People who say "should of"...........ARRGGH!

And people who say "bockle" instead of "bottle" and "keckle" instead of "kettle": another ARRGGH!

These are the one that get to me,


Someone asks "can you borrow me a tenner", I start asking around to see if I can??

Someone who says you are itching your head, when you are infact scratching it.

Itching is the symptom, not the cure.

RF, we got the 'skellington', we didn't need a diagram!

But I suppose you were thinking.... 'I'll LEARN them'.

"At this moment in time"...............

Its either ...At this moment, or ....At this time.

"At this moment in time"...............

Its either ...At this moment, or ....At this time.

Or 'Now' even.

Back to wearing suits: I used to live near Derby. I would sometimes be around when Rolls Royce and British Rail offices would spew the office staff out at 5pm ish: hundred of dreary suits plodding home with briefcase in hand. Vowed there and then never to get a job where I had to dress in complete conformity like everyone else. Dull, dull, dull.
