Doesn't need the full stop after the question mark; it's assumed.  I can ask him if you want a wrestle? :grin:

We don't need spelling and grammar perfect posts but they do need to be legible. It makes it easier for people to read and understand what you've typed. It also means you're more likely to get the help you're after than getting the sh*t ripped out of you.


....I couldn't agree more.  :happy2:

I knew it was you from  the second you came back. It is impossible to hide your personality  :innocent:. Please keep your toys in the pram this time or at least threaten us with words we can understand.  :grin:

We have a fabulous language and the use of punctuation only accents the meaning (or drama) of a sentence or phrase. Trying to write a sentance, or even a single word, as you would like others to read it is not easy but with the help of a coma or even a full stop makes all the difference.

I blame the youngsters today and their "text speak". I often receive illegible text messages from one or other daughter with no idea what the message is.



Sentence :wink:

I'll get my coat!  :sad1:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
