Oh, and people are allowed to digress on threads .

It's all part and parcel of forum posting.

Desiderata · 27/08/2007 23:08

Well, harps ... it's a kind of subjective place to be

ScottishMummy · 27/08/2007 23:09

indeed as is noting it and responding appropriately to unnecessary deviation

JodieG1 · 27/08/2007 23:09

erm wasexplaing the typos on my post so what's the problem?

harpsichordcarrier · 27/08/2007 23:10

er why and where is Jodie digressing

Twinklemegan · 27/08/2007 23:10

Wasn't Jodie just apologising for bad typing?

Twinklemegan · 27/08/2007 23:10

lol at X posts

harpsichordcarrier · 27/08/2007 23:10

yes indeed desi thanks for noticing I have been on holidays
away again tomorrow to stay with franny

fick · 27/08/2007 23:13

Absolutely Scottish Mummy, except you have made yourself look like an arse, whereas Jodie was explaining why her typing may have made herself look like one. Note the marked difference.

harpsichordcarrier · 27/08/2007 23:14

fick do I know you at all

Desiderata · 27/08/2007 23:14

You have a good time, harpsi

fick · 27/08/2007 23:15

None of us IS dumb, btw

Not that "dumb" is the word you ought to have used. You certainly aren't without speech, Desidorata.

Desiderata · 27/08/2007 23:17

.... I guess it's easier to spell 'fick'

fick · 27/08/2007 23:17

I dont think so Harpsichord.

Fick by name, not by nature is all.

harpsichordcarrier · 27/08/2007 23:17

I do know you don't I fick ....

JeremyVile · 27/08/2007 23:17

None of us IS dumb?

harpsichordcarrier · 27/08/2007 23:17

well fick is a great name, though clearly ironic

fick · 27/08/2007 23:19

Yes, JV. Look it up.

Desiderata · 27/08/2007 23:19

JV

Was my grammar being corrected by fick?

JeremyVile · 27/08/2007 23:20

OK. Where should I look?

Twinklemegan · 27/08/2007 23:22

Well said Doodledootoo - of course you're right, and dads with their babies are sooo sweet.

policywonk · 27/08/2007 23:23

'None: can be followed by single or plural verb according to the sense.' (Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors, 2000.)

I'd have thought that the sense in this instance demanded a plural, but hey ho! And, indeed, nonny nonny.

fick · 27/08/2007 23:24

Oh dear JV, I really haven't the time to educate you. Sorry . Another time perhaps?

I used to love watching my DH feeding my DD's too.

He'd whap out his gorgeous manbreasts and do his bit. Such a sight to behold.

It took him much longer, of course.

JeremyVile · 27/08/2007 23:25

With a Hey Nonny Nonny in-bloody-deed!!
