I always read them.Will admit, I never knew that one was meant to start off with a capital letter after putting in an exclamation mark!!. Full stops yes, but not exclamation marks. so there you go. You're definitely not on your own making grammatical errors!! There we go!
I also notice that articles today think nothing of starting a new sentence with the word "And.... etc". When I was in school, this was a definite NO NO. How times change.
Best regards.Donkeyman.

Judd's post below is the straightforward way to do it so try following his instructions, you'll soon get the hang of it.
Just click click on the Enter/Return button, then start your new paragraph.
Thank you Judd for posting clear instructions
Best regards.Donkeyman.PS.Allready following instructions.

Admittedly, as a person with a background in words and their usage after a working life in the printing trade, I probably am something of a pedant in this way.One positive though – Donkeyman's text does not suffer from the use of those appalling spell checkers! Often these simply cannot find the correct spelling for the word in the context it's being used!
Hopefully this is of help to you Donkeyman.
You are a little pedantic, but at least it is constructive.
Best Regards.Donkeyman.

Re: Theresa Has Won !
Donkeyman I haven't had a problem reading your post. Yes it looking increasingly likely that 'May has won ' and no I don't think she did it alone it is a carefully worked out strategy.
Remember the Olly Robbins 'leak' that was overheard in a hotel that it would in the end be 'May's deal, a long extention or no Brexit ? I think even the 'leak' may have been planned. No doubt we will know one day, someone will make a programme about it.
Leaving with 'no deal' would be too unacceptable to many MPs.
I guess this whole episode has all been carefully planned as have any possible permutations of the situation taking into account any amendments.
I don't like 'the deal' but like the prospect of not leaving even less.
My hope now is we leave with a deal and (taking into account the EU have made their point that escaping is almost impossible and we will soon be dealing with a whole new lot of leaders in the EU following the Elections) we manage to work out some mutually favourable agreements.
