Doesn't cost a thing to be polite, I always say thanks to those who help me, and with the exception of a couple on here, most have thanked me.

A little word that means a-lot!

And I'd like to say; Thank-goodness for it!

Good manners and an education aren't hard to carry. Please and thank you don't cost much to hand out.

Simon.

Yeah its shocking the ignorance of some people. It happens in all aspects, even something as simple as when you move aside in the street or a corridor for someone and they don't say anything, i tend to think "*****".

Highlander, imo that is shocking they didn't say thank you, i very kindly received a free fly line from a member on here and was very gracious. I'd like to say thanks to highlander for being so generous to people he doesn't even know!

Now where's that dam thanks button, it may have actually served a purpose here

If we aren't careful they will reintroduce the Thankyou button again.
Scott we must have been typing in tandem.

Yes it's just you Simon.
I was always taught to open the door for a lady etc, and if they don't say thankyou, I just say nice and loud, your welcome.
