I'm used to things being done the other way round. You explain what you mean and how you intend to achieve it and then I decide whether I agree.

Not sure it's trolling: not really sure what it is. No doubt we'll soon find out we've bought a time share in Magaluf.

Then there's the 13-year gap between his first burst of posts and the current one.

"Looping Pardon" might possibly involve spinning (or even rolling) at Prescott Hillclimb, but that's a bit of a long shot.

I wonder if the OP is going to return to explain things?

I've posted whilst drunk a couple of times too, but always gone back to edit or delete as necessary.
