Next person to post is a big girlie.

It's gone dead quiet on this board, so I reckon it's probably no longer cool to post on the Beau Peep forum. Therefore the next person to post is a big girlie. (My money's on Mince).

Poopmaster, please put the full stop "inside" the brackets. Only the Americans put it outside.

Do you ever get ideas while you're out eating?

Do you ever get an American full-stop up your bracket?

I agree with The Peepmaster and the American nation. I put my full stop AFTER the brackets. It makes sense. Open your bracket, include your thoughts, close the bracket then finalise everything with a full stop.
As I said earlier , I had an Indian meal tonight (Tandoori Mixed Grill).

Yep, I think the full-stop comes last. (After everything else, in fact). That's what my old English teacher told me. "The full stop comes after everything else, Sutherland", (that's what he said). To which I responded, "Thanks for that advice, sir".

No.

Not even ones for Beau Peep?
I'm not sure I understand this---do you mean ideas for Egon? Well, unless the chef hits me with a haddock, then it's still "no".

His whacking you with the halibut would have done!

No, I was implying that no ideas for anything entered your head. Clearly it didn't work. What do I have to do round here to be appreciated - cut my ear off?

Go here and read number 12: http://www.mantex.co.uk/samples/fullstops.htm

The point of brackets is that you can remove them and their contents and still leave behind something that makes sense. If you take away yours, there's a full stop floating around doing nothing.
