Thanks for the apology, the hackles are back down.
In reply I have never thrown a punch nor any comment intended to anger anybody in this forum, unless one is thrown at me first. This is not my nature and for my part, I tend to avoid writing humour for the very reason that the english language can be interpreted in many ways by the context of the reader and not the writer. I know this is not as much fun to read but I don't possess the clever wit of those such as bitingmidge or ozwinner. BTW english is my first language.
In explanation of my original comments, I used the literal meaning of arbitary ie "subject to individual will or judgement" (Macquarie dictionary 2nd ed 1991). I still believe this to be true as the paint manufacturer indicates the single under coat & single top coat method as acceptable. The comment was not meant in jest or to incite a verbal retailation but a statement of fact of the situation as I see it.
I too would like to close with a a funny line but like I said, I just don't go there
