Alison M Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I always thought I was quite good at spelling. However I notice that a lot of my replies/quotes have spelling mistakes in them. Sometimes I know I am typing too fast, but I get a bit excited, sometimes I know I really should be doing something else, (what's that noise oh it's only OH's stomach rumbling). The spell checker on my computer does not work when I am typing in the forum. Does yours work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 No it doesn't work on mine, that's why a lot of my posts get edited!!! I spot the typos after I've clicked submit! No one will mind spelling mistakes or typos so don't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
