Anyone Wanna Buy a Car?
March 4th, 2007
No such luck with an inheritance from an unknown relative, so I am working my arse off for what seems to be a bit of a pointless venture, but I am among the masses so I am led to believe. Jade (my daughter) turns out to be a bit of an AmDram queen after her role in the schools’ annual production, “The Tharwting of Baron Bolligrew,” I was well proud to see her do so well…
No more particular new news, I need to get the motor through an MOT (Road Safety Test) soon, the quarterlight on the off-side needs replacing, also the exhaust and maybe a tyre, I’m a bit of a dab hand of running a car on a shoestring, comes from passed experience.
TYRE came up as a spelling error! Though “answers.com” define it as “Chiefly British”…Maybe they meant “Correct English.” Come on America, learn to spell…

It’s the way of the world guv that the Yanks can’t speak no proper Engrish.. Us British like to think we know it all but the yanks have a cunning plan that involves robbing the masses of letters while they’re not looking lively..
Take Colour for example.. The Yanks would have you think it’s spelt Color.. Something tells me they are twisting the very fabric of us common god fearing english speaking mortals who wave our flag and bow down to the queen

Point taken, though I will not bow to the queen, nor do I fear God as I’m agnostic and any flag waving I will ever do, is whilst having a dump in a recreation ground.
