          I just saw this and thought - yes this is something I'd like to know and I think it was well answered by those who knew.

          The petulance displayed by the questioner was unnecessary and clearly they were not brought up with the ethos that manners cost nothing but can 'buy' you an awful lot of respect and favours going forward.

          Glad that poor manners as well as spamming etc will get a ban.

          Good for you mods!

              My mum says brocolli as brocoLIE not LEE, it's really annoying in a childish kind of way

              Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

              Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
