Sad bobtanian that you found it necessary to randomly post,

''So, one really realises,…. Yuk'' and letters 'basis'.


in reply to my apology for having put up six letters instead of five.


You were quick to post the words just little more than half an hour after I wrote the words SORRY

I guess that's why those who RR don't reveal their identity.


It's like being back at school!!

I don't do that game but a couple of the others - and they are full of light-hearted back chat, especially when one of us makes a mistake! Lavender, don't take offence, these twists are always jokey!

Hi Lavender :-)

Most of us who are regulars on the Quiz board have got to know each other very well, as we have been quizzing together every night for years.

We always tease each other when we make mistakes, always in good humoured fun, but because we are such good friends, it's par for the course, and a good laugh.

Of course, people who are newer on the Quiz Boards may not realise that it's in fun. Regular posters should be sensitive to the fact that a newer poster may not realise this and is hurt.


Please shrug it off and join us again on the Quiz Board, it's fun :-)

I'm quite aware of that, Jem. I love a bit of banter.

The poster in question hadn't been on the thread for 50 pages (I couldn't be bothered to look further).

I'm not concerned by little men!
