re: ‘manning clown’ - he’s my cousin, mining engineer (blast + ventilation iirc) living in perth and working in kalgoorlie… He spent a year overseas in french speaking Belgium, so understands first hand the issues with french keyboards

re: categories… it’s a little bit of a process but I’ll go through it with you:

Things you need to do:
* Go to the ‘Organise’ tab
* Create a ‘category’ for the article you are writing (normally the name of the location), then make it a ‘child’ of the area you are staying (look at the categories and you might get what I mean)
* Create an identical ‘category’ for the images in the image categories and put in the same sub-category
* Then go to the image tab and when you upload you can select the category to upload it into
* When you write an article, on the right hand side there are two article categories - the first one is for the general location (eg Europe) and the second for the post (eg Switzerland). One other thing is on the left hand side at the bottom it says “URL-only title” - if you are using the same name of the location as the category (ie not doing something silly for the article title) put an underscore (_) at the start…

If you stuff it up, i’ll fix it like i’ve been doing for a while

calm down stephen - we’re only kidding (and it is frustrating, just as the frogs would be pissed off with the english keyboards ;))

Why is there no link here to the video’s? They are the most important part and I cant find them cause you sent the email to my work email.

I heard the web standards authority is cracking down on incorrect grammar so youre going down joel.

You guys should try keyboards from various other languages!!! Don’t be so arrogant simply because you are use to another type. Imagine the difficulty people from other languages go on an English keyboard after being used to typing on their keyboards. And what’s more English has 2 types of keyboards just to confuse all those other people (QWERTY and that other one)!

Nah man - I made the spag bol on the first night (1.65kg of mince, all gone by the time people finished the meals)… and richard forgot the fucking onions (so we tripled the garlic quota).

I’ve heard the french keyboards are weird as - bloody frog conspiracy I tells ya!

You spelled “too” wrong.
I’m reporting this incident to the web standards authority.
