Guys and gals,
I would like to formerly and openly apologise if I have come across as a right pr!ck, ar$ehole or rude, arrogant and belligerent twat the last couple of weeks. (if not even more than usual

). No excuses for such impropriety and I do sincerely apologise all round to any and all affected, insulted or aggravated by it.
Not going to rationalise it, just admit to it's existence and the genuine fact that I do apologise for this unwarranted behaviour.
I will always be the "witty" clown, and occasionally VERY blunt, matter-of-fact (I won't pad things out for people) - you'll have to accept that as the way I am - but there is absolutely no acceptable excuse for the behaviour of late.
