I don't think it's possible secur...
it's one of the bad points about the internet, you can't ever really see things in context.

although agree... if anyone has any suggestions then bring them on!

maybe we should always assume advice is given in good faith and with humour, unless we are told otherwise?

Folowing my total over reaction to a post before Christmas, I now make a point of reading and re-reading my posts before I send them. It has in the past led to me changing the post slightly or adding an emotcion. Doesn't stop typos though
