Excuse me junior but its no joke:evil:I think you'll find its 'I saw you' or 'I have seen you' not 'have saw me':mad: Read your post again it just doesn't sound right now does it;) now add 'seen' in place of 'saw'. Reads a whole lot better and I think you'll find grammatically correct now:approve: IMO anyway ;)Quote:

And no she's not a teacher by the way :p:D:approve:
<sighs> I'm afraid you're wrong Big G. My sentence was in the simple past tense, which means either the time period has finished, as in "I saw three movies last week." or that the time is clear, as in "I saw that movie on Thursday" or "You might have saw me on the Arbroath run". Had my sentence been in the present perfect tense, which is used when the time period has NOT finished, as in "I have seen three movies this week" or when the time is not specific, as in "I have seen that movie already." or "You might have seen me on a run." then you would be correct in using "seen" and not "saw". :)
OK resident barsteward:evil: Lets put it to the forum vote:mad: I think your wrong. It just doesn't read right IMHO. 'seen' is right 'saw' is wrong and I don't care how you try to justify it with all that time space continueum nonsense:blackeye: Let the people decide :D
If you put half as much effort into your work instead of this stuff you would be MD by now ;) :p:D:approve:
Wait a minute! You're trying to suggest that correct grammar should be put to a vote? What are you? American? "Oooh we don't like the u in colour so lets just take it out!"
Never noticed you at Arbroath.;)
