ITYF that conversation was with Lady Astor and the beverage in question was coffee rather than brandy. Other than that, spot on. -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1 BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, TEAR#3 (and KotL), DS#5, COSOC#9, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
In uk.rec.motorcycles, AndrewR said: Ooops. I had a feeling it was coffee but had no idea about the Lady Astor. Cheers.
Tradition, mainly. Yes, but there will be other occasions when ending a sentence with a preposition leads to confusion.
Thanks all for the critique of the site. It was a simple request and not a call to action for a flaming match. You could have quite easily ignored the post rather than spend time slagging off a review or the site design itself. I didn't write the review, it was kindly written by a site visitor, no harm there I'd say. If I wanted professional reviews I'd pump money into the project and get someone to do it properly but it's only a "hobby" or "a bit of a time killer". So, please for the sake of other people trying to make a project a bit of fun and gain interest, just ignore a post if you don't like it eh?
Do you feel better now you've slagged my site off? I apreciate your comments but you really could have simply ignored the post and saved yourself some time (time that could have been spent writing a "correct" review) For someone that's just trying to get interest in his hobby by posting in what he thought would be a good place now knows that asking for something so simple is obviously a difficult task to others.
Nu fucking chance. If you can't recognise crap copy when it's sent in, you shouldn't be running the site. It's shit, and you're full of it.
And this nonsensical jumble of words shows *precisely* why you'd be better off... ermmm... I dunno, helping the aged or something.
Graeme wrote I say old boy, do you think you could do what is commonly referred to as "sorting out your fucking attributions" and give us just the teansiest clue as to whom and what you are replying. The usual convention is to leave a bit in, rather in the manner I have.
So then, exactly when did you realise you were born to be an editor? -- AndrewR, D.Bot (Celeritas) Kawasaki ZX-6R J1 BOTAFOT#2,ITJWTFO#6,UKRMRM#1/13a,MCT#1,DFV#2,SKoGA#0 (and KotL) BotToS#5,SBS#25,IbW#34, TEAR#3 (and KotL), DS#5, COSOC#9, KotTFSTR# The speccy Geordie twat.
What do you want help with?[/QUOTE] I had earlier asked for people to submit reviews of their bikes at my website. Harmless thing to do but it would appear you need a degree in English otherwise you'll get kicked to the floor and stamped upon....repeatedly
It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Graeme Simpson Oh just **** off - you're selling mobile phones, bike accessories and t-shirts and will soon be charging for classified ads. Don't pretend you're doing this for our benefit. It's a commercial site, thinly disguised as a personal one, and what you did was effectively ignore the group charter about advertising commercial undertakings, which makes you a spamming ****. -- Dave GS 850 x2 / SE 6a SbS#6 DIAABTCOD#16 APOSTLE#6 FUB#3 FUB KotL OSOS#12?

No - just an ability not to write in the electronic equivalent of purple crayon. Oh, and as someone else pointed out, we don't like people trying to plug their commercial sites here.
