So what is it about Graham and people called Daniel?
I wish I could have posted this on Facebook but as the post was not in a closed group I do not wish to... Balloons are only one aspect of my life and most of my Facebook friends have no interest in the squabbles of the Balloon World
I just wanted to share my support for Graham and also my outrage at the abuse he has received just because he tried to support a friend. I think we all know that Graham is a fairly resilient character, so am I, but if someone questioned my integrity in this way it would cut fairly deep. The conversation currently on Facebook that appears to have become a post mortem into every aspect of Graham's character should never have become so... People should be very ashamed.
I don't think anyone could accuse me of being a member of the Graham Lee fan club. In fact use the search button and you will find that Graham and I have had our ups and downs in the past but I have always respected Graham and realised that everything he does through Balloonchat, C&S days etc are driven through passion rather than money-making motives. I think if they were financially driven he would have stopped them a long time ago but I sense he has such an emotional attachment to his creations. They are his his legacy. I for one will openly admit that if it were not for Balloonchat and C&S days I would not be the balloon artist I am today and I would not have some of the friends that I have today.
So Graham sells a few balloons... Good on him, they are great value and he gives great service!
I am a little bit befuddled as to what prompted the initial assault. Reading FB tonight I sense that an absent retreat has replaced the arrogance of the key protagonist. I just hope they now have the decency to make amends.
