Excuse me, but wasn't this one of last week's questions?

[shaneystar2]

And ....does it matter if it was last weeks question....if rayrowbsy wants an answer ..fair enough.

[Kenzie]

Absolutely no need to be rudeShaneystar2

[shaneystar2]

I didn't mean to come across as rude kenzie and apologise most sincerely.Perhaps I should have phrased my reply differently.But I didn't see why it mattered if it was last weeks question or not.

[Kenzie]

Shaneystar2, I can see how my reply was misinterpreted - I was only trying to alert rayrowsby to the fact that he had missed the entry date for that particular crossword but on reflection it didn't really read like that. Thanks for your gracious apology, much appreciated. Merry Christmas to you and look forward to seeing you in print again soon.
