This is a public forum, Tom. Feel free to contribute as and when. Whether or not you "construct a manuscript" and submit it, is entirely your choice. It probably won't matter to us, one way or the other but it might be a waste of your, obviously precious and valuable time, if you put all that work into something you're likely to feel proud of, and don't present it for comment. Just a thought.
Jane I'm utterly perplexed by your comment. My time is no more precious than any other working man. The thing that astonishes me is the total number of posts made by others that run into thousands and in some cases tens of thousands. Thats not a indictment of my "precious and valuable time", it's the profligacy of other peoples time on this forum that astonishes me. Of course it's up to the individual how they spend their time; however I can't help but notice the inordinate amount of time spent on this forum by the pro-guilt community who have nothing to gain by further discussion, since JB is banged up good and proper in their opinion.
I think it's only right that I should have a "Sheila scenario", but since I have only recently been able to pay more attention to it, that commitment will take more time, apologies to Adam and Steve UK. Both have been insisting that I post a Sheila scenario, yet you say in your post that it "probably won't matter to us". So hey-ho what do I do? I'll post a review of CAL's book on Amazon for you all to slaughter at will. It won't be a total Sheila scenario but it's as far as I can go at the moment. No more posting for the time being.
And please Adam, no more making gross misrepresentations of my posts in the meantime, it tends to get me a bit upset, you may have noticed.
