Today's Guardian Magazine, feature on Julie Walters "Singing in Mamma Mia didn't phase her."

Grr!! Bloody sub-eds spend a bit of time checking your work.
(Don't think it's on the online version, just the paper one so you'll have to trust me...)

They've put a correction in their 'homophone corner' in the same day's paper.

Ah good! I saw that and thought but figured, they can't be that wrong, surely not in a title... thought I was mistaken phew

God that annoys me too! like they're being too clever for their own good - "ooh look, we're using the proper word here with the ph and everything" - no you're not! it's the wrong bloody word!

"Bare with me" gets on my tits too.

After you, but it's a bit cold for that.

People mixing up phase and faze drives me MAD. There, just needed to SHOUT.
