hands over polish for the cleaning of your halo

thats Mr. Sheen, not the population of Poland.

this is self preening, back door bragging.

well done, you're great at grammar - yes yes we all know

Quattro I am in awe.

You are my hero.

I would so love to point out grammatical errors in shops but am not brave enough.

I believe apostrophe salad does form one of your five a day

I'd like to nominate myself for the prima donna of apostrophe-rage.

Despite (or perhaps because of) having too many things to do, I was so enraged by the apostrophe-abuse perpetuated by my local Sainsburys, that I insisted on walking around the shop with the hapless manager pointing out all the horrors his shop had perpetuated.

This was some years ago, but still, in retrospect, utterly nutty ...

Slubberdegullion · 07/05/2010 21:44

oh balls to an apostrophe sticky. I shove them in all over the shop and folk still get my drift.

No No what we ACTUALLY need is a sticky that reads

Please Note: Poo = Shit. Pooh = yellow bear with very little brain.

Bibbity your being BU,
Just because some poster's have issue's with they're grammer,

Ooh please don't! I am perfectly well educated and have an A for English O'level - but even my grammar slips after 2 glasses of chardonnay! I would be shunned on MN!
