Hello, Fanny
> I really didn’t think that I was ‘shouting you down’ SD.
Oh not you Fanny, it was a general comment, not just of Gransnet.
Sorry if you thought I meant you. You're alright Fanny.
And although you insist that you weren’t telling folk how to post I still think that your initial premise was somewhat proscriptive (date format etc).
Well, yes. I tend to feel that tight, formalised structures give the best results, that if one has a free format then things can be all over the place. Like if song lyrics are written so as to rhyme then the result is better than if not.
> You were dismissive of previous, existing Night Owl threads, both mine and Lemsips.
I did not know of most of the Night Owl threads - I think that I had seen your thread some time ago as I seemed to remember it when it was mentioned.
I was not intending to be dismissive, more that they were of the time when they happened, so I tend to consider that unless it is a matters arising say, reporting the result of something that had been in the future at the time of the earlier thread, then it is better to start a new thread.
> To be honest, I can’t help but think you are being somewhat mischievous SD
I don't doubt your honesty, but I am not being mischievous, that is not my style at all. I know that my views may not be always liked by some (many?) people, but I do always mean what I write. I have sometimes been accused of trolling, but I have never done that.
> Anyway, you just ignore me and carry on being ‘lively and proactive’.
I will never ignore you Fanny, you welcomed me back.
Have any of you got all electric cars? Pros and cons please.
