  1. Thing is @husoi is it does put some people off contributing. Makes them feel intellectually inferior which spelling and grammar is no indication of. So is Portuguese your first language? It just reminded me of the time I wrote a note for my son and used the wrong ‘your’ The next day the teacher came running out of the classroom after me with a sheet in her hand. She explained I’d used your rather than you’re (I do that a lot), why it was wrong then handed me the piece of paper.. which was a ‘fill in the gaps’ homework sheet on the different uses for you/your/you’re. I looked at her assuming it was a joke to see a dead serious face who was seriously concerned my absent minded use of the wrong ‘your’ might tip humanity into further chaos. I failed contain my laughter at this poor woman’s priorities, she desperately wanted to know what was so funny so I simply said “I know the difference but normal people don’t care” Oh man I felt bad, her little face crumpled inward, she really thought it was that important and she was doing me a huge favour. I took the sheet, saw her the next day and said I’d had a look at the sheet and thought it was very good. She was very happy, I guess some people’s world orbit around the little things.
  2. Looking alright so far for Sunday ️
  3. I have to ask were/are you a teacher or examiner of some kind?
  4. If I didn’t know any better I’d think you didn’t want TOTY? Would the real six pls step forward...
  5. I don’t understand, is this the sort of thing?
  6. You can switch your brain off and allow a free fall of gibberish onto this site, it works for me and a lot of others here too
  7. That is pretty damn swift Fingers crossed it goes smoothly, reckon as the numbers are going down you’ll be ok Regardless of the sometimes scathing things I have to say mainly about the way the NHS is run I’m actually it’s number one fan (secretly rather proud we have something so marvellous) and for things like this it does and amazing job. You’ll be in good hands. EVERYONE STAY IN MIKE HORTONS WIFE NEEDS TO GET AN OP
  8. Jeez wot is it with u guys and the spelling thing? If you know what the other person intended then who cares. Yes some words alter the meaning and you have to check what the person really meant but generally it makes no difference. Its like 1950’s school teachers are hovering to mark your work!
  9. I should add that backlog accumulated over a much longer period than one month so you should be dandy on that score
  10. The whole thing is stressy enough without not knowing if you’ll even get the test. My sons driving test was cancelled back in April and when he got his new date in September the back log was so enormous we were told it maybe months before a retake would be possible. Fortunately he passed but it does add some unnecessary stress. You have my sympathy, it sucks.
  11. So longest conversation on a welcome thread occurs when the person being welcomed doesn’t appear on it? Put your money on what happens if he turn up here...
  12. Waiting for the op today or waiting for a date an op?
  13. He mentioned how lovely, sunny n warm it was in Andalusia so many times I started wordering if @XTreme was Henry Cole secret alter ego
  14. I’d be interested in a test ride. Like the stats, not so keen on the looks.
  15. Walked through a waterfall in Knox waterproofs and didn’t get wet! Mind you they weren’t armoured trousers, they were just waterproofs so not a lot of use here. Good stuff though.
  16. Just double tap ‘Active topics’ in the top right of the screen.
  17. Got myself some lovely Mitas 09’s for the Himalayan. Have read the tubes the bike comes with are unsurprisingly rubbish. Are some tubes better than others? May as well get something good if it’s worth it.
  18. And welcome to Travis.
  19. Yer you looked normal before now you’ve gone a bit Royston Vasey
  20. Excellent work What happens after neat spirits?
  21. Sorry to hear that @fastbob hope having a break will be the balm you need. I’ll dip out now owing to not being able to offer any actual help!
  22. Ive already told you I don’t need anymore onions Another mobike however....
  23. He always uses stealth mode on the drug runs, no-ones told him he’ll likely get picked up cos the baddies always ride black motorbikes. On another note @XTreme what have you sent me? It better be good
  24. What’s happened my emojis look unblobby? I can actually make out what they are I feel discombobulated, it’s like the time the dot matrix printer got put in a cupboard!
