I've certainly not called Dolly ANYthing, Marc.

I was speaking in purely general terms about about how easy it is to form extreme views about people on the net.

Now please stop your troublemaking.

Yeah that would be me. Laughing out loud

Hey - James Cotter has taken a lot more stick than you and he's still with us - at the time of posting that is!

While James Cotter reacted defensively to some criticism, he never did so with unpleasant disdain by haughtily dismssing critics as c**ts who don't know any better. On the contrary, James Cotter showed he has one of the most valuable life skills: the ability to get on with people.*

* May not be an important life skill; I've never tried it.

If anyone needs lessons in how to spell squirrel correctly, just let me know. I know how to spell squirrel.

Huh?

Quote: Nil Putters @ October 26 2009, 11:27 PM BST

Huh?

But I can spell squirrel (and say it) in at least 10 languages. Nice sig, by the way.

Russian?

Pronounced byi-elka in Russian.

Icelandic?

Icelandic?

Nid. :)

Ekorni - similar(ish) in Scandinavian and French. From 'ekor' meaning tail.

I have no idea if any of these a correct, but well done for sounding convincing. :D

Sorry, that was Old Icelandic (Python fans should get it though).

One of the coolest words for squirrel is the Hebrew 'snui' (plural snuim). Also good is the Romanian 'veveritza'. Really, try saying 'snu-i'.

*says snu-i*

Have I called myself a cock now? :D

Just don't call "nid" to an Icelandic man. :)
