We are of course doomed when Journalists can't spell.

most bikers on the road hardly ever step on the breaks  :dl_smiley_banghead: :dl_smiley_banghead:

Ianmc, you missed It's, criticise and there isn't double 'l' in abilities........  :whistle:

But there is a good reason why we ought to correct (two 'r's) mistakes of others.

Journalists should know better though!
So how's it going so far then?

Oi ! What Americanism’s ?
I am not keen on acronyms either.I reckon they are “ganging” up on the UK,and,the criticising (criticising)it won’t let me spell it any other way.(Apple iPad spellcheck)

No matter how I try to spell it the forum changes the lower case “I” to capitals.
