    Writing this has of course wasted me more than the aforementioned 6-7 seconds, so much so that I actually wish I'd timed myself!
    My sig is fantastic.
    You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

      "There are considerable management problems relating to Jack's behaviour"

      "If Jack's skin is not washed"

      "the use of emulsifiers such as soap to clean Jack's skin could be causing dryness"

      "Jacks care" What? Jack's personal care?

      "However whilst all previous care plans regarding coffee were considered unmanageable by the multidisciplinary team responsible for Jack's care"

      "conflict resolution skills that have been used to manage Jack's behaviours"

      "I am redirecting Jack's attention"

      "so only influence Jack's immediate nutritional intake if he is hypoglycemic"

      "catheterisation would also compromise Jack's independence and privacy"

      "Jack's continence may deteriorate in future"

            What's there to illustrate, you moron? Where the **** else does an apostrophe go in these examples, FFS!?

                  There should be an comma after "six" in your signature, allowing you to remove the unnecessary "..." .

                  ACK!
