As I answered you before Vanoonoo it had nothing to do with the quote you presented I said NO and I meant NO.
Who is SHE you refer to ???
I have seen this book quoted many times on this site. ::)

Yes there should but that is being precise. You must not criticise grammar. Pat does not like it :-[.

I was just voicing my opinion and I apologise if you didn't like it. Sometimes your posts seem a bit 'agressive' and maybe you dont mean them to. :-/Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0 -

I respect you have your own opinion pat but I find it difficult when you cant seem to accept other peoples opinions with the same grace.Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0
