A Open Question or a Closed Question or when is a question not a question
My wife just asked me a question well it was more of a statement.
“We are going to supermarket after dropping daughter off at work” although I soon realised it wasn’t an open question but more of a statement as there wasn’t really an answer that would safely say no I would like to stay at home this morning. Hayho off to drive in the fresh snow |

just don't question the question, be it an open question or a closed question and you will be safe. I always find that's the safest option when the boss speaks.

That mate is a command , no question about it.
An open question is one that invites a long answer. A closed question however is what you want. For example, yes dear, no dear |

So another question or statement, so I’m now going to crufts at the nec
Just been looking on their website apparently so it would seem not just do we pay for our tickets but the NEC also charges £12 to blinking park! WTF really, robbing brummie iligitimate people that run the NEC. |

No way would I be paying £12 for parking, there must be a way round that? Rick
