Do I get the inference that I indeed was wrong?

Could you translate that into English, please? The quaint Yomerk
dialect is unfamiliar to the majority of your target audience.

Nothing is typical of Britain as a whole, IMO. That's one of the reasons
why gardening in Britain is so interesting.

Er, cool, dark, damp winters? Except for the Highlands and a few
almost unpopulated mountains, nowhere gets cold - and even in the
Isle of Wight and Torquay, it isn't warm. And the dark and damp
is universal :-(

Also nowhere gets seriously hot or dry, at any time of year. Even
in the worst 'drought' I have seen in East Anglia, there is
biologically available water only a few feet down. And, even in
a heatwave, the temperature does not exceed 40 Celcius. But there
is more variation in this than in the winters.

Nick Maclaren.

Methinks thou hast misspoken.

You may feel that is a bit stilted, or even that the word order is
inappropriate, but that is perfectly clear British English.

The answer to his question is "yes", incidentally.

I fear not, from your comment below :-)

Varlet, how can you possibly tell ? Only Harold knows if he "got"
it. Whatever it was.

Geddit?

OK. I cry "uncle". You win this round of pedantry!

Sorry, no. Following a committee meeting of pedants, Mr Mclaren
concedes the correct plain English translation is

"Does Harold understand the suggestion that he was wrong ?"

The answer to that is known only to Harold, rendering Harold's post
redundant.

nowt at all...but is in common with much other 'stuff' that is carried on

some...and here again....perhaps I am once again wrong!

Let me try to unconfuse you....memory is not as good as it used to be
but...I started off by saying something like....English folk being somewhat
ruder than I remembered them to be or words to that effect and ended up by
saying...'perhaps I am wrong' (this was written after seing so many rude
comments on this site).H
