Pedants' corner

To be annoyed that nobody seems to be able to spell eczema correctly?

Even the posters on the wall of the eczema clinic at our local hospital have spelt it 'excema'.

Or should this be in the pedants' section ;)

Pedant's section please!

As someone who struggles to spell the name of my illness, I've now got to the stage where I prefer to see the gifts people have not their areas of difficulty.

Is it not more important and beneficial to you that they can help us with a skin complaint than spell it?

:)

Perhaps they're all Absorbaloffs.

Yes, yes it should.

You're right OP, we're going to move this to the Pedants' Corner!
