    From a website which explains differences in American and British English usage"
    ------------------------------------

    stood (colloquial, mainly Northern English) standing ("I've been stood here for an hour") past tense and participle of stand
    ------------------------------------

    She's in a small town on a Welsh island so I can see how she could feel somewhat isolated. Well at least whenever that photo was taken she was attractive, and she obviously has a sense of humor.

    If that is an example of her sense of humor, I shall certainly avoid her when she's angry!

    I don't know, it looks sort of like someone that might deal in motorcycle parts or something so maybe this is either a spouse or girlfriend they are spoofing or an ex they are getting back at. Or just a silly woman:D

    Yes, that was my thought too - that it's some sort of prank. The individual has never sold on ebay; only purchased, too. At any rate, it's illegal and against ebay rules. I reported it.

    ya know . . . if you look at it without our guttery minds, it is just an ad for an old bike found in a barn. :D

    If there had been a photo of such (and isn't it required to have one?) we wouldn't have given it another thought.

    Daveydempsey -- you can't goad me into saying that both she and the bike want to appear . . . .

    I'm still capable of overcoming temptation. :rolleyes:

    Hi Lulu & welcome to the board.

    As you can see we're all having some fun with this eBlech listing , while you are quoting eBay policy & pushing buttons.

    This is not eBay.....& what goes on there is not what goes on here.

    Enforcing eBay policy is just not a big concern here.
