I see you spotted my deliberate mistake.
A quick typo is slightly different to those people who repeatedly use the term lens - maybe three or four times in the same message.
Whilst you're crawling along to the Nürburgring in your Saxo where you hope to race, wearing out the ozone layer, they're flying there in their Learjet, proceeding to down too many glasses of champagne from its galley and commenting "Look down there, it's a skip on wheels!!"

Thats all well and good.. but this thread was starting to become a bashing and a **** take of people that cant spell!! i also understand theres a difference in being lazy and having trouble but how can you tell the difference!! you cant! so these lovely people are just taking the ****!! thinking they are sooo Superior to those that cant spell so well..
My spelling isnt the greatest.. and to be honest i have to think quite hard about a lot of words i write!! if fact i oftenhave to re-arrange the whole structure of a sentance because of a word i cant spell!! Its a REAL pain!! But everyone LOVES to have a laugh at our expense!! its not on!!
Come and take the **** out of me to my face.. and we'll see whose the highest on the food chain!!!
Im a reasonably intelligent person.. i can and HAVE had to use my little piece of grey matter to solve problems of a life or death matter on hundreds of occasions!! i have planned and executed things that would make you defficate yourself!! things that have given my nightmares over the last 15 years!! THICK people dont get to that position! I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH SPELLING, But im no better than you and im no worse than you... but you think you're better than us!!
A bugbear eh!!! GET A LIFE!!! and grow up!!
Thanks for that Dave, You have actually pointed out one way to spot the difference between someone that has a problem and someone that does'nt care..
Due to an Injury recieved a few years ago iv been undergoing surgery.. unfortunatly its left me worse that before!! anyway, im now unable to do my job and have to look for another job.. This has made me take stock of things in my life and think very seriously about what i have to offer an employer.. My spelling is a BIG problem at the moment!! its the one thing that can stop me from doing the jobs i should now be looking for.. So its a BIG thing for me right now, i think im a little OVER sensitive about the issue and i think i should appologise for ranting..
Sorry...
Dont take me saying Sorry as a weakness though!!! :nono:
You still dont get it!! taking the **** out of people because they have a problem with spelling is out of order!!
if there were disabled people here you wouldnt take the **** in front of em!! Or would you.. maybe there are a few on here that really ARE the superior twits they appere to be..
Btw i have qualifications in Engineering too.. not a degree.. but not a thicko...
I have just ordered a new lens.....
Bugs me too!
Whose the onese that spellse it like that ?
don't start me off...
" I went down to Jessops and brought myself a new lens"
aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Brilliant! Love it! Excellent!! I always correct people on their spelling - I get all OCD about it It's like people with bad teeth or dirty shoes - I can't help but stare and get all sweaty under the collar!!!
What's with Merkins and their lens aperAtures?
Nowhere in this thread is anyone taking the **** out of anyone. What people are doing is expressing an opinion, something they should be allowed to do without being abused or threatened.
