I have no problem when someone asks after searching but quite frankly if they cannot be bothered to search then I cannot be bothered to help.
A little blunt I know but I learnt an awful lot from searching threads. All my personal opinion with absolutely no intention of offending anyone.
Just read Alanjay's post that wasn't there earlier, #feelfoolish.

We've all been there, that bit between composing and making a post, only to find a new addition to the thread that changes things. I do it all the time, if only I could type as fast as can think. Though that wouldn't be much help as I think very slowly.

It is the nature of the beast to have someone with a problem (with assosciated panic attack) to jump on the forums and ask a question, when in truth a quick search would probably elicit the answer they search for But such is the nature of the members on here we all respond usually with helpful replies and pointers Which, in all essence is what the Club is all about

It is true! Someone very kindly pulled me up in that thread Alan after I had made a mistake which had thrown my post out of context. I am glad it was pointed out, but have to say that I am not too keen on the pink script. What about moonstone? Much more pleasing to the eye
