In article , says... 207 lines of crap snipped Wow! Four consecutive posts containing a total of 605 lines! Do you really expect antone to waste their time reading all that crap? Oh, and another two further down the thread with 243 lines between them! I'll give them a miss, if you don't mind. Apparently you do, to the extent of counting the lines of well crafted prose. Get a life. |

The first thing that springs to mind is cheese, it's made in every country. Britain does make some good cheese though I prefer Dubliner or Cambozola. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubliner_Cheese https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambozola Still a good Double Gloucester isn't bad or perhaps a Stilton. |

Then why does the animal exist? Shouldn't it have died out before humans began farming them? Like our Bighorns, mouflons can take care of themselves. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouflon Supposedly the original sheep had 60 chromosomes like goats and selective breeding lost a few. It's like selective breeding of Dane warriors dumbed the breed down to Theresa May. |

Don't be stupid - Gravity give me a line count in the index so thsat I know when there is a load of crap to be avoided. And if I did open them, I dare say I would find a whole load of quoted rubbish completely irrelevant to any comment you have added. Clearly at least two people (the ones in the conversation) don't mind the "excessive" quoting, so you're on your own. If you want neat posts, by all means trim when you reply, but since you're not even in the discussion, **** off. |

Yes, you barbarians call them sweaters. If you're sweating while wearing one, you shouldn't be wearing one. Depends on how long you are sweating for.
