I have been asked a few times in the last week what the xx is after all of my comments , I am so sorry but someone actuallythought they had done something wrong and thought  this was my way of commenting if it was  a bad thing, I have had this habit for years every time I write a comment I add my 2 kisses   xx  I was writing an official letter the other day and without thinking I wrote xx. I burst out laughing and my hubby asked me what I was laughing at , I hope you don't mind and please don't think there is anything wrong ,

  I also have a habit of calling my friends pal , this is a Scottish thing and I do hope again that you all don't mind me doing that too .

 

Margaret xx

Thanks for explaining but I knew what it stood for too. When I was a kid I used to sign my letters to my friends and family that way.

x's are fine with me. And I consider it an honor to be your pal, pal.
Welcome to gather. I with you all the fun I am having and none of the problems I seem to cause. Good to have you, pal.
Harrel (Len) Phillips Feb 10, 2008, 7:00pm UTC
The comment above should read: I wish you all the fun that I am having and none of the problems that I seem to cause. Now, Pal, does that make more sense? I need to spend more time proofing my comments. :-)
Harrel (Len) Phillips Feb 10, 2008, 7:02pm UTC
Hey Juan, what does xo mean in Spanish? In military jargon XO means Executive Officer.
