...isn't it just encouraging fighting between posters, rather than just debating the subject up for discussion?

As well as driving me totally round the bend.

hmm

What's a slaphead grin? In fact, what actually is a slaphead?

(If it means bald, I'm not going there)

"Err - a grin like you have to type in to get that particular emoticon"

That's what I meant, HollyD - didn't get what you meant, that's all.

We've got a laugh smiley! What d'ya think this is tbgrin?

I replied

Err - a grin like you have to type in to get that particular emoticon (can we have a slap head smiley as well please)

See how confusing it gets when people don't quote what or who they are replying to (can we also have a whistling emoticon as well please grin )

There, it's official, the colour is rose! Which is a lovely colour [but then I would say that.]

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 25-Jul-14 14:25:39

I think it could be called "old rose". Rose, I think, is lighter and brighter.

Ok, I can live with with that [as I am an old rose] the official colour is old rose.Even slightly faded rose.Ashes Of Roses? I don't want HQ to change it.I shall start a campaign to reinstate it if they do. Just for the hell of it.

Lighter and brighter? Oh, I wish. grin
Especially lighter.

rosequartz Fri 25-Jul-14 21:32:35

Why are my italics not working - has GN banned them, or has Jingls put a jinx on them?

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 25-Jul-14 21:36:44

I think it is because you put other thingamiejigs in there (commas in the air - you know) #gettingsleepy

Perhaps the ^ ^ thingies can't cope with " " thingies inside them IYSWIM.
