Not only can you try and punctuate, but can you try and post in the relevant forum please?

Leeds United stuff in the LUFC Discussion forum and a post like this goes in general. It keeps things nice and tidy helps people find the relevant topics to contribute to.

I know Foxwood school well as I went to Temple Moor, if you can throw in the odd comma or full stop it will ensure we don't get short of breath when reading your stuff and prevents us from passing out. :)

Cheers

John

Can I suggest you just use a line break ?

Just press return TWICE after what you consider a sentence

That way it's much easier to read as it gives the eye a rest rather than trying to scan through an entire block of text, looking for a breather ...

I hope you don't mind, I took the liberty of punctuating this - it was the teacher in me, sorry, I couldn't resist!
I actually enjoy marking - does that make me weird? :crazy: :geek:

Hi there, I've been politely asked if I could kindly insert some punctuation into my posts. Well, the simple answer to that is, no, I can't, because I’m a product of Foxwood School in East Leeds - reunions held on Armley D-Wing! To describe the school as ‘mental’, is an understatement. It was like being back in the ‘Nam, however we did turn out a cycling world champion - Paul Wood - who then let the entire school down by joining the police! We also turned out a couple of handy LUFC lads, David Harvey and that lad Conners - I’ve forgotten his first name. Anyhow, I’ll do my best for you all.

Come on you Whites!

Yes it does - I'm a teacher and marking is the bane of my existence.

I found only one thing that irked me. I think the correct grammar is, who "lifted" the entire school by joining the police. :thumbup: ;)
