No, but it is nice to be able to understand what is written And seeing as this was posted in "off topic", anythink goes

Mange tout Rodney, mange tout

I see that reading previous posts doesn't come into the equation then

There's (as opposed to theirs) an echo in here eh?

I'm calling foul on this one as it is pronunciation not spelling or misuse in grammar

As an old and pedantic git (this must be true as I am twice the age of Garetheves and he is a Granddad ) with nothing better to do today, I decided to post a quick write up to show the differences between some of the easily misspelt or misused words that frequently pop up in members posts. Your - You're Your - Is that your car? You're - [as chanted at football grounds in the 70's] You're going to get your f*cking head kicked in. As you can see, the latter is a shortening of "you are" whereas the former is a word all on its own. Its - It's Its - can be used all on its own (see above). It's - It's imperative that you use the correct fuel in your cars Again, the former being a word on its (see what I did there) own and the latter a shortening of it is. Brakes - Breaks Breaks - These can be taken during the day to relive yourself from tedium of work. e.g I need several breaks a day from reading inane drivel posted on car forums otherwise I go loopy! Brakes - I need to use my brakes carefully during the winter months otherwise I will find myself spending a shit load of money with Miami GT. Two - Too - To Two - I have two balls in my sack (one would hope being said by a male human) Too - I have those too (as above) To - I am going to have to go (two for the price of one there - in fact, three.) As you can see, the word two refers to a number of items or events (namely more than one but less than three), the word too is used instead of as well or also and the word to is used in shit loads of places. An example of all three being used in one sentence would be: I am going to leave you two too as, to be honest, you are frightening me as much as you are the others. Their - They're - There Their - Their use of English grammar beggars belief They're - They're an absolute disgrace There - There is an idiot posting crap on the car forum again! I hope this short public announcement proves to be of use in the coming months. Somehow, I doubt it

True - but they would have to be some kind of business to generate sales through paypal of £55000 per month! IIRC, it used to cost around 3% - but i may be wrong. I usually am!

A serious question: Does the rule of 3.4% + 0.20p apply to all transactions? I was led to believe it is different for verified as opposed to non verified etc. Luckily for me, I only have to take paypal on personal sales and therefore rarely get to use it much.

It's good to see that you are being reasonable today Michael. I hate it when you come across as being pedantic

What I meant was, they have qualified no matter what the result tonight. Mind you, I guess the same could be said (wgas) for most Scottish football matches

I would tend to agree with this.

Isn't this one of those games where it's like - "who gives a shit"?

Care to elaborate? Are you saying then that a private sale between 2 non traders is covered under the sale of goods act?

There wasn't an asking price per se. It was best offer over 7k and she has agreed that with D3xter.

I must be getting old. I always thought that haggling stopped once a deal had been agreed. You must have different rules in Germany.

PM'd

The lady has accepted an offer from a member and the sale should go through on Saturday. I just hope he plays fair with her and doesn't try to chip her down again (as he tried this afternoon) after agreeing the deal verbally with me.

I am not sure what quoting me is meant to allude to? care to elaborate?

£36000?

Thank you old chap, I will PM him now.

Mine are 15 and 19 and judging by the requests for presents and money, they must think its Christmas every day! Congratulations to you both

Well, the potential buyers have until Friday and then she takes it to the garage to part ex it.

If it was going to be for sale then, it would go up in price dramatically . It is only at this bargain price due to her needing a quick sale.
