I have spent many hours on this site, never posted anything, but have learnt and enjoyed it. Thanks to everybody. I have visited many sites, of all languages, luckily I live in South Africa and am fluent in both English and Afrikaans so have managed to find my way around the European sites without too much difficulty. I shall continue to silently sit and enjoy all the postings - now I know what COB means, should make my life easier.

What Does COB mean?

Thanks Sandiboo. :-) I think her feelings were hurt unnecessarily from her own initial judgement. I have been coming here for close to 2 years (didn't become a member until late 2007 however) and there are helpful answers to many of my questions. But in order to find out what people have said, one must actually open their question. Nobody has rejected her, but she will have to work through that issue on her own should she decide to remain a participant on this site. :-)
