I’m a firm believer in good english…not too bothered about the correct grammar…but I hate this text speak…if I do use abbrieviations it is only on my mobile and only because it might take two messages to send if it isn’t shortened

18 September, 2006 at 8:19 pm #241888some may be dyslexic. we do actually have a member who has admitted to this and we all understand his posts, and do not criticise him, as it is not his fault :wink:
dont see the prob meself. there are worse things about people than how they type :evil:
its the contents of a post im interested in, not how it is presented.
18 September, 2006 at 9:27 pm #241889But a post presented in a correct manner, tends to infer the poster is erudite, educated, and much more believable. :!:

Without wishing to be unduly pedantic Tiler, but conventionally one does not end a sentence with a comma. (See your original post).
Poor eyesight and wavy fingers, comma and full stop next to each other, often miss the right one. :wink:
