HJ -
It is not dissimilar to HDCC, where people have defined roles and when those people are not around, for good or bad or sad reasons, the wheels have come off their as well. Didn;t hear anyone having a moan when HDCC was unable to run a race because they had the wrong signs and so could not comply with the Blackhill TMP. It happens.
There were plenty of moans (and other things) I can assure you of that. You will hear these in the future with your new role within CD.
