Thank you ! I do try my best to join in the jolly japes.Posted by Ruprect : Another excellent contribution to the boead BGG - well done!
By the way, is there an emoticon to show that you acknowledge a spelling mistake, but for fear of being a pedant or hurting the other poster's feelings, you don't want to use the

It's not a case of ignoring the spelling mistake, in case you might appear to be ignorant or dismissive of it, but on the other hand, you don't want to make an issue of it either ?
ps...your Avatar is quite erotic.
