  1. Wonderful upload Dave. Gordon Cramer is barking up the wrong tree. I really do think he is suffering from sort of disorder. His paranoid behaviour is actually quite bad right now. Anyone who spends his life obsessing over a poetry book is very strange and odd indeed. He now thinks people are after him. This went up on his silly blog today.

    He is that paranoid that he is tracking IPs now. I feel for Derek Abbott the most. Gordon had pestering and annoying Derek with his odd theories for years. Perhaps your his next obessesion. The truth is Gordon is a lonely old man that creates microwriting himself with the long term goal of trying to make a dollar. Every business venture he had fails. He is currently selling brick o brack on a stall at the market.

  2. I think that Pete Bowes is losing it. (Or his page had been hacked by trolls) He is now commenting under loads of different names (talking to himself). It’s Xlamb I really feel for. She had been through so much and shouldn’t be subjected to this. She is being manipulated really badly. It’s a shame nobody can talk her about the ID card etc and Robin and the Jetty.

  3. I’ve personally never had a problem with xlamb. The only thing she needs to do is cut down her posts. They are far too long!!!!!
    Also she is completely off topic. I’m glad they arrested that evil bastard and I’m hoping she finds some relief. Good idea about showing a copy of her ID card to your Gran. Thanks for the email too Dave. I’ve been researching ship records all day.

    1. If Gordon is or Gordon isn’t I’m not interested Sophie. But thanks for the link though. My only problem with Gordon is that he called me and my book a fake and took piss out of me on Pete Bowes blog. I then presented video evidence and then subsequently scans of the book using a scanner. I was forced to remove all my comments from his blog because so many people were contacting me saying he was a nut and a fraud. I’m trying distance myself as much as possible. I don’t want anything to do with him. Pete Bowes I don’t think is that bad. Some of his posts and articles are brilliant it’s just a shame you don’t know what is true and what is isn’t.

  4. I’ve always had the suspicion that Gordon’s micro writing story was a hoax and a fake. I never knew he had a market stall. It all makes perfect sense now. He must be a really lonely and sad. I’ve always liked Pete Bowes and his blog too. He gets a little over the top sometimes but at least he is honest that what he is writing isn’t true.

  5. Dave: I read somewhere that you have had your book scanned. I would be really grateful if I could have a copy. I’ve been studying the books for a few years now and would love to see and analyse yours. So… Please could I have a copy?

  6. That’s splendid Dave and thank you every so much. I’ve been following this case forever. It’s great that people like you are helping as much as you can after realising the potential connection. Sorry to hear about Gordon etc. I’ve always been under the impression Gordon is slightly unhinged. The micro writing stuff is a joke. It’s obvious he is making the images himself as some sort of long term agenda.

    1. Who knows Brian? I’m just confused by the fuss he made to prove my book was a fake ( before scans and videos etc). I came forward to help after realising a connection. I didn’t need to at all and could have left it. I hope you find what you are looking for when you analyse my PDF scans. Let me know if you find anything important etc and I can let Gerry and Derek know.

    1. Morag: I have never been approached by Pete etc regarding the things that he says. I initially commented on his site when I first came forward with my book. He dismissed me as a troll and started writing tons of weird stuff about me. He certainly has an imagination!. I’m looking to buying a copy of his book though. ๐Ÿ™‚

  7. I’ve always found Pete Bowes stories and posts very well written and amusing. He certainly knows what to write to push someone’s buttons. I am looking forward to his book too. I also like Nick Pelling too. Nick is a fantastic researcher and his content is always well written and researched. It’s a shame people like Gordon spoils things with his bizarre claims and obsessive behaviour. One researcher traced the abuse of xlamb back to him. For some reason he has such a hatred of xlamb. Xlamb is a victim and deserves strength and support not abuse and pain. I’ve never really taken much notice of what he writes but I was made aware today that he is known by other names. He had some sort of business on the Sunshine Coast that failed and he owes lots of money to people. Its terrible what he is doing to the memory of the Somerton Man with his micro writing that he is creating himself. Gordon is certainly not what he seems and has a chequered past. From an online sense I stay well away and I advise people to do to.

  8. I used to have a blog a few years ago but I closed it off because Facebook was becoming more popular. Gordon Cramer used to say terrible things about xlamb (Ruth Collins). He surely has some unusual hatred towards her. I had the troll problem and people being horrible about Xlamb and naming her etc. All the IP addresses were traced back to Gordon Cramer. Whilst I don’t agree with what some of xlamb says she is still entitled to an opinion in a safe environment. Gordon’s treatment of xlamb was horrific and unjustified almost predatory. Gordon is one sick man. I pray he hasn’t done this to other people. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ
