    I have 2 cats, who are no trouble at all. They purr when you go near them, sit on your lap, and bury their own doo doo.
    I also have a 15 year old Golden Retreiver who smells like the very bowels of hell, dumps and barfs on the carpet, which used to be white, and makes large dead patches on my lawn.
    As for birds, I’d really like to know why, when I’ve just polished my car to a high lustre, do they invariably do a bombing run right up the middle of the bonnet, and all over the windscreen. Maybe they’re not so daft…….

    I missed the post that caused you to make an apology, Andrewman, but the sense of the responses suggests that it was caused by references to dyslexia. If somebody was poking fun at you for suffering from this condition, then they probably deserved whatever it was you said. I have a son who suffers from it and although I am sad that he cannot write as I do, I admire greatly his determination to make life work properly for him in spite of this. He can’t write the Queen’s English very well but he can undo with ease the daft things I do to my computer and which leave me drifting helplessly in an electronic disaster area.

    Well done Andrewman, both for getting on despite dyslexia and for being man enough to apologise handsomely after being pushed too far.

    All the best,

    I’d just like to add my weight to all the above.
    I’ve come across quite a few people with this in my work situation, and I know very well how challenging it can be for them.
    Perhaps those of us on this forum who have mocked people’s spelling-and I include myself in that number-should bear this in mind before we post-
    Best regards

    Nice Spit.
    Does it have retracts?

    There are several other less well known claimants to that title.
    There was a comprehensive article detailing each in Aeroplane either December or January, and unfortunately I’ve chucked it out, so can’t back this up. No doubt, someone out there will have a copy.

    They just got all the publicity.

    Yup!
    Noisy and smoky. How it should be.
    Bring on the big deltas while we’re at it!
