Sorry about the hirple Joyce. You can keep your spurtle. Never did like porridge but I do love oats in biscuits and crumbles and muesli and flapjacks.
Glad you enjoyed that link PP. Hosta - Possum starts a lot of sentences or questions with "So....". I am being pedantic about that even tho I realise she probably got it from all the years we watched Buffy together when she was a wee lass - girl empowerment and all that and good fun too.

There are lots missing Obelixx.....to be honest I would not call many of them unusual ....it's the comments at the bottom I like.......actually I always find the comments after an article to be more interesting !
my own personal pet plural peev ( spot the alliteration there?) is " Can I have two gin and tonics?", NO, it's "Gins and tonic". Like one Court martial , two courts martial. not two court martials.

I was a great fan of Buffy too, but maybe for slightly different reasons

You don't say!
Good list Dacha but I see he avoids the dreaded spoonsful/spoonful debate.

I've never watched Buffy .... I wouldn't recognise her if I tripped over her ... have I missed much?
