You're right badeye, it's difficult to gauge how people take things in text. Because it's not like a vocal conversation where one can interrupt the other speaker and clarify things.
I think you're pointing at the fact that we don't need censorship and too right we should be able to say anything about anything at all times.
I have made a real mess of things several times, especially yesterday, but I think I've cleared the air by just keeping talking, Nadine is very cool (I know that's an overused word), but it's true and I could have made an enemy instead of a friend. (If you you didn't see that thread check out the guys on bebo)
that is me acmecorp,nadine b(nadine2 on chordie) and les davies (boxer).
I also think that sometimes you have to make allowances for youth (and I don't mean that in a patronizing sense, we all had to grow up)
You of all people, do not need to apologise for anything, I've never found your posts to be anything but informative.
And yes everyone else, I realize that we're way off topic, but there's no apology for that because I've suggested an alternative.
Stay cool, your friend
