This is one of my pet annoyances:
I use colloquialisms (like 'summat' instead of 'something', and 'me' or 'ma' instead of 'my' etc.) due to my spells living in northern england but some of the english used on these boards is really poor. Missing out the odd word, not using capitals, the mis-spelling of one or two words- fine, but jumbled word order, phonetic spelling of words and incoherent language?
I have every respect for those whom english is not their first language, infact many of them speak it better than those who have spoken it all their lives.
Please, do something about the incomprehensible drivel!
For goodness sakes, it is even possible to edit your posts if you see summat wrong with them.
Oh well..
A golden energy
Was rising out of my head
I shed my evil skin
And found myself again
I was wrong, I don't mind
The impossible seems possible
This time I'm an electric wire
If the sun can radiate then so can I

rEd no like bad word using.make posts suck like dye-son.
Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.
