This amuses me! I am constantly picked up for my inaccurate spelling, it often takes me a couple of re reads to catch them all.  Im sure people think Im lazy but its not the case! My strengths are in other areas..... maths and science and anything intricate with my hands. I agree english language is important but not everyone can have the same skill sets or passions!! Im an engineer? Maybe more too it ??? 8)

My spelling and grammar is not exactly perfect but I do try to make an effort.

There is good banter on here sometimes just some people can't seem to handle it.

The price of the Gti has fallen, the only reason I bough mine was because I could afford to pay for it with cash.

I had a bad experience with getting a car on finance years ago, I was ripped off by a used car dealer the timing belt snapped 3 months into ownership (it was supposedly done by the dealer when I bought the car) and I could not afford to repair or replace the engine. I still had to pay the finance company for the next 32 months and the dealer had a tough s**t attitude.

Sorry.

 
... or has this forum gone completely f*cking nuts recently?! Has everyone been drinking as heavily as I have?

Apart from the Edition27.5 threads it seems as normal as it has ever been to me.

And Scott beforehand, then his alter ego Stacy. Strange goings on.

Is Scott no longer on here then?  What's the Stacey thing mean, have I missed out on something good.

^^^^ Scott has left us but undaunted by this setback returned as Stacy, a Scottish lady with the same car, 16" wheels and a liking for commas!  :laugh:

I missed his final thread but I imagine at some point he took offence to something and that was that. Bless him

Scott wasn't so bad. After our initial flare-up when I complained about not being able to clearly understand his posts, I PM'd him and we both revised our opinions of each other and had some degree of mutual respect. Given time, and if he had had less inclination to react angrily to everyone's responses to him he might have survived being gang'd up on, but he couldn't take it. There are some folks on here who are very good at dishing it out but not at all good at taking it when it's directed at themselves  :wink: - It's just the way that some folks are.
