SWEET FA.........Tuesday

They swell for days SS, have fun with all the complaining, though I doubt you'll be able to understand And I have a solution! I shall just use rubber matting with a spot where he goes to the toilet, then I shall just vacuum it all up and put a bit of bedding down again rather than a whole bed!

I'm a genius!

Now here is a random question I have always wondered. From my ponderings it does seem to be English people that do this but why do English people say brought instead of bought?

Just wondered, answers on a postcard please... means I can rest easy if I have the answer!

 

[f_s_]

Can't help you there S_v as to me, brought and bought have two entirely different meanings!!!

Brought = to bring something to someone (past tense)

Bought = to buy (past tense)

Basically, I don't know, but I'm not native!!!

 

[sea_view]

I know that's why it drives me mad when people say and type - today I brought a new dress or whatever - aaaah it's BOUGHT!!!!!!

 

[Pony_Puzz]

S_V - Because it sounds posher? And we like to be classy maybe?

 

[f_s_]

It's not classy, it's incorrect use of the English language!!!

 

[sea_view]

How can it sound posher surely it makes them sound like a numpty that doesn't know the meaning of words?

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

I'm with f_s on this!! It is two entirely different words so its either laziness or lack of understanding............poor taching or lack of it!!

Spot the person whose mother is a teacher - used to mark our thank you letters with a red pen............

 

[sea_view]

Lol! Do you still have a fear of red pens?

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

I have been scarred for life by an overzealous red pen!!

 

[f_s_]

Oh I suffer from red pen syndrome too!!!

I was the child that used to do Lomond English lessons when everyone else was in PE!!!!!!

I loved it!!!

P_P will now say, I'm an even stranger adult!!!

 

[sea_view]

Ha ha lol - we're not allowed to use them now nor crosses!!!!

 

[Pony_Puzz]

I just took a guess, to me it sounds posher (which probably isn't a word) but I don't say brought, rare if I do

 

[sea_view]

Lol P-P you're a crazy one!

 

[The_snoopster]

Ok what have i missed on the forum today ? been busy snoopy is back at home she walked back in her field like she had never been away. She pee,d then rolled twice broke wind then head down to grass. Classy mare aint she.

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

See S_V - thats where it is all going wrong!! Bring back the red pen, crosses, sp in the margin and p for punctuation!!

Lines, detentions and being shouted at would all help!!

 

[f_s_]

What do you think of decals on trailers??

Just thought we'd put "Sponsored by the Bank of Mum and Dad" on P_P's!!!!

 

[sea_view]

Lol Sinks - good thinking!

F_S - I'm all for that!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

There is a few with that on them round here!!

And more than a few more that should have it on them!!

 

[f_s_]

I'm only teasing her!!! She's a great girl really!!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

But she doesn't muck out!!!!!!

snoopy - glad you girl is home safely! Sounds like she has never been away!

 

[sea_view]

Hey snoops - not missed much here a haven but out there - back stabing, bitching banning you name it!

 

[f_s_]

Glad she is back snoopy, and happy and settled

The hobgoblins have decided I might be nice to lie on!!! It's not easy typing with three JRT's all trying to gain prime land space!!!

 

[sea_view]

Ha ha - f_s Daisy my cat usually does that - hod on til I find a foto...

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

f_s - be grateful you don't have a lab and a spangle!!

 

[sea_view]

Here she is being not so helpful!

 

[Pony_Puzz]

Well that ugly one could do with a spit roasting

not my one though

And haha S_V I'm not crazy just lively and considered to have verbal diarrhea a lot of the time

I do muck out though! I'm a very good prisoner of war, I can even cook

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Aha!! f_s your training has not been wasted after all!!

P_P - its called child labour and I'm all for it!!

can you fit up a chimney??

 

[f_s_]

S_V that's what they're trying to do!!!!

Now, I know they say you should have a wrist support when using a keyboard, but this is just ridiculous!!!

Slinky - I'm counting my blessings that I don't have a lab and a spaniel at the minute!! LOL!!

P_P - Your ugly one has left now...gone back to Daddy!!
