Just saw a trail for Sleb Masterchef - it's back on the 18th August, at 9pm, with Giorgio Locatelli joining Grace Dent. Chuffians assemble!

@Fransgran we must have been separated at birth because I was just ranting about that to DH (he's used to me complaining about it and just tunes out)

Oh, you should hear me on "less" and "fewer". And "may" and "can" . Also people who say I when they mean me because they think it makes them sound good.

To be fair, you do sound .....refreshed

Sunbird24 · 25/08/2026 21:59

Can I add some people’s excessive (and almost always incorrect) use of myself to the irritants?

placemats · 25/08/2026 22:00

Well done Nitan. Enjoy the badge. Like Donna as well.

ilovesooty · 25/08/2026 22:00

And "very unique".

Please feel free. You certainly may! Night all.

I was doing some bits for a work colleague while he was away, and when he wanted me to do something he would send a message saying “May you…”

I am with you myself on that one. It really effects me. It has bought me to my knees many times.

Add me to that sentiment.
Also "myself" when it nearly always should be "I" or "me".
And "nauseous" and "nauseated".
Although it can be quite cathartic agreeing fervently with someone who tells me they're "nauseous".

That was the idea. I thought I'd made it obvious I was joking in the last two sentences though.
I have had two large glasses of Malbec, but if I'd had a large glass for every "elevated" I'd be well away!

ilovesooty · 25/08/2026 22:30

Discreet and discrete as well.

Davros · 25/08/2026 22:43

Just caught up. I can’t stand that Tom bloke and, like others, only recognised Nitin and didn’t know any of the others.
May I join you pedants and offer “decimated”, it doesn’t mean destroyed, it means reduced by 10%

I didn't really think you were sloshed @LaMarschallin I just rudely ignored your parentheses in pursuit of a feeble witticism. Apologies!

Piggywaspushed · 26/08/2026 09:16

I don't mind Tom as much as the rest of you. I suppose as a teacher I am used to young men like him - exude over confidence, often a bit fragile.

I am a Gladiators fan so certainly know Emily!

Definitely don't know the ballet dancer.

I like Giorgio but I am not sure how much he understands non Mediterranean food. He especially seemed confused by 'stodge'. He actively wrinkled his nose at good old American soul food.
