Re: Trevs Stupid Question of the day

Well it wasn't started by me so I can't take the credit or the brickbats for it although I have been a contributor. I tend to look at the forum a bit like a site canteen, ask a stupid question in there and you're going to get pulled to bits.
I've been pulled for a couple of things I've said since I joined, where my own stupidity has been pointed out I put my hands up to it and if possible have joined in with the pointing and laughing as you would have to on a site
I guess it could be a bit offensive for a new arms member to find one of his questions in there, something I've never really thought of before, but most of them come from DIYers who would never come back to the forum let alone join us in the pub.

Sorry Trev having a blond moment, hopefully have edited correctly to the correct person
 
That was not the intention when I pointed that out mate, I was quite enjoying the vicarious notoriety

Glad you pointed it out, I'll be the next stupid question contestant:yes:

Nice turn of phrase there Trev. I'll try to remember that one.
