    c) Both
    The way you've worded A is frying my brain...

    I think it's C.

    I am not sympathetic generally.

            Hum. I can't manage either of those, but I can tell you that my colleague here has just gone into great detail about the time he accidently ate his toddler's poop?

              Ahh, Baby stories. Almost as good as cat stories, but not as interesting.

                I thought A was worded correctly.......

                You said you had been unsympathetic...
                I said I didn't think you had been...
                I am a bloke....
                You said it was a 1st for you....

                ergo - I (a bloke) didn't think you were unsympathetic (possibly the first one)
                Implying that other blokes did (or might) think you were unsympathetic

                PS - 999 last chance for either!!

                  Yes, you're right. It's not that you thought I had been actively sympathetic.

                  This is confusing, let's leave it there.

                  Is this my 1,000th post?



                  Sorry Dave
