have toyed with idea of making my 2 monthlies into 6 weeks and see if anyone noticed

look at the turnover increase Ian 

My conversion equates to a 30% weekly increase approximately.

But surely a comparable increase in the physical effort required to  maintain the shortened recurrence?  The income may be nice, but what of the cost?

Ian, what are your concerns exactly?

That you may inadvertantly overextend your cardio-muscular capability requiring some period of recuperative inactivity with the unintentional consequence of depriving us of this amusing banter

Time for me to buy a thesaurus I think (aren't they a type of dinosaur?).

Yes Paul, I believe you are right. It's a thesaurus rex isn't it?

Ian, my dear avuncular friend, it is I, your literary protege, who will forever remain stationed at your feet.

I beg of you to dissuade yourself of any such compunction!  I find podophilia abhorrent, particularly if practiced between close family members.

I'm off to conduct a little alcohol verses liver enzyme experimentation. Catch you guys later!

I did it also only 2 people noticed!

Scold me if you must for I may of indulged in a little naughtiness.

Over the last 11 years or so I have worked my present round that is comprised of 84% 8 weekly customers. And, even though I clean this 84% of the round at a regular 8 weekly interval, every time I'm confronted with a customer i am invariably whished adieu with a cursory, see you in 6 weeks Nick, to which I reply, actually, it's every 8 weeks.

Now, I have persisted in this little scenario but, to no avail. They consistently conform to the 6 weekly mantra. I can't think of an exception.

So, in the middle of last year, guess what, l surrendered to conformity and capitulated.
In one fell swoop l converted them all to 6 weeklies.

The entire procedure seems to of been implemented unnoticed.

Do you still like me?

Nick, you disappoint me   - I've always admired your impeccable use of english

Ian, I'm so sorry!  Words fail me. What kind of bungler confuses a verb with a prefix?

One who confuses a prefix with a preposition I'd imagine 

Almost as bad as a Nazi-grammar policeman who misses the second offence!

I noticed it after I'd posted the first time, but I didn't want to rub it in!
