MBY News - I don\'t usually nit-pic...
...... but the opening sentence in your latest Spirit of Cardiff update really grates: (http://www.ybw.com/auto/newsdesk/20020524111439mbynews.html)
"Spirit of Cardiff are once again able to pick up speed once clear of Saturday's storm and make up some lost time… Clive Tully reports:"
I presume that Spirit of Cardiff is a single vessel, right? So surely even a schoolchild knows that the sentence should begin "Spirit of Cardiff IS once again ......"
I'm sorry but I had to say something - I tried to contact MBY News directly to point out the error discreetly but the 'Contact us' link is broken

So, sorry MBY, but you brought it on yourself - can you please correct your grammar? And what about fixing that 'Contact us' link as well!
