I think it's not so nice to pull someone up on their grammer . . . .but that's just me.
Provided it's not done in a mean way then it could be seen as constructive. Writing "should of" in a CV or job application probably won't help get the job if it needs writing skills. It stands out too much.
You can't pull someone up on grammar in a constuctive way. Those of us who struggled with English at school will never get better. 'Tis much the same as some people will never be numerate.

Well you can aim at that me because I have disagreed with Roxi but Tartanveggie is one of the nicest people on here and she hasn't had any dealings with her as far as I am aware.

Indeed! But I live in hope that before my days are over that I will meet a couple of English teachers who did their best to humiliate me.

Morning Joe
I think we all have memories of one teacher who humiliated us or made our lives a misery.
It's sad how those things stick with you throughout your life
There are a few I would have some choice words with

Mine most definitely wasn't.

C'mon, that's nonsense.
Mistakes on a 'chat' forum are one thing but the correct use of its/it's, their/there, of/have, and so on is simply a matter of instruction and practice. They stand out so much when used wrongly that they're surely worth sorting out if one relies on writing.
So sad...I had managed to get Tickets as well, not until January next year though! It was hard enough to get them, I have no idea how anyone managed to get tickets for the original shows as I had signed up to every site going (O2 etc) and was on the net 1st thing when the box-office opened...!!!!!
RIP MJ
RIP MJ
i'm not convinced the shows would have gone ahead anyway

Luckily I don't. I have never been able to spell properly and make most mistakes with single and double letters. You can pull me up as much as you want (Fnarr fnarr!) but I willn't change.
aaw, bless 
RIP Michael 
I feel so sad every day
that he is no longer with us
He is in my thoughts many times ~every day

I play some of his music, vids or dvd's, every day because I enjoy them, at some point though I realise this is all the millions of fans are left with now. Maybe there will be unreleased music in the future but as I love different forms of dance which certainly includes his routines it's sad to think there will be no more new routines to enjoy.
I truly believe he's in a happier place than this world and I'm grateful his music was a happy part of my life and will continue to be so, it's still sad and hard to believe he's left though.
