Forgive me for doubting the authenticity of Garabi army.

Forgive me for doubting the authenticity of Garabi army. 

After Chris's opening post in his most recent thread, I can completely understand why the majority of members (including myself) are now treating anything he writes with more tham a little sceptimism.  But why lump poor old Ken, a.k.a. "Garabi Army", into the same category ?  He has visited Chris and reported back with enthusiasm : what possible a priori reason is there to doubt his word ?

** Phil.

....... and on what basis do we trust it? Has to be said Phil, as a relatively new member, I would have more faith in a similar feedback from yourself or another 'trusted' member. The whole thing smells worse as time goes on.

It appears that this has become a personal battle between people, influenced by other threads, rather than a debate about if Chris & his recipes deliver.

I have followed a couple of Chris's recipes to the letter and I'm a better chef for it.

Whilst I agree there has been some nonsense and unecessary threads, the truth is in the cooking and until we have all cooked a dish from Chris's recipes were in no place to comment if he's the new curry messiah or bleating crap.

The Moderaters need to tighten their grip and nip these personal battles in the bud when they occur to maintain the focus of what this forum is all about.

I'll dismiss anything thats not contributing to the goal of this forum without getting in to battle, but please give everyone a fair chance unless proven otherwise BS.

On the most fundamental basis of all, Ruby : in this country, a man is innocent until he is proven guilty.  Not only has Ken not been found guilty, he has not even appeared in court.  All  accusations levelled against him are superficial : "he's a new member, so he doesn't deserve our trust".  Well, I trust him.  If I am wrong in my trust, so be it, but I would far sooner be guilty of trusting someone untrustworthy than of failing to trust someone who is completely deserving of trust.

Too many emotive and unhelpful comments in this thread.  None of which can yet be judged to be valid with regard to the worth of the e-book content itself, as none of us have seen it yet, let alone tried anything from it.
The only person qualified to pass valid comment at the moment is Garabi Army.  And there's nothing negative in his comments.  So think on guys.  Maybe the critics should bear this in mind and wait a little longer before they start uttering more dismissive remarks and offering their "expert" opinions.  Far too often on this site, people are only to willing to jump the gun.  Any more discussion on this topic is currently quite pointless, unless of course we ask Garabi Army for his FIRST HAND experience.
I do feel the need to add that maybe H4ppy Chris should carefully consider the content of any future posts and perhaps spend more time on getting this book completed.  Such posts as the last one are no help to anybody.  For want of  a better expression, it is now time to s***t or indeed get off of the potty.  That way we can all get on with what this site is about - cooking BIR food at home and stop this constant bickering.  My rant over  :

Sort yourself out, Goncalo has not replied  : and my invite to Goncalo stands. If you want to doubt Ken thats up to you!

So let's get that vital second opinion.  Goncalo, I am happy to contribute
