Accident waiting to happen

Support from Dept of Pedantry

"semi naked" should be hyphenated as "semi-naked" to form the adjective.

"per say" should be "per se". In latin this means "through itself" or "by way of itself."

"scant disregard" is used incorrectly. It should be "scant regard". "Scant disregard" is a very clumsy way of saying the exact opposite of the meaning that the writer intends to convey.

"in respect of" is poor: use "with repect to"

"alternate" is used incorrectly, and would mean that there to be only two possible photographs. The word to use here is "different".

"kill joy" should be a single word as "killjoy"

"I am not a kill joy, we drive a 32ft Tullio Abbatte... , we boat in Palma" is incorrect punctuation. These are three sentences, and should not be connected with commas.

hope this helps

Re: Support from Dept of Pedantry

Not bad, not bad, but you missed the punctuation, and also "nowhere" in place of "no where", and "sight" in place of "site".

I can award you the bronze pedantry award, keep up the good work.

In TCM's absence I have checked your spelling. You have spelt **** incorrectly. **** you seem to refer to is a chain of clothes shops whose windows and logos are designed to shock and disgust old people. The correct spelling of the word you wish to use is ****.

Hope this helps.

Now hold on. Are you telling me that when I look at the photos of the forum members, THEY MIGHT NOT BE REAL? That a certain Scotsman is not actually strapped down and having his eyes gouged black by some hidden interrogator? Or that BarryH isnt really some yellow hairy monster, or that Boatone hasnt got caught in a 1930 french movie-fest? that BrendanS can anchor??
Holy xxxx. Did Happy1 realise this when there were all those arguements?
