Instead of concentrating on where (not) to put an apostrophe, the BBC News folk were busy resetting their Evernote passwords. To be fair, it’s been quite a traumatic experience for us Evernote addicts so I’ll cut them a little slack on this one.
In a departure from tradition, this doesn’t contain a spelling mistake. But it does contain a special offer that only a Time Lord could make the most of. Frankly, I don’t think a Time Lord would waste five hours on a train journey.
Thanks to National Rail for this topical offer. The search continues for my cheap travel to London.
I spotted this amazing bargain in Tesco Silverburn. I put them to the test and bought two (for research purposes, obviously, nothing to do with my addiction to crisps) but was charged £2. I was almost disappointed.
Do not examine this image if you are easily offended. It’s best if you close your eyes and ears for this one. The rest of you: look at the blue quote on the right. That’s ‘blue’ in both senses of the word. I wonder how long this’ll be online before accidentclaims.org spot it and freak out.
Big thank you to the spotter who showed me this. I suspect she’d like to remain anonymous.
There is not a character called Loo Seat in this book. There is a character called Lucy. Audio transcription fail.
Ironically, the book is based in the world of publishing.
**Update: Oh dear. I may have jumped to conclusions about this. There are other mentions of ‘Loo Seat’ later in the book. Either something’s gone badly wrong or I missed an in-joke earlier in the book. Apologies for thinking the worst.**
Debenhams were too excited about their sale to hire a proofreader. Thank you to Morag Malloy for spotting this one.
I very much enjoyed this spammy treat from fake Fedex.
