I saw a dreadful tattoo yesterday:

"A mothers love last's a lifetime"

I really didn't have the heart to comment. She was so proud of it.

I've recently started a new job. I'm quite old so the majority of my colleagues are younger than I am. A couple of days ago I had an e mail from a much younger, but more senior, colleague (fortunately not my line manager) referring to documents that are, apparently, filed in a 'draw'. Hmm

Staying overnight in hotel. Welcome letter states that 'should you have any special dietary requirements please do not hesitate to ask any member of our team who will do their upmost to oblige' :)

Blimey, I don't think I've done my upmost for years!

I worked in insurance for a while and a colleague had typed on someone's file about a recently purchased car being a 'branyu'.

Brand new.

I've been lurking on a serious thread in Relationships, and I'm getting really twitchy feeling unable to correct the kind poster who's written "tow" the line.

I work in a nursery and the walls are covered with notices advising parents to pick up their photo's and to ensure their children have sun hat's. It makes my teeth itch every time I read them.

DD's school will hate me - all of those kinds of letters will go back to the school with errors circled.
