Dave Ryan can be a somewhat mercurial character who can take a bit of getting used to (a bit like Mike Hickling from AB), but I've always got on well with him (and Mike). This whole episode seems very, very strange.
Kein Plan überlebt den ersten Kontakt mit den Würfeln. (No plan survives the first contact with the dice.) Baron Mannshed von Wreckedoften, First Sea Lord of the Bavarian Admiralty.
Only spoken with him a few times, at shows, but always seemed OK. Got the impression that he maybe doesn't tolerate fools well. And tbf, the customer in that spat got on my nerves a bit too.
Yeah, if you act like a dick Dave will treat you as such. I have known him since he was dahn sarfend and worked for him occasionally and this guy must really have got on his wick to elicit such a response.
