[QUOTE="CatsFive, post: 2578357, member: 567227"] No need to apologise, you were by no means the only one at that time. It felt like the Andrex puppies had been let lose! The macho vibe was because it seemed to be mostly men treating it that way. I've not really looked much for the past year and I see now it's mostly people with my reaction - 'you cannot be serious!'. And I still feel rather that way, but I think that if at all possible it's important to start making changes despite the feelings. BTW your written English is fantastic, I suspect your spoken English is just as good. I went on a camping holiday to Brittany in 1981 (year of THE Headingley test) and was invited into their caravan by some Dutch people to 'practise their English'. I think it could only have got worse if they used me as an exemplar! [/QUOTE]
