Just thought I'd expand my thoughts on this in one of my previous posts into a proper blog.
I hate it when people say "power of attorneys" when they mean "powers of attorney" i.e. more than one document.
I also hate it when people say Specific Ocean instead of Pacific Ocean. I usually try and mention the Atlantic Ocean afterwards if I can.
There is a portaloo company from Workington called Cumbrian Loo's.
So here's a chance for you to tell me all the little things that annoy you.

The aim of this blog is to depart snippets of interest and note. Whether this will happen or not remains to be seen... Also a way to catch up with what I've been doing.

I can't think of anything- little things like that don't really annoy me. If I woke up to a world where there were no loo's or photo's orange's or apple's then I would know I had travelled into a parallel universe.
I know these things upset some people but I really don't understand it-perhaps you could explain??
Gill, itchy apostrophe disease bugs me chronically - possibly because I spent a fair bit of my life proofreading, therefore things like that make me cringe.
Well I can see that if it is your job to correct things then you would have to do it in that context- but I still don't understand why it makes people so incensed. ok -it's a grammatical mistake made by somebody who's life consists of delivering and emptying toilets but why does it cause such annoyance?? am I missing something?
surely you mean whose mother! i can't explain what it is that makes it annoying.
haha just trying to annoy you!!
I think the "power(s) of attorney(s) thing bugs me as I'm a secretary and i know the correct way but a clerk didn't.
People who offer complimentary therapies that it turns out they expect you to pay for!
Oh yeah that would be really annoying!
