Willow Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Just as well there is no Olympic spelling event as it looks like we would come last I'm slightly dyslexic but I still find that sort of mistake incredibly annoying there really is no excuse for not proof reading an email that is going out to many thousands of people. (My boys haven't inherited the dyslexia but they had inherited my intolerance of bad spelling ) I went to a school trip presentation where the teacher had done the talk for many years, yet her slides were littered with spelling and grammatical errors.

The Dogmother Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 That would have me moaning too. I see quite a few elementary errors on official stuff coming in at work too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janepie33 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Despite the rouge apostrophe, I have just bought 2 tickets to visit the Olympic park in July. It was a toss up between the park and some Greko/ Roman wrestling! The park won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 We've been involved (at work) with the Olympic stadium build so I'm hoping for an invite to go down for a tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..lay a little egg for me Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Despite the rouge apostrophe, I have just bought 2 tickets to visit the Olympic park in July. It was a toss up between the park and some Greko/ Roman wrestling! The park won. I think you meant "rogue"? Though perhaps the apostrophe is red with embarrassment?! I think you're right about avoiding the Greco-Roman wrestling..I've seen it (briefly) on TV during other Olympics...it looks weird! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
