    Nicely put DS. Subtle. Caring. Non-offensive.

    And several other words that don't resemble your post at all.

    The personal insult added weight to the request I thought. No ?

    I take it that

    (a) You know him personally

    and

    (b) He's smaller than you.

    Actually, information has just come to hand to suggest that he's actually closer to 7', and as well as his many Mr. Universe titles, he's also a black belt in several styles, and eats Shaolin monks for breakfast.

    Run for the mountains!!!

    As Im running Ill just drop Shalin Monks liberally in his path and find a small house to live in....
    ...a 7 foot Mr.Universe won't fit inside will he !?!

    Basil obviously wasn't there on Saturday...now HE would have got space.

    Come on, leave the fox alone - he's already got someone's hand stuck up him to make his bits move, so it's asking a lot to expect him to type perfectly as well!

    Anyway, surely the Forum (like life) is enhanced by variety - let's not have any typeface fascism!

    And if you can't read Basil's messages, jump past them - you probably won't miss much!!!

    John,

    Surely that's some sort of fascism against people who write posts who don't have much to say. And we wouldn't want that here either. Least, I'm praying that we wouldn't (I have a vested interest here!)

    UPPER CASE

    (REPEAT OF ANOTHER POST)...

    WELL FOLKS IT ALL STARTED WHEN I POSTED A MESSAGE ACCIDENTALY IN UPPER CASE (WAS IN A HURRY). IMMEDIATELY GOT SLATED BY SOME PRAT ('CHOOSE 5TYLE OVER SUBSTANCE' OR SOMETHING) SO KEPT GOING IN CAPS JUST TO BUG 'EM. I AM REALLY A FAN OF ALL LOWER CASE, SPECIALLY FOR INTERNET BASED STUFF.

    I WAS THERE ON SATURDAY... ACTUALLY.... BUT WASN'T WORRIED BECAUSE THERE'S MORE ROOM NEAR THE FLOOR. AND VERY NICE VIEWS UP THE DRESSES TOO! JUST AS WELL THE HAND UP MY JACKSIE WAS HOLDING MY EVER-READY MEMBER IN SITU!

    THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT JOHN S- A TRUE FOX LOVER AND ANTI-TYPEFACE DESCRIMINATION.

    I'm pretty sure I met you Tramp, but certain parts of the night are vague (got a bit boozy). Peace to everyone by the way (even those who post in caps!!).
