Thank you guys, I was beginning to think I was unable to make a simple point in my own language. No idea what wavelength Stringers was on.
Stan,
I've read & re-read all of these posts and I like to think I'm as erudite as the next Talk Morganeer, so I'm sorry if you're so exasperated by my replies but clearly I wasn't alone.
You feel guilty for not replying to an offered wave. All I suggested was that you should raise an arm despite the oncoming waver having passed.
My wavelength is simple enough - I enjoy my car.
Phew..
