Good spellers who have an excellent grasp of the English language.

they've all done time in a turkish prison

a racist against poor spellers, bang out of order imo

mr winkle is all in lower case. It's a mockery of a sham!

mr winkle is correct. Lower case.

I've only had a cursory glance, but I don't think I'll have problems with the following people.

sparkmaster
crags
Tommy Toes
mr winkle

An update to follow in due course.

There ought to be a colon after "people", as the sentence is preceding a list. Other than that, a fine effort.

That's a matter of conjecture.

No, it's a matter of good grammar. However, well done for putting your head above the parapet.

think you've just signed yourself into a full time job !!

mr winkle is all in lower class as well.

Since 'Good spellers who have an excellent grasp of the English language' isn't a complete sentence, there was no need to follow it with a full stop.

imvho

Trust a woman to make a fuss about a period.

Surely the content of a message is more important than the presentation as long as an understanding can be formed. I have always found the pedants of the grammar world have made the poorest debatOrs. Too busy nitpicking, they are unable or unwilling to enter into the argument with anything to help advance the day. Blinded by their own pathetic obsession with minutia or the fact they are usually a bunch of fcking nobbers.

...Blinded by their own pathetic obsession with minutia...don't you mean ..." Blinded by their own pathetic obsession with minutiae " ...?

lol sparky

MARVELLOUS STIFF SPARKY

Oh come on canny, surely you're not lolling at that? It was funny the first time and mildly amusing the second time but this is the THIRD time in 4 years that sparky has made that exact same joke.

They are not interesting enough to have more than one obsession.

HTH nobber.

I must have missed the other 3 Miss P.

Three times in four years - you should see a doctor!

*2

same joke 3 times in 4 years is perfectly acceptable.

OK I'll allow it.

sparky, as the forum's world-acknowledged expert on facebook, can you help me with some advice please?

Are you sure you want it. My grammar's quite bad. They think it's her colon.

Sigh. I can see I'm going to have to start another thread if I'm going to get any sense out of you.

comma sense?

Shouldn't the colon be followed by a hyphon as the list starts on the following line?

Spellpersonthingy, don't bother checking my grammar...she's been dead for yonks!

Hyphen? Hyphon?

Hyphen.

Confusion of Where/were on the forum today. They can't have read this thread. Tsk, tsk.

He's a spell and grammar checker, not punctuation.

Nirvana. Yeah, I realised that as soon as I'd posted it. Grasping at straws, really.

I s'pose I was thinking of 'syphon'.

Trying to think who started this thread. Me, Slippy or TGM. LOL

That must have been one of Ron Russian's earliest posts - but the confidence suggests no newbie.  Who was he before?


Oh, MissP ....  I sit down by the waters of Babylon and weep.

It's all coming back. It was my opening post as spelling. Didn't realise Ron went back 6 years, no idea who he was before, if anyone.

There was another Ron here about 6 years ago who used to to go in quizzes but I can't recall his full username.

i hate myself? i use 'your' instead of 'you're' all the time. I know the difference. It just gets by me in the heat of typing.

considering i was a school drop out and  spent more than a good  few hours in the snooker halls bunking off school or studying horse racing form in lessons ,  i find it hard to fathom how bad most peoples' grasp of English is ....well,  it's ***** shocking .   I hear  newsreaders ,jurno's and the like make so many  mistakes .

The one that gets me every time though is Brought, not Brought  - know the difference you ****s

I'm glad you bought that up.

Can you borrow me a tenner?
