inventors and the fabulous buildings I am lucky enough to get to work in through single handidly (I remind you all, although I have yet to see the benefits because of all the trouble you have caused me) creating this niche market (when of course I am not being bullied, threatened, intimidated, have so many calls, job inquiries, emails, spam thrown at me all at once to derail my day).
Edited the reference to the phone number myself.

(Here it should say "I don't know what passing off is nor do I know why he is saying your mad" but it has been removed somehow) As for common ground, we already have that. We are both skint, know a shed load about floor springs, have an interest in Bob Adams and we both know my number 0**********.

Ok Alan well I do appreciate you letting me know. My feelings are from a heritage point of view, B and Q may make plastic guttering that is functional and cheap, does the job and someone may have put it on the side of their stately home when their lead lined channel leading to some cherrubum's trumpet crumbled to pieces. But what do you think would better suit if you had the opportunity to use either?
From the customers point of view would you want to replace whatever with something that does not work as well or for as long?
From Earths point of view why wreck me more by making something that's already been manufactured?
And so on and so forth as I see it there are more pluses than minuses? I maybe biased but I don't even see many negatives, do you?

I never said I was related to Robert Adams i am an independant, a maverick, pain in the arse to some, lovable rogue to others. I am just trying to get by and do the right thing for as many as possible in as short a time as possible.

Not many negatives but the ones that exist need a little tweaking I'm sure once that is done think we can work together I'm sure of it . Both a dying breed but sure you can see from our point of view .as I said panic not for the min but would be nice for you to change it all as midlands door springs who then repair our springs. But that's just me thinking out side of box. As I said should really be speaking to you as yet but sound like a real nice guy .

All I have done is flip everything on its head and come at things from an entirely different angle, think of it as truly putting the customer first instead of just saying you do and walking away with their money.
If you don't want to be involved I understand I am not everyone's cup of tea I know that. I will have to find a way around not having access to parts if that is the case but find a way I will.

Lol its not what you said it's the implication of what you have implying which in law is passing off. That's all. Let me know your views on changing it as son gearing up to send solicitors letter which is crazy stupid in fact but it's he who will eventually own the rights to the robert adams legacy

I am in trouble for repairing and promoting something, I don't get it? We had better meet when you have time I don't want to purposely upset anyone that is not my goal at all I assure you.
I have an interest in more than Bob Adams though, looks like I will have upset Ben Turner, Andrew Smith as well, along with Mr Newman, Mr tonks, Joseph Bardsley, Jimmy Gibbons, Mr Cartland, Dougie Mole, Jimbo Hill, Eddie Showell, in fact almost every inventor, investor, distributor, manufacturer, patentee and more from here to Timbuktu and I still haven't finished!

Just spoke to my son. Any one who searches us gets you and that's passing off. I have been informed that unless you change that within two weeks we will commenced legal action. Sorry but it's like people searching you get me. It's passing off . Sorry but you have been duly informed. Please confirm that you will retify this issue. If not proceedings will follow. This does not mean you can't repair these springs just we don't want you passing yourself off as us .

Better still look up passing off in law . Two weeks we can either work together as I think you have a skill thst we could use or we can sit in front of a judge and let him decide with all costs associated with it. As I said don't panic but son just read me riot act .

In fact before i stubbornly dig my heels in and decide to argue/fight i am prepared to meet and listen to what you have to say, to see if we can come to an agreement where I don't feel like I am being bullied. I had that as a kid and i get a little techy about it. Because in truth i dont exactly know how i got where i am on the Google, over and above what i think. If your honest with me then i am reasonable. I will leave it with you and hopefully we can chat tomoz. I now have a shit night ahead because of the worry so lol hope your foots sore!

No problem with meeting with you but will have to be after my son and I have seen our solicitor. My son is just keen to protect the hood will of the company name that we have used for years that he feels you have jepodized. So sleep well panic not it will all come out in the wash. Talk after we have had some more advise alan

Dear Alan,
I have informed Google and linked in, my accountant, the Masonic Lodge on Queen Street via Onyx, I will also contacted the LLEP Gateway folk and will discuss on my blog of your concerns. I am not a solicitor obviously but the way I see it Your Ford. You have made some fine vehicles and have done for years, I have a little garage that repairs all the old makes you used to once manufacture. I like to blog about not only the cars you once made but those produced by Vauxhall, Toyota etc because I work on them all, unfortunately you chose not to. I think your stance is out to stifle free enterprise because your saying I can't talk about the Escort, the Calibre, the Camry and I think your wrong to do this, it seems unfair to me. Now if you want to tell me you work at Oxford University and take out the words 'use me' and come at me on a honest level playing field then fair enough but if not and you are all about smoke and mirrors i have had enough of all that rubbish and we will not start out well. Fear not, I may go easy on you yet and just my opinion.
Interested but not intimidated

Enough said you will be hearing from our solicitors in due course.
Edit: I had a struggle posting the above, my main computer the key board has stopped working yesterday and I struggled to write the above as I normally do so had to dig deep and find another way.

Dear Alan,
You did in fact threaten me, you threatened me with commercial war but wouldn't that be M.A.D? See what your asking me to do, I cannot, I cannot stop talking about Robert Adams, because I will be bringing to my Blog the Robert Adams "Cushion Victor" Pneumatic Silent Check Spring Hinges, the Robert Adams "The City," the Robert Adams "London Victor Sykes," the Robert Adams "Hurricane Victor," the Robert Adams "Diadam," The Robert Adams "Gem," his 4 spring 11 inch deep model (Do you know its name?), I may go on to discus Robert Adams other achievements, his tin hat and his collaboration with the War Office, the "ERA", his fan lights, the buildings his wonderfully inventive mind helped ventilate and keep secure.
I may go on to discuss his coming to London at an early age a little like Dick Whittington (without the cat) and possibly me, I may discuss his off spring I may go on to discuss many things!
See I believe dear Alan that it should be shame on you because if you do have all the things you claim then you should not have kept them in a container, there mechanical, functional, marvels and I would have more use of the things you claim. It shouldn't always be about the money my friend.
As said you still have chance to be reasonable and come at me as an equal and may I remind you, you are going to spoil my business blog making me post your threats on line.
Kind regards

Unfortunately as I have said before, he could have come at me open and honestly but I believe greed/jealousy has got the better of him (just my opinion of course).
You still have the option to work with me as an equal Mr Percy and I will take this blog section down or do I have to tell everyone you have burnt your foot/ankle with a boiling kettle?
