I stand the risk of being labelled a grumpy old man but is there anyone else who finds those b----y yellow things infuriating? When I see several of them I tend not to read the posting. Perhaps we could have a poll like we did for Ruddy Ducks!!!

Sorry, Steve :( but I agree with Stuart =D> and it is unfortunate that certain members always use them :roll: .......eg. for emphasis, or even for expressing a feeling of "joie de vivre".....the very opposite of grumpiness.

However, if instead of putting 'b........y yellow things' :shock: Stuart had put [-X [-X yellow things, I would have understood his point much quicker and there would have been no need for the the use of (abbreviated) strong language.

So, it looks as if Emoticons rule..OK. :D

PS. Unfortunately, it looks as if Stuart won't be reading this.

I'm delighted that my comment provoked an immediate response from two of the three people who I thought would bite immediately! I like your style, Steve, and to Freddy and Dean, all I have to say is :D before I take my chill pill (whatever that is).

Thank goodness for emoticons :arrow: =D>

Whenever I need to blow off steam and want to use rude words and never would on here, I can use the smilies :lol: :lol: :wink:

I do tend to use them quite often and why not, if it makes me laff then it could make others laff

and they may have had a bad day and need cheering up, so here is an example for those who have

a bad day = :( :x :o :shock: #-o :wink: =D> =P~ :lol: :lol: :lol: :D :D :D

Kind regards

Max
