well think of owning a ferrari taking out the engine and putting it in a toyota and then taking it out once a year. Good value for money?

If I understand your analogy correctly, I am sure you are well worth an annual spin around the block....

I was at a loose end, and wanted to see how much mischief I could cause.

Seems I managed to annoy the odd scamp or 2.....

It takes a great deal more than that to annoy me, sir... but you enjoyed it so I've done my bit.

I wouldn't go so far as to say enjoy, however the unwarranted personal attack did make me titter...

Nearly spat coffee over my screen at that one.

I have looked back through the thread and can see nothing I say that would have cut someone to the quick so much as to warrant your attempt at character assassination.

....but I am nothing if not magnanimous. Please multi-quote the posts I made that gave you leave to launch your pithy assassination attempt.

I wait with baited breath...

You needn't say something direct in one thread to be patronising / condescending / desperate to try and put someone else down.

Unfortunately, it's about the one thing that will instantly get my back up. Fortunately for you, most people aren't that bothered when someone says something in one of the above tones. Probably why we're now here.

Anyway, I thought that 'character assassination attempt' didn't bother you? "Must do better" you said. But you're still upset after a good few days?

Think I must have done pretty well...

There are so many more constructive things I could have done with the last 10 minutes of my life.....

Sad reflection on the life of Scamp in Dubai, I reckon...

By the way, there's a few things that someone might just, maybe, with a prevailing wind, downward hill and a run up be able to take the wrong way.

Whilst amongst friends, I'd laugh with jokes and lines like these...but from you? Unlikely to be taken positively, if you fail to see how they can be taken as condescending or derisory then I think you should perhaps stop trying to look so intelligent.
