Sorry Orgers, for my ignorance last night when posting, did n't realise I was "shouting" at everyone. My days of that disappeared a few years ago, with the onset of age, though not necessarily maturity! :)
thank you, pussycat.........;)
Never heard you........:D

No worry Anne, we nearly all have a holler now an again.
The important bit is recognising it.

Never heard you either anneoctober ;) then again I wasnt listening. :Razz
Didn't hear you either, anne -maybe I'm going deaf! ;)
Not sure an apology's needed -but it's very nice and mannerly of you to offer one! :)
Personally, I think it is daft that it is considered shouting if a post is done in capitals, who decides these things? Do toddlers taught to shout first with big fat crayons?

I guess the truth of the matter is that all caps in postings is inconsiderate as they are less easily read by the human brain.
That is why we have upper and lower case and why each has an appropriate use. The shouting metaphor probably comes about as it is as easy to read an all upper case post as it is to listen to someone gently discoursing at top volume. :D
Very badly expressed, but I hope you know what I mean, I may reword it later when I have a few more seconds to spare
Ach anneoctober, I thought you were just being considerate and making sure that I could hear what you were saying without my glasses! :lol: [lol]
Anneoctober, your apology speaks volumes for you. ;)
I just thought you were shouting because I'm a long long way away......
[lol][lol]
Never mind Anne - no-one shouted back at you, did they?

the posting is silent, not even a whisper. well not on my pc anyway.:confused
