Explanation Mark !

I can not begin to tell you how the misuse of this little fellow ---> ! really annoys me. (if seems rife in my office at the moment)


For some unknown reason people seem to be putting him any old place they want.


Well Don't! smiley - cross

For those of you who don't know what his job is there is a brief discription below;

Exclamation marks act as a full stop. It is most often used to show shock, surprise, anger, horror or pleasure. As with full stops you do not put a space before an exclamation mark, but you do need at least one space after one (two spaces for purists).
For example:-

Oh! Ah! Wow! Brilliant! No! etc...


End of English lesson smiley - biggrin and if I catch you placing you wrongly again I shall have to conduct a suitable punishment smiley - bigeyes

Cal is not lurking

I was having a discussion about this with someone last night, smiley - erm well not really a discussion I was just explaining why I didn't do it.

One reason being I'm paraniod enough without making myself worse, lurking a thread and thinking someone is discussing me when more than likely they are discussing the bloke down the road who has two dogs and a werid twitch smiley - erm not that I have two dogs and a werid twitch. No no honestly I don't *sulks* I really don't smiley - cross!

Yes I know hootoo is an open place and anyone can see anything that is written here, but I think it's a matter of respect.

Respect for yourself and respect for other researchers. smiley - biggrin

So now that gives you full reign to go say anything you like about me in your own threads and I'll be completely ignorant and happy smiley - biggrinsmiley - winkeye

Cal is pregnant

Reasons for believing this:

1) I'm annoyed at everyone and want to shout at them (My sister was like this when she was pregnant, so it's a sure fire sign)

2) My hormones are all over the place (Tries to get them into a nice neat line, but the run off in different directions again to play)smiley - erm

3) My pecs are getting bigger (takes off his shirt and flexes them) and I swear it's nothing to do with weightlifting

4) It's the only explaination why a fit person such as myself could have high blood presure (well it is in my mind any way)

5) smiley - erm my tummy may not look big but it feels huge! smiley - yikes

6) I can feel kicking (that of course may be due to a dodgy kabab smiley - yuk)

7) I am not mad

8) There is no eight, what do you want from me? smiley - cross shish!

Cal reusing titles

Well almost, then I remembered I'd used that before


Had a little mild worrying session yesterday when I remembered that I'd forgotten to take my tab the night before.

So as to ease my worry Idecided to read the instructions to find out what happens if you forget to take one

It just said to take your tab when you remember unless it is almost time to take your next one smiley - erm are the complications of forgetting it so terrible that they can't print it smiley - yikes

Anyhoo my blood presure probably wasn't helped today either by decidiing to nip out and brave the crowds to do some christmas shopping. I did however manage to fight my way through to BHS and buy my nephew two sweet despensers. One in the shape of a reindeer the other a penguin, the sweets are despensed out of their bottoms and is called reindeer and penguin poo *giggles* The penguin, is clockwork, you can wind it up and it walks along and poos at the same time smiley - laughsmiley - rofl. See hours of fun.

I did get some other things too smiley - erm and I did my good deed for the day too, It's my friends mum's birthday next saturday. Due to him being in hospital he can't get out to buy her anything, so I got him something for her today. I'm hoping this will put me on Santa's NICE list smiley - winkeye
