    I thought you were about to tun into a pumpkin? :rotfl:
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    OK, confession time...how many other people thought I was a woman?

    No, I never imagined for a moment that you were a woman. Far too level headed. ;)

    Do you know, this had been baffling me for a while now but I was too embarrassed to ask!

    I'm generalising here but your posts show a certain sensitivity, empathy and reason that made me assume you were a woman but also a practicality and straight down the line quality that I associated with a man. Plus your avatar and knowledge of technology made me think you were male (I know, I know, I'm stereotyping). So, I've not been able to decide and so refrain from saying either him or her (or he or she) when mentioning a post of yours. You're ZTD - that's all I need to know!! ;)

    Perhaps you should run a poll and see what people really think!!

    You could always have PM'd me. People have PM'd me with all sorts of questions:

    I can understand the technology thing, but why the Avatar?

    Aw! I've come over all red and embarrassed now... :o

    That's been one of the nicest things anyone has said to me... :o

    I'm not going for the poll. Too much chance of being shot down in flames...

    I always assumed the almighty ZTD was above such mere mortal things as sex?????? :confused: (but at a push would have said woman due to avatar - have a strange habit of picturing all these lookalike avatars sitting typing at their keyboards...I really struggle trying to picture CAFCGirl, need to persuade her to get an avatar.

    (I obviously am v slim & fit due to all the running I do.......:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: )
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
