Gavin,
I noted in your 'post' to David that you unfortunately don't have a whistle. I wonder if you lost it back in '92, as it was back then that there was, in fact, a whistle cru. Agreed?

Nic,

Many thanks for this late addition and, accordingly I note your comments.

You are correct to consign the relevance of the aforementioned “whistle” to the alleged
“cru” in 1992. Please forgive my ignorance; rest assured consideration was given prior to my previous response.

Nevertheless, I do proclaim previous ownership of such an item at the stated date, unfortunately due to unanticipated circumstances the “cru” was disbanded.

Suffice to say, I was left traumatised upon receiving the intelligence.

Best Regardz

Do I hear the heavy tread of a troll?


Hi Anglika,

I note your comments, many thanks.

However, one must confess a sense of bewildermint to your meaning. Please could you elaborate ?

With regardz

No.

Trolls know who they are.

In defence of Gavin, I do not believe he is a troll (if they even exist that is!).

He has unlocked an interesting debate on the use of regards,or regardz as he would like to refer to it. Commenting that he may be a troll because of this is very harse in my opinion!

Kind Regard,

Dr Phaw

Dear all,

My apologies if I am offended anyone with my remarks.

My intentions have been genuine. I only seek a minor amendment to the well-liked phrase “Kind Regards”.

All views are welcomed and I eagerly await the outcome of my suggestion.

This is a forum for language learners, so can we please go easy on recommending forms that would be marked wrong in exams? If people read quickly or with a limited understanding through this thread, they may get the impression that it is a possible spelling, which at the moment it is not.

Without wanting to be a killjoy or to reduce the playfulness that is so important to the life of a language, I would ask people to acknowledge when using such forms that there is nothing official about them, as the red pen of an examiner is as official as it needs to get for most learners.

Tdol,

Many thanks for your statement to this threat.

I too agree that ultimately there is nothing more authoritative than the red pen of the examiner.

I can only again apologise if I have caused any confusion with my request.

Hopefully, this matter will be resolved shortly but until then, best regards.

I think I have found Gavin....................

Dr Phaw,

Your most recent post has again been noted but with respect, I feel this is a little distasteful.

As you are aware, the issue at hand has raised varying degrees of opinion and thought. I would refer you to the forum rules and regulations regarding content. I am certain that following on from that reading you will deem your last post regrettable.

However, I appreciate the hilarity you have articulated on this occasion.

Kind regardz


Gavin
