Well, dock my pay then.

In common Australian English if I state that we have done something in the past you can either take that at face value or call me a liar.

If you're confused about past activity you could look to the links which refer to past battery park instalation.

You're most welcome and I'd be obliged if you'd look in a mirror and reflect on your attitude here.
