I think this section needs some kind of update. There aren't any articles with this year's (correct use of comma - BS) date on them. If no-one can think of anything specific why not do a summary of the years activities, members' (correct use of comma - BS) cars that have been featured in 'Gomini' etc. That way first time visitors might get an idea of the 'energy' and enthusiasm in the site.

Uhm...you hadn't used a comma the first time you said "(correct use of comma - BS)". ' is an apostrophe. , is a comma. :)

You mean Grammar I assume:question: Assuming that you do you are actually incorrect. Just because someone mistakenly calls an apostrophe a comma does not mean that their grammar is incorrect. The incorrect use of a word is not a grammatical error as grammar is the study of how words and their component parts combine to form sentences. It is not the study of what words mean.

Teeing Big Col up? Now that's an idea! U'R a golfer aren't U BS?

If you serious Sheilz perhaps I can have a word with our (Resource's) PR person about a possible article in the lifestyle bit of the P&J.

Just a thought!
