Paddy did say "most, if not all clubs. Gary, I think you have made your point, I'd park it if I was you.

I'm with snapzz. It's about what looks right not about what is horizontal or what is vertical. You don't need hard and fast rules.

@jockwav, go back and re-read what Kipax wrote. He really knows what he's on about. It sounds like you have got confused.

Go on then... what are the most bizarre then??

Are you sure you've not missed any Kipax???
