eefoo I am well aware of the innuendo surrounding the joke-bot's postings.

Did you perhaps stop to think that I just felt like a directionless reply on the content of that particular post, rather than it being aimed specifically at the bot??

The fact you decided to start your two-cents-worth reply with 'one of the earliest members of TV' should probably afford me a little more leeway than you have given.....I'm happily playing without annoying any other kids - suggest you do the same.

Hey SeaVBurma....Nice! Spoken like a true diplomat.

Yeah was probably a tad harsh - just showing off my wonderful skills in diplomacy.

.....I'm such a people person when the situation calls for it

SVB - I must admit to being a little 'tired and confused' when I made my earlier comment! I hope there's no hard feelings. I don't use cents though, so my reply may have been tuppence-worth .......

ah no worries eefoo I snapped back a bit hard, also no harm intended...

The whole AltumAngel thing continues to intrigue though....

cheers, SVB
