I wonder who I meet on that day , at Pere Lachaise.

Yes, but the funny thing is, it was probably a ruling of some toffee nosed twat judge/peer whatever who went to one of our great institutions, ie, Eton, Harrow, oxford, Caimbridge... And in all of those upper class inbread over privelidged public schools, got one brain cell to share in the whole gene pool and bottomy is practically in the curriculum son, so grin and bear it what-ho!!
("and believe me that pool aint gettin any bigger" said Margaret Upyabot-slyme of Buckinghamshire.)
Come on that's a good boy don't be a rum lad, and bend over for Head Master.
Stop to pick up a pin at one of those places and believe me it aint gonna be your lucky day! (Even if you do like that sort of thing I bet it isn't with a 56 year old fox hunter who looks more like his horse than does it's foal!)
You have been warned...Never bend over to polish your shoes in the Home Counties!

...that of the people, in GB, most vehemently opposed to Homosexuality, ie, the Lords, peers etc. Most went to public schools, where it is well known that, that sort of thing, is rife! Double standards, dear boy, double standards!!

Oh dear. You have over-dosed on stereotypes haven't you?
I suppose in your world everything's like Enid Blyton, with lashes of ginger beer?

If the point is in mexico you are in germany! The best and only thing for you to consider is the following quotation:
"I'm going to be going round and around in a circular motion and hopefully you might get the point. What you think means nothing, you are nothing..."
I could say more but I think you get the general idea.

Wasn't - singular, not plural. How do you pass your days then?

Now that David has straigtened out the impostor problem, I think he should he write a program that blocks people who feel compelled to correct other posters' grammar and spelling. (BTW, I think you should have put a comma between "days" and "then".)

Pedant's Corner
It's all part of the fun! So-called "Netiquette" says that punctuation and spelling aren't important, but I disagree. I like annoying people by correcting their mistakes. People should learn... You see the same errors time and time again. Such as confusion over "their" and "there", "where" and "were" and "its" and "it's". It's not difficult to learn the correct usage, is it? Hmm?

well, then you should learn that if a line has a continuation then ends a thought such as your sentence "People should learn...," there should be another period and the quotation mark is after the period on "it's." who cares if we know what the person means? we can all be picky and it really isn't a paper that is being graded that we're turning in or is it? i don't even capitalize!
by-buy (oops i think it's spelled "bye"),
please forgive me

I did NOT spell Elliott incorrectly at all. I was referring to George Elliott the butcher from the High Street. Everybody knows him; cheery soul who always has a twinkle in his eye.
