it would be boring if we all agreed - dammit we'd just talk about how much we all like Arthur Ransome's books all the time, and what would be the point of that?
Hear hear! On this I agree totally with Duncan and Peter R. Those words should be placed permanently at the head of Trapboard or Tabard or whatever Ian's calling it at the moment, so that when people grumble about 'bickering' they remember that disagreement is the lifeblood of informed debate!
And anyone who does not agree with the above can 'Buy One Get One Free' as they say in Tesco. (UK reference)
