That guy must spend hours at junctions trying to work out what all the signs say.

Credit where it's due though, he managed to read the ebay instructions........

captial? I couldn't find this in the dictionary.

In my defence, I often use the method of writing as described by the Honourable Gaspode, as one often needs to, in a manner suggesting a quiet 'after-comment'.

I deem this permissible.


Next case......
Now San; to be fair,

I have demolished a couple of bottles of Rioja, and one of my cats ( the blind one ) keeps walking over the keyboard ( a sign of wanting to be fed ) ... and if I didn't keep hitting delete... it would be really unreadable. but yes... you are right....


Yet another Typo


But back to the Ebay seller.... there is really no excuse now...is there.



Right, C'mon cat... come get some Sheba.

You don't have to go to ebay in order to find this kind of stuff, these boards are becoming full of it too. I just read some threads in the main section that are really bad, written by newbies who are picking up cheap, older S2000's. (A sign of the times?) But i noticed they don't get picked up on it as much as a couple of years back. What's changed?
