Gee Basil, moderators are not that quick - it's only been minutes since you posted it. Actually, the censoring is being done automatically as part of the forum software.

Looks like its up to Paul Mullett to tweak the software -- or leave it as is to keep the normal obscenities hidden...

Ha, ha. Sorry Bruce. I know it would be built into the software....... didn;t mean to seem obtuse. can I say ***** I wonder.......

good grief, I can say ***** but i cant say ****.

thats pretty funny you have to admit.

Firstly, my apologise for getting a little carried away. Especially as this is no doubt a G rated site, as it should be.

Secondly, you do not appear to be a moderator, so how did you get access to modify our posts ??.

As I say, I'm glad someone did. But they do not make any sense at all now, so may as well be removed all together.

cheers

I guess you had to be there.....but your right. I do apologise. Too much sun !!

The word **** has to be edited out by the forum software it does it automatically), unfortunately the software cannot tell what context the word **** is being used in, so it takes out the name too. Why couldn't they have called themselves Rich or Ricky?!

I removed it myself

I decide to wield some of my own power

Gald you caught it though

All this talk of power is reminding me of 'He-man'

Do you remember that? 'I have the power of greyskull'

Dead batteries on cars at the dealerships aren't a surprise, really. I seen many where the batteries are run down from having the accessories played with while just siting on the showroom floor. It also occurs to me that the battery could have been purposely disconnected, another thing I've seen often enough at dealerships to cars that haven't been fully prepped

There is, I understand, to be a feature under the bonnet called a 'jump start' point near the air cleaner to which you can attach the positive jump lead.
