Good Afternoon All!
I wonder if someone could shed light on a little problem I �m having.
I wrote a poem for reading comprehension but didn �t sign it as mine and didn �t set any student tasks at the end, so naturally it was reported as a copy and withdrawn.
After it was established that it was indeed mine and that I would amend it, it was reinstated (thank you very much indeed), and as promised on the PM I got my points, however the poem was not put back in the recent contributions as stated. I don �t create highly visual WS �s so I don �t expect a lot of downloads but I think that it should get a chance, at least.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hello, Frank
 
I think there are two ways for you now. You can PM Victor and he will do something about it. Because only he can remove or put worksheets back. But I think it will take some time.
 
Or you can remove your worksheet and reupload it today and it will appear in tomorrow �s contributions.
 
I hope it helps a little.
 
Best wishes,
Larisa
 
BTW Good night everyone. It is almost quarter to 2 here.

Frank,

Larisa �s advice is good (delete and re-upload) and I �d happily add that I think your worksheets are definitely original and interesting (I �m assuming it �s all your own work). I �ve just downloaded your �weather idioms � ws - mainly because I love rebuses ( �7 sheets to the wind �, yass!) but also because you posted here (I wouldn �t have looked at it otherwise) - but I can �t see many intermediate students working out the meaning from what is, in effect, a �highly visual � and culturally specific worksheet. I �d suggest that you pitch it higher or level it down with more obvious clues.

Your stuff is OK, Frank. Don �t worry about points.

All the best

Alex

Thanks very much Alex.
I followed your advice and changed the idom ws to advanced.
I �ve seen your avatar here before and always wondered (A Spanish Partick Thistle supporter???) not that there �s anything wrong with that, but it �s a bit like a fellow in Dundee supporting Hercules... But I guess you must be Scottish.
Anyway, thanks again  and "UP the Jags".

Frank, you �re right: I �m a Glaswegian and a Jags supporter. It �s one of the oldest (though not exactly most successful) teams in world footballing history - but it �s my team, win or lose. The Partick-born comedian, Billy Connolly, once said that people outside Glasgow (who listened to the football results over the radio) assumed that the full name of the team was Partick ThistleNil... 

Mind you, I was pleased to hear recently that my old Maryhill mate and ,now, American chat show host, Craig Ferguson, lists the Thistle as his favourite football team.

Yours in the Jackie Husband Stand with the cold mutton pie and season ticket in tatters at the feet - again.
