Stop blathering No one said £1.00 notes, you can have £10,000 in notes be they £5.00 £10.00 or what ever denomination. But you could have a numismatists or a notaphilist whose collection had 10,000 £1.00 notes |

Malcolm, the very first posting in the thread ....

OT Grammer question
Top posting because sooooooooo many people fail to observe the suggestion that dross should be snipped. You've been down the thread once to read what was said, why cover the whole lot again? Kindest regards Mike (I do accept that posters on here will have a poke at me at every opportunity and it gives friends of mine who don't bother to break into the clique a damn good laugh. Please carry on. Hope I have not set the speakers too high for you to) --------------------------------------------------------------- www.rneba.org.uk "Malcolm" wrote in message ...

Malcolm, the very first posting in the thread .... Not specifically pointed out. To what degree do Spelling and Grammar matter? ;-) Hardly at all, provided the meaning is clear and, above all, unambiguous. Neither are heinous crimes, unlike top-posting in a thread! -- Malcolm |

Mandy Rice Davies had an answer to that Malcolm Mike --------------------------------------------------------------- www.rneba.org.uk "Malcolm" wrote in message ... In article , 'Mike' writes Top posting because sooooooooo many people fail to observe the suggestion that dross should be snipped. You've been down the thread once to read what was said, why cover the whole lot again? A very feeble response. But then you're afraid no-one will take any notice of you unless you try and defy convention, which is the action of a loser. There's always a case for trimming, but none for putting the answer above the question. Top poster Top who? Top Who's there? Knock, knock -- Malcolm |

You know very well that he does it because the clique don't follow the suggestions of snipping the dross from their posts. I don't need the attention thank you very much, I don't have anything to advertise ................... yet.

NONE is singular, something the BBC and other media seem to forget. Bill |

Me make a spelling mistake. I've been doing that all my life, why change now? I have a habit of using double letters when single are required and single when it should be double. I remember in school having essays back with "Good composition, must learn to spell" nothing has changed. David |
