[amateur51]

Coral Browne, fr'instance?

You should plead the 'fair dealing' defence relating to journalistic, literary, dramatic, musical or artistic activities - with an additional ratio decidendi relating to the wonderfully humouristic

I thought that anecdote was funny. I watched a programme on BBC2 last night, there were more rudelets in that than in a month of Sundays on this MB. Is the problem so widespread that the Robots have to be called in to monitor?

It's not really about monitoring what people have already posted; it's a polite request that people respect the House Rules which they have agreed to in posting any message. (Reminder: "In posting on this forum you accept the conditions and undertake to respect the House Rules.")

Is this a ploy to get us to read EVERYTHING that has been posted ?

Sir, I would respectfully submit that the word "Tweet" in itself might be considered an expletive!

Yes, she did, something about singing the arse off Bach? Or was that Petroc tweeting?

I can't believe SM-P would ever utter such a coarse expression; she seems far too well brought up a young lady!

Well, I've said that there are few tweets that I've read that don't lower the tweeter in my general estimation. Most people seem to enjoy playing the part of teenage airheads. Exceptions are few, in my experience.
