I would,Gumby-but the pooch is camera shy.Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I don't drive a car myself so it really doesn't effect me, but what annoys me is the ads on the TV for what must be a new company, CARWOW! now I ask you what kind of an idiot came up with that stupid name? "Gee whizz" someone in the think tank said "what a swell title for a used car company, wow, I can just see all the posters up as I walk along the sidewalk, Carwow!, lets go with that guys and gals." Whoever came up with that should be hung on a billboard alongside the other eegit who came up with Brexit, every time thay said that word on the TV and radio I thought they were saying Breakfast. Jayus spare us all from the new crop of name selectors.Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
Y'not getting old,Jem,merely preserving what you know to be correct. For me,a real REAL pet hate is when some overpaid prat is spouting a voiceover for an advert and ends it with "Phone oh-eight-double-oh",followed by a number that may well include the null quantification of 'Oh' several more times. I attended 51 schools,for reasons that are unimportant here-and the one thing maths teachers of ALL grades and standards were truly adamant about,was that a zero [known in those far away,long forgotten days,as a 'placeholder digit'] was,is and will ever remain,expressed as a fkn ZERO,not an 'Oh'. Yet,today,in the age of 'LOL' & "OMG",etc,the humble-yet essential-zero no longer seems to exist. It has in fact,come to naught.....[see what I did there? eh?]Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
