Strangely that wasn't actually what I was referring to but it could explain the sticky issue I'm thinking of, something of a Freudian slip perhaps. Might I bring your attention Mr Chairman sir to said sticky situation which currently resides at the top of the forum

Sticky: Club Details - Venue & Events
WYIOC

Perhaps you should have posted the above picture in there

That'd be due to the fact that you can't have ampersands in thread titles, something which Al is now aware of

Although strangely enough, it actually posts said ampersand, then an abbreviation to indicate that it can't.....

Amp(lifier)
Amp(ersand)

Easy mistake to make.....

Ringo: 'Mi amp's fused'
John: 'Must be his punctuation....'
George: 'What's that gotta do with his drummin...?'
Paul: 'Eh?'

Showing an almost incomprehensible lack of knowledge about the subject, I think it's something to do with control codes in HTML or something like that. Probably there to stop folk putting smilies, image tags, etc. into thread titles.

Possibly

Perhaps

Had a couple of cracking statements out of the kids in the last few days...

Ashleigh: Dad, I can't wait for Sunday. I'm really looking forward to the ***

...and a couple of days earlier we were watching Airport on telly. There was a situatuin with a caged bird which the handler was repeatedly having to remove from the cage, do some tests, then put it back, this was obviously distressing the bird, so Jade commented that they should seduce it.

Just thought I'd share

See you all at the ***

You've got a thing about those leather trousers, haven't you?

Go, own up or join Telboy in/out of the closet...
