Oh, but KICKSTART my dear, will you be eating your scone with John or your scone with Joan?  I'm not sure which is posher, but I eat mine mostly with Joan, and occasionally with John (I'm very mixed up). 

Oh, and I is a Brit through and through, innit ... (turning half-American, my arse!)

This is basically an American forum, albeit with a spread of members from other English speaking countries. So I try to use the American spelling and dialect as far as I can.

Nevertheless, I seem to get misunderstood fairly frequently...
