LOL, I can see this running a while yet!

Don't use a spell checker but very occasionally ask Nana to confirm if I have spelt a word wrongly, usually the ones that don't look right, even then I still lift down the old Oxford Dictionary just to reassure myself.

As far as Grammer goes, I no longer have one!  (do still miss them!)

Unfortunately trying to find a dictionary in this house is almost impossible  I have Dictionary.com in favourites

dont mind me, im just bumping me posts up a bit !

(ouch, check out that grammar and lack of capitals etc )

that should of course have read

"Don't mind me, I'm just bumping up my posts a bit!"

tho to be honest, i always think of forums as the one place where you can drop the rules of english and grammar and get away with it, its informal so no real need for capitals, correct grammar etc, tho i must admit, its the lack of full stops that annoys me but other than that, i think its no real problem

What with  al  the gramaticaal  erorrrs  in the  last  post  im neerly chokeing on me tea,   Whats wrong wif the lotta  yer :

i agree with you there actually papa pip, i dont like to see text speak on forums, only cos it makes me feel old

things like l8r (later) and u instead of you etc, now that, i think is just laziness

Makes me feel old to if I admit to it! Although we both know we are just youngsters still!  

Shaved off my beard again just to prove I wasn't that old! lol

Hmmm well.....I don't do that text speak malarky but do talk sort of...........cockney  as I type so no  earthly good using me spell checker on 'ere eh? And ohhhhh how absolutely wunderbar to see somebody actually encouraging the use of emotidoodahs for a changePersonally....I'd be lost without 'em!

Mind you........I could type proper, (ly), if I typed in me poshe voice

Howsomever....I do apologize if I ever offend any peeps wiv me cockney speak, but if ya were to meet to me.....ya'd see it's just ....me 

............only I've got red hair, freckles, walk with a limp and flower walking stick wearing a surgical collar with dream catcher dangling from it and prone to chronic flatulenceoh.......and butt ugly

Hopefully, your thread may well help one or two Teloz but over all I only have the one comment to make.

"There was no pigs." I've been cracking up over that one ever since.

I hope that isn't a typo and should read "crackling up"
