    so....the sun is shining. :j but I also have a chimney breast that Ive bought wallpaper for in DDs bedroom. :think: Do I really want to be wallpapering on a sunny day? :think:

    No, I'll leave the wallpaper for another day. Thinking it might take me longer to clear a path to the wall than it will to hang the wallpaper!! Sunshine it is :)

    Have a good day all!

    Yes you SHOULD have posted this reply. I'm just sorry I wasn't on last night to back you up SB. DOn't ever apologize for your illness. It is up to others to learn, Hell, you've told everyone on this thread so they should know. :)

    not being pedantic....as if! I prefer the word condition :D:)

    Good morning all.:) I don't want to get bogged down in all this and got to go to work soon. Lightheartedly my thought is "...but will they be fine after my long explanation?":o. I apologise to anyone offended.

    Now, I should leave it at that since explanations often compound matters. Although no-one had expressly said they were offended, it's probably me failing to see between the lines and pick it up.

    I already gone to look at the definitions of "arrogance" and it's been a very insightful experience for me. I've now reached such a complex position that it would take pages to tell you what that is, and would also take us way off-topic of what this thread is supposed to be, so I'll leave it at that. For the moment though - probably just a short reply from me to something from earlier when I come back this evening.

    Have a good day.:):)

    It's a shame but you're right in that this thread isn't the place for that kind of debate. I too, SB, have looked deep into the self-confidence / arrogance debate. It can take you to places you never knew existed. Unfortunately, I always seem to arrive at a very simple lesson that I've learnt. It's almost like a Newtonian law or something along the lines of:

    It is OK to show people that you are everything in life, and brag about everything you have achieved, just not intelligence.

    People will thank you for pointing out their shoelace is undone - they won't for you pointing out their spelling, punctuation, grammar, mathematical error etc.

    Anyway, I'm stopping now before I go too deep! :rotfl:

    Thanks, FC. I have edited to reflect your wishes. Reading back it did seem better for the masses. :D

    I very rarely edit my posts as I like to speak from the heart so-to-speak.

    PS - I prefer a capital N at the start and only three dots for an ellipses before your 'as if'. ;)
