Sorry, thought I had replied, pos just busy dealing with a knocker: Never certain if all was supposed banter, hard to tell. Mouthed off and lost, mainly as he was totally wrong. Also totally out bantered. My way, should not try to dish out, if you cannot take all and more back. Apart from that, why now. All has been peaceful for a while.
Apparently others have more worries than me, keep off my back and there is not a problem.
I spent the day with my mum and never expected the preverbial, who needs it ?
Hopefully, some one will get out of bed on the right side in the morning.

Re: Apologies!
Get rid of the dislike button in my opinion, if members do not like apost they can ignore it having the dislike button even pressed in error may cause problems for some.
Marion, all the dislike you sent I have put in a parcel and it will be with you shortly.

Re: Apologies!
Having hit the button twice by accident , I would love to see the back of it , or if it is an immovable part of a set , can it be renamed , maybe " Sorry to hear that Mare " button .
I found a setting that enables me to not see posts from some sources , and thereby find the site more enjoyable ,
We do sometimes get rudeness to each other , excused by the remark , only banter , in any group there will always be people who think their opinion is more valid than someone else's , all criticism , wether by comment or a dislike button just fires them off into a bigger garbage pile , ignoring them works so well

Marian, re your question about thongs reminded me of the singer with a lisp, 'There's a Thong in my Heart".
