Re: 15 minutes!

Spelling has always been important to me and I am happy to have any mistake pointed out so I can learn, but I see forum life made painful for bad spellers everyday and it's not fair not everyone can spell well and making of them particularly with predictive text which can catch out even the best spellers is not right.

However no excuse for signs and published words being wrong they should either check with someone who can spell or get someone else to write them.

What she does not realise that the way to attract attention is by making mistakes in advertising. A very old trick which still works.
