As to the original question... shortly after joining this site several years ago, I participated in a thread that ran 527 posts as I recall... not a sexually related post in the bunch... Actually, though a very lively discussion, it was quite enjoyable. One of the participants was Merlin whom I haven't seen in a ****'s age...

Raco on
Scun thorpe
Night watchman
