It's not unacceptable to ask that friendly banter (even in a german accent) is kept mostly to the general chat forum.

Given the direction this story (the original topic) has taken, i'll also move this thread to the general chat forum.
Thank you for that Mike, there is nothing false in my respect of you for your response. I believe your application of "the grey scale" in this case to be an emminently appropriate and courageous one, showing great character, and I thank you for it wholeheartedly.

At the risk of pushing the envelope too far - and I would understand any response of yours to this particular request: as this is now a "General" thread topic, could Screwdriverone's reply to my post to him, and my subsequent reply, be re-inserted? I am sure he would get a real laugh and fillip at my turning his comment about bratwurst into a reflection of his reactions re his barlowed newt scope problems!

ps - my father is German-Irish, Pfitzner and O'Loughlin, I thought I'd leave out the mongrelised G-I lingo we grew up with, and just respond to Screwie in (extremely, extremely) bad mock-German!

Cheers, Darryl.
