"When I say "melon" you must put a "Y" on the end of "year""

DH wrote the card to his parents today.

I heard him say "Oh, bollocks, I've just put a "y" on the end of "year"!"

I looked. And yes, he'd written "Happy New Yeary"

Apparently it's because I made him write it in biro because he'd left his fountain pen at the office. He said it was like being hypnotised - he couldn't stop himself from writing the "y".

I had to hand him DS2 I was laughing so much

BahHunkBug · 08/12/2006 23:38

No, Nobbo, I think

Am crying with laughter remembering it!

He wote an extra y because you gave him a biro? The male mind works in wondrous ways...

that is genius... must use excuses like that when I don't want to write the cards and vac the house!

That's how the current Gulf War started you know, they ran out of fountain pens at No 11 and Tony had to use a biro. It hypnotised him into writing 'yes there are weapons of mass destruction.'

My mum wrote a card for her very nice postman which read "to our cherry postmas"... somehow I think she'd had too much Christmas cheer

SpicymulledSheraz · 09/12/2006 22:02

I wrote in a report that instead of being 'locked out' they were 'licked out' - o and i are next to each other on the key board, and yes I had saved and posted it before I realised. Was so embarrassed when returned to me..

Once told a class to "sut up and shit down"(think about it...) Complete silence for about 2 minutes, then gales of hysterical laughter. Nothing got done that lesson....
