Is it me or do none of these Emoticons cover Winking?

Being a cheeky chappie,sometimes I like to wink but seem unable to here.

Can anyone suggest any help in this direction please Guys...

p.s Its just that I feel that a wink on here breaks the ice sometimes as a greeting.

The internet equivalent of a handshake,if you like.

Jah:Nah!

Its just that there are Emoticons for various other types of expression but none for the good old-fashioned and time-honoured Cockney habit of Winking.

Which in a Sarf London based Forum I find rather strange.

Don't get me wrong I'm not one to diss the Proverbs but I have winketh more times than I care to remember and its never caused me any sorrow,I have to say.(Wink)

Isn't the one I used above a wink then?


Admittedly,I'm not from these parts but from where I come from thats not my idea of someone Winking,one feels compelled to say.

Looking content nae pleased I will grant you, but Winking ?

Its hard to tell sometimes but I suggest NOT! Sir!

...though it might be,you can't always tell these days....

No, bring sheep into it, because we know they're going to just be coy references to bestiality.

As opposed to the appalling fuckery of emoticons. We all know they're wrong, let's just stop it now.

And bury them in the same pit as LOL, IMO, IMHO etc.

Let's consider the use of them as a condition, or syndrome if you will and advise anyone using them to seek homeopathic or other voodoo medical help.

Come on, it'll be a start.

    • In my experience there is no fool proof solution to this with any company. Delivery drivers are people and people will make mistakes, cut corners, mis-understand instructions or simply not read them.  I've left instructions for parcels with just about every single company out there and at some point they've all screwed up.  I think the security camera is the best deterrent for thieves. In this case, my ring door bell spooked them off. I've just installed warning signs at my safe space to make it even clearer that they're being recorded. In the case that mistakes do still happen by the couriers, at least I know about it on the camera and can try to alert a neighbour if I'm not home.  Its sad that we have to turn our homes into fort knox with cameras but that's the world we live in. 
    • Ultimately unacceptable behaviour at many schools of all types was exposed by Everyone Invited, not just at Dulwich College. 
    • Come now, you have seen the constant threads concerning poor post and deliveries since the Dulwich office closed and merged with Peckham  Surly that alone tells you how it would compare to now as the whole system was way more efficient.  But despite the complaints and warnings here we are!!
    • Surely that would just make the system even more complicated?
