Hopefully it at least put the wind up a few of them  ;D ;D But then again they will now be applying for compensation because they had mental torture or something.  >:(

It is great fun to spot these errors and very beneficial to do so.

I worked on an extremely difficult job abroad and when the company I was working for decided to put a PR item on their website about it, they got caught out by their spell-checker (presumably ;)).

They wrote that "...using local people enabled them to understand the local language and nuisances...".  After I had commended them on their inadvertent accuracy ( ;D) they changed nuisances" to "nuances".  But not after it had been on the www and available to be read by the customer! ;D ;D ;D ;D

You can't be too careful.  Bring back English in our schools I say.

ahh dear it would have upset the criminals not from this country but broke the law in this country how sorry i feel for them,,, just a shame there not execution yards

I should add that i don't mean they should all be killed i mean if they were there it might put some of them off doing wrong in the first place
