Thats not difficult really, given that Britarch seems to be dominated by a sad collection of sanctimonious and self-important old farts constantly scoring points off each other. They should just hire a room somewhere and have a big fight.
You really have to wade through a ton of drivel to get a nugget of useful info on that site - a lot like reading one of my reports.

Such a shame, so it is ! A bit like having a mad auntie who you do care about but you would prefer not to be seen with at a family gathering as she has a habit of taking her teeth out and singing rude limericks.
There are however many useful people there, with good ideas? and knowledge? but that?s what you get with no control?
For example I laughed so much at Mr Whites hysterical comments on the logo for a Britarch Mug ?? a metal detector with a red line across it... ? , I nearly wet myself? unless of course he was being ironic.. ! J
Then again.. BAJR can?t talk J
The BAJR mug would be a sensible person with a red bar across it ? flibble?

"Tautology"-had to look it up as i've never heard of it!its the little things like-Dave there's no such word,and i ask why not?it fits the sentence. And as for grammar,last year i tried to do a computer course and was asked by the tutor to add a colon in the sentence to which i said "a colon? isn't that part of the lower intestine?"

Absolutely - and bless 'em all for persevering. They should get the OBE (Occasionally Being 'Eard).

I think this has mileage: a sort of (very) minor celebrity death match.

I can see it now...
Commentator one: That's a big lion there bob... big teeth and some large claws to contend with.
Commentator two: Well, you may be right there Ralph, but some of these guys have some pretty sharp pedantry there .. and a few are more than able to be offensive... this is not a one sided match.
Commentator one: You could be right there bob... but the smell of tweed does get those lions pretty riled up...
Commentator two: That tweed does form a pretty effective barrier to any external attack though.
Together: So what are we waiting for............... FIIIIIIIIIIIGHT..

I was hoping to just hear some gnashing of teeth, a bit of slurping and crunching and perhaps a belch at the end.
