    I have just realised the basis of my problem with Wayne stamping his foot.

    It’s Neil Wheedon Watkins Pye looking back at me. Might I suggest a new avatar?

    Boy they are big words. I will have to look those up to see what they mean. Great picture though.

    Do you have a legal background @Callumity ?

    Because you certainly know how to get around Godwin's Law

    I have made no secret of it. Equally I don’t default to Nazi name calling. I merely picked a figure that combined an authoritarian style with public ridicule because the rhetoric didn’t match up. What the Americans would call ‘All hat, no cattle.’

    It’s about Neil as Moderator, not Wayne!

    The question was more a setup for the Godwn joke and I've not yet read the entire forum ;)
    Fwiw I always enjoy the clarity of your posts and the ability to pick *just* the right word.
    Whether I agree with the copy or not
