    Why? Are you concerned? Do you want to offer to do it for him...?

    He'd "like to see itching stoped" (See top of last page).

    I've got a mental picture. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Don't think he needs me to do it. He's got a harem, so he says.

    Someone once suggested I should stick a thingy below ...a signature...saying why I'm funny with spelling and clarity sometimes..but I think its funnier to pass my self off as a drunken ignoramus. :o

    I'd like to see itching stoped. Its ridiculous, what the hell are itches and what do they acheive?

    So true. I have a friend who doesn't stop itching, really bad skin complaints poor guy. The problem is that in this recession he is looking for work and the constant scratching is not a good look at interviews. I just don't knpw how to tell him, without making him really self conscious.

    I get lots of pms from nice people wanting to help me learn to write and spell properly. They are all very keen.

    You sure that's all they want? Your DH has had a word, hasn't he?

    Just a nice little illustration of your pulling power. Must be working with viva too. :D

    Nah, I think the attraction was that I had a car and she didn't (the lapdancer, not Viva).

    Sure it's not scousethife?


    Perhaps you could open a gentle conversation about people's unconscious habits; start out with Gordon Brown for example. Gradually widen it to yourselves - we all have them don't we - until it just comes out in a kindly and supportive manner.

    I'm quite normal. Can't speak for anyone else. My DH says it's unnerving hearing me tapping on the keyboard and chuckling away to myself.
