Morning again.
I must stop meeting myself like this...

I hold to my statement that the weekly prizes should only be earned if you post over a certain amount that week, just to keep the forums busy, so a winning review or cheats would still be chosen based on merit, but to be in with a chance, the winner should also have to have posted 10 individual posts on General Chat, web/technically or Gaming forums.
I get shot down for those sort of Requests though, but the staff can't complain of the forums are dead.

Afternoon all ... Happy 1st Day of Spring :¬)
Also 'party tea' soon ... eldest son was born at 7.31am today ... and it was snowing!!
Lovely sunny day here, so far. His brother and daughter-in-law + 'soon to be born grandchild' (got two weeks left) will be arriving shortly. Let the party begin :¬)

I don't particularly like Addicting being used in place of Addictive these days, but it seems to be accepted use. Language is adaptive, English particularly so.

So you DO care? That's awesome, personally I couldn't care less about the torch passing within a few miles of here.

Sorry Chas. With all the testing we have been doing this week, I'm in full spelling pedant mode.[/i]
Pedantic, eh?
WEEELLLL...... Here goes! (deep breath)
1) Jewish ancestry... colloquialism equal to "I should be so lucky" and the likes...
2)American English, and now an accepted form of the phrase, often associated with continuations such as "if I were dead"....
3)accepted written format, used by such authors as Stephen King, Stephen Donaldson, James Herbert....(that's English AND U.S. writers...)
4)BOTH versions are accepted and accredited in the English dictionary, originating as far back as the mid 1600's in many English speaking cultures...
Just thought you might like to know...:-)
edit...
Just in case you missed it, I'm one stage worse than pedantic, I'm obsessive... Sorry Butch!:-)
