    and pray LR, what makes you think all brummies are sarky ? 

    Because I am one.  We are the sarkiest people on the planet.  It's part of our genome.  It's our humour.  So for me to say that to Hosta is a compliment.  It's a recognition of some very fine sarcasm

    Cos how can you be grumpy
    When the sun shines out your bum!

    What about people from Sark?
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    LauraR - if w.edges had been from Scotland, he could have added 'get it right up ye' to that comment. It's our great comeback in most situations ;)

    You were jumping to conclusions, that's you were doing.

    Being  a Londoner who avoids confrontation at any cost, can I come out from  behind the sofa?

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Yeah you can.  RB is now on my ignore list.  I can't be bothered with the constant sniping.  It's not what I come here for.   Apologies to everyone who feels uncomfortable about it.

    To be honest, if people are joking, it would help if you added this  ;)
    There's no need for niggling.
    Especially when everyone can just be curmudgeonly in a good humoured way  :)

    I agree with @Fairygirl.
    One of the shortcomings of the written word is that its original intention can easily be misinterpreted.
