This evening I was sitting close to the TV and whispering sweet nothings into the screen such as "I love your 42" size" and "your vertical hold is fantastic, I can't wait to try your horizontal hold"

I then started to gently caress the screen, whilst blowing lightly on the speakers.

I don't know how long my wife had been in the room but she suddenly yelled out "PERVERT!!" and stormed out.

Honestly, I was totally bemused.

After all, she was the one who had asked me to turn the telly on! ;-)

AnnC :-( :-(

I never saw what you wrote, but I was amazed and shocked. I know it would have been nothing to cause any offence.

Frightened to post anything at moment. What a shame Genes don't look at these reports more closely.

Now to check I have put commas in correct place. :-( :-(

thanks folk - I have had the warning from GR :-)

No way would I have said anything which I thought would have offended Allan - I know we understand each other very well

AnnC Probably most of us were far more offended by the rr than by you.

I got warned yesterday and they print out the words they are warning you for. I have appealed and asked for a personal reply. Shame there in no explanation from person reporting (even ananymously). And no real right of appeal on these boards when somebody is reporting incorrectly (in my opinion). :-(
