I do not understand.

Are you trying to be rude about the help you have received on that thread?

If you want to take it that way it it entirely up to you. That was not my intention.

Below is a definition from the Urban Dictionary for those who aren't sure what it means

TOP DEFINITION

out of your tree

To be crazy, to do something insane/crazy,
Like being out of your mind

Bob: I'm going to go jump off that bridge

Frank: You must be out of your tree!

#insane#stupid#pulling a phelps#out of your mind#crazy

A phrase, I think, that could be taken the wrong way  ::)

Ashford: Somerset, London
England: Devon, London, New Zealand
Holdway: Wiltshire
Hooper: Bristol, Somerset
Knowling: Devon, London
Southcott: Devon, China
Strong: Wiltshire
Watson: Cambridgeshire
White: Bristol
Windo - Gloucestershire, Somerset, Wiltshire

Well said it takes all sorts
