    Why are old kitchens, unwanted plants etc always ripped out?

    Another word that has been annoying me recently is exactly. Tell me exactly when .... I have exactly the same problem ....

  • Crikey, is this thread still going? Tetchy beggars aren't we?

    Still, I spose it is what it is. Hey guys, as an influencer, its important to use synergy to circle back on these unprecedented times, use your bandwidth to trendjack the latest straightfire dope. So look, guys, guys, now I'm gonna take myself offline and have a little down time. And maybe a little lie down time!

    Quite recently I lightheartedly chided the editor of the RHS Garden magazine over the use of this phrase and got a po faced reply from some young chit, no doubt with a degree in Media Studies from the University of the North Circular, lecturing me on the meaning of words. The nerve of it!

    I am not aware of losing any of my faculties - well any that matter at this stage of life - so I am gifted at all times. Lucky me.
