289302 2004-11-08 07:35:00 Just glancing though the topics on this forum - I'm appalled at the lack of correct usage and spelling of the English language. Typing errors aside the grammar, spelling and other abuses of English as a language is somewhat disappointing. Without an appropriate appreciation of the language there is a worrying future for all.

Sorry, just an old's rant.

289303 2004-11-08 07:38:00 I suggest if "proper" english is of interest then you do your best to use it,and not try not to force your views on others.

And i realise that this is rather hard for some people to accept,But because something is important to you doesn't mean anyone else has to give a toss or fall into line.

There's not much point, I've tried and you only get hammered for it - the level of literacy is terrifying.

Now where do we get the idea that lots of posts are relevant ?? Some of our most verbose folk generate only slinging-off entries.

The odd spelling error does not matter - it is the views that should count.

but cheers anyway
