Bad Speeling

May 15, 2007

There’s a forthcoming certain Son of Romo’s 6th birthday coming up this Friday. Whilst out hastily purchasing vast amounts of party bag goodness this weekend I came across some rather bad spelling – incredible! Wow – an invertation – is that like an invite that closes in on itself? Almost as bad as my attempt at spelling feasible in my O Level English GCE (yes, that’s pre-GCSE – I am getting on a bit). In a fit of panic I spelt it pheasable. Nice – derived from the verb to pheasant of course?

GOT INSOMNIA? THIS WILL PUT YOU TO SLEEP! AND IT’S ALL FREE – don’t forget to vote.

    maybe it’s an invitation to one of those tiresome yoga parties that competitive parents have (according to a brilliant book i read recently)

    Rivergirlie – hello there! Oh yuck – is that as well as the after-school Advanced Mandarin for 5 yr olds? I kid you not – it goes on – I met a teacher who says she teaches kids that get dragged off to such torture after school on Fridays – by their nannies of course as the crummymummies are out getting a bikini wax whilst snuffling more double skinny triple zero half cap caff at the local spa. x

    Every day I pass a sign that says ‘Sharon’s Toiletrie’s’, and its next-door neighbour, ‘Moira’s Fruit and Juice’s’. Fair drives me potty.
