algy 386 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 This may be of interest to some posters. Good job I started at an early age!, not mastered it yet though, I could never decide which was correct "I like a nice pear" or "I like a nice pair". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle 36 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Why ? Because it is the language we were taught to use correctly, if anyone needs a spell checker for any of the words on that list then they should be ashamed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cleopatra 93 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Is he young and handsome? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dizzy 411 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I'd imagine somewhat sun scorched (dried out?) and wind battered and also slightly wobbly on land legs too Cleo There's always Eagle though as an alternative... maybe a bit flighty and very strong nail clippers, a bag over the head and a tether might come in handy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bazj 503 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 You’re right, it is your hat and they’re wrong. Just because it was on their chair when they returned there, doesn’t make it theirs. We’re living in a time when people have no sense of right or wrong. Things were so much better when we were growing up; where has the feeling of community gone? Back then, we a little more respect than youngsters of today will ever know; no, we had far more respect. Two pounds would buy you a cab to town and enough left over for a couple of pints too….

Cleopatra 93 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Really, I don't know why I asked. Sorry, nothing personal asperity, but I'm not inerested in doing detention, or anything else with you or anyone else. A momentary lapse, after which I felt so guilty and disloyal to my recently deceased husband. i know in myself that I was just being flippant but I cried my eyes out afterwards when the pain of his passing once again stabbed at my heart. Sorry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Sid 847 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Cleo never apologise for your feelings be they guilt,joy or sadness. Feelings are what make us what we are and the fact that you can still have a momentary lapse proves that you still feel his presence close to you as he was when he was alive. As for English anybody who can manage to write and spell correctly (and I don't just mean the word itself) after being brought up in Lancashire and working alongside wiganers, lethers and scousers must be on a par with the best linguists in the world.

Bazj 503 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Cleo.... it is 25 years since I lost my first wife; I still have my "moments".... a certain song or a certain place etc. We are only human and have feelings of loss that only those who have been there will ever understand Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lt Kije 99 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 No not interested Asp, I will continue to beat you in debate, and you will continue to loose, and get more pedantic and more desperate. You really are going in low now. Smacks of desperation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
asperity 918 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 In your ignorant opinion perhaps, but not in reality. You only know how to kill debate, not actually how to engage in it. Did you really think that this thread was directed at you in particular? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lt Kije 99 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Well I think you should name the " some " then Asp, I find it odd that your even bothering to deny it. Are you getting more desperate. Go on be a devil, be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
asperity 918 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Why should I bother? You obviously think it was aimed at you so why not leave it at that if it makes you feel special? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lt Kije 99 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Oh I didn't see that one coming, that's pathetic even for you, just how desperate are you, name one of the some Quote Link to post Share on other sites
asperity 918 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I repeat, why should I bother? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
