Thank you for your clarification David.
You may not have been offended by my remarks in post 45, but your initial reading of what I had written understood my remarks to be sarcastic.
If you assessed what I had written as sarcastic, others would too.
Since in my opinion there was not even a hint of sarcasm in what I had written, and since I do try very hard to keep my posts free of all and any remarks that could cause offence or criticism, it is clear to me that when I write in a relaxed, friendly style, my comments tend to come across as being delivered in a manner that is not intended.
In this thread this misinterpretation has occurred on two occasions, once in your post 45, and once in Gustav's post 27, where Gustav made comments which indicated that he considered that I was engaging in troll-like behaviour.
Two misinterpretations by two different people indicates to me that even when I am trying to be relaxed and friendly, those who read my words attach a totally different intent to them.
Clearly I am at fault, not you, not Gustav.
Accordingly I will not be posting any further comments to this thread.
