Now I am in a cold sweat (I kid you not about this, remember the golden chef is away at the mo) what a do, I say to myself, right, in to Cora.....I spy a box of  Curry Poulet, it's mine, get in the basket you beauty I speak again to myself, much to the amusement of a couple of giggling schoolkids.

Paid up and was on my way home to fulfil a need brought on by bluddy Katie.

In it went, it says only 3 minutes on the box, so time to dig out the Mango and anything else that looks like it goes with an Indian.................no jokes about Custer please

I've had bleeedin' hotter Cheese and Onion flavour crisps...............I feel cheated and now I have to dispose of the box or I am brown bread if she sees that yuk in the house.......................

Believe it or not, that is all true.

Frankie Valli, Meeeeki. [:D]

Grease is the word

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard

It's got groove it's got meaning

Grease is the time, is the place is the motion

Grease is the way we are feeling

Nice one...forgot those words, me memory has dimmed !!

Many moons ago we went to see Grease at the New London Theatre, it was recently re-opened at the time (restored ? and no idea what it's called now) and Danny was being played by none other than Richard Gere.......thought you might like to know that, forgot who played Sandy though............

I agree, the initial poster does not own the thread however Admin

and mods do get a significant amount of complaints about posts going

off topic and one of the points raised is how difficult it can make

searching for information. Sometimes posts are static for months, then

are bought up again and something pertinent added. If there is a lot of

light hearted banter in the middle anyone searching could just give up.

How

about seeing if the forum administrator can add a button to the reply

page where the poster can click whether their topic is conversational

or topical?  The administrator could then create a setting for all

conversational posts to be deleted after a period of say one month. 

This would allow the topical and conversational side of the post to run

it's natural course, but would allow the posts to be eventually

cleansed of conversational posts, leaving just the topical information

for searchers.  It could also be programmed that conversational posts show in a different colour than topical posts, allowing rapid viewing for people who want to follow the topic until the posts are removed.  This would also mean that mods do not spend their time

stifling banter between members which is a key element in creating a

friendly environment.

Surely, banter in a thread (within the agreed limits of good taste) is exactly what creates a friendly environment.

Lifes too short to be serious, all the time...............................[:D]

Or how about we use a personal,  internal button we all (almost all [Www]) have which is pre-programmed to "Apply Common Sense"?

Oh sorry, that idea was an exercise in irony wasn't it? [:P] 10/10 [:D]

I've just received a marriage proposal (based on my foxy looks) in the burglary thread, which has so far stayed (roughly) on topic.

There is potential for much merriment there. Bixy is a newish member and my not answering him may seem unfriendly.

What should I do?[:)]

Would that be the first forum wedding?

I always think of Bixy as female... mostly because I was once good friends with a cat called Bixy (a 2-Weetabix-A-Day Kitten) and she was as she. But Tresco's Bixy ([8-)]) may be different. Not least because s/he isn't a cat.
