Am I missing something here? Is it April 1st?

 

[Notters]

They've changed the title now.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

The grammar and spelling on that site are dreadful. Pay peanuts, get monkeys. There is a story about fuel poverty on there and the reporter has referred to a 'metre card' instead of meter. They make these sort of mistakes every single day.

"I hadn't seen him or spoken to him for more than 25 years..."

Jeez.... dredging the bottom of the journalistic barrel if the best they can get is some bloke who took some pictures back in the 70s but actually knows f*ck all about David!

Cheers Notters, I thought I was going mad.

How about this beauty in the Tim Peake article?

He showed the draws in which the space food and drink is kept with the the former on the starboard side and the latter on the port side.

As one of mrs revs relatives was his music teacher i must be lined up for a full centre spread in the Argus!

If anyone still buys the Argus has anyone gone through the whole paper marking the errors rather than just one article. I wonder what the record nimber is?

 

[Official Old Man]

Another off topic post.
Story on BBC Wednesday about the Brighton Belle train. An unknown singer by the name of Bob Marley was on the last train ever run from London.

I have noticed more and more spelling and grammatical errors on the BBC website and on Sky News, so it's not just them.

Good one. A quick edit is required before anyone notices......

This country!

I had a parents evening thing at my daughters (7) school last night. The little sticker (prepared by the teacher) on her Literacy Book said 'Litercay Book'.

I pointed out the irony but it didn't go too well.

 

[heathgate]

I used to get suits made in the 80's by the famous Buddy just down Trafalgar St...... so did Bowie.....does that make me newsworthy?.

 

[Albumen]

I imagine the Argus office is a little like this.

[Fungus]

I was sitting in the doctor's waiting room once, and the illuminated sign flashed up "David Bowie to Room 4". But it was an old bloke - maybe the photographer?

Makes you want to spit in the eyes of fools.

My Mum taught at Ravenswood where he went, one of the teachers that was still there (think may even still be there now) had taught him, I met that teacher... Can I have at least a mention in the full centre page?
