    Well, actually, it's still not quite correct. The ellipsis (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis) which are emulated by the three full stops should not have a space before the punctuation mark (just like any other punctuation mark). Additionally, I don't think that "be" is the correct word for the sentence in question. I won't even mention the use of "farking" or the capital letter in "bonkers". I'll just fix it:

    Edit: Thinking about this some more, I don't really think that an ellipses is quite necessary here. Perhaps a semicolon would be more appropriate?

    Oh My!! I'm gone for a bit and some of you oldr buggers are brain farting and imagining that you may actually still have enough grey matter left functioning to know what is grammatically correct and what isn't?!?! Methinks mayhap the mull bowl of confidence has been left unattended yet again! You know, the one that Welshie partakes of before every race? We've all seen how that works out ;)

    Now go back to your plastic tanks & toy cars & leave it to the Real Wordsmiths & SAGNs of this world. Where's Wayfarer when ya need him :)

    Oh & welcome aboard casper!
