The last couple of comments off the little gnome are merely provocative and inflammatory

Well, in the light of genuine provocative comments like "Perhaps they should return to the nursery and play with coloured chalks all day." or "I get more sense talking to a brick!" I think my assumption that you are trying to get the thread closed is quite reasonable, Iains.

But, yes, it does add nothing to the topic in question. Neither do yours though so I will do you a deal. You stop posting off topic insults and I will commenting on why you do it.
