Correct again as it's an ungradable adjective. Have a biscuit. | |

Sincerely because I have spoken to Swanners before. Faithfully is only used when you've never corresponded with that person before. | |

I had a letter from a secret admirer during my schooldays who put SWALK on the back of the envelope. She’d even squirted Panache or some such derivative on the envelope as well. Nowadays, it’s all selfies in the bathroom mirror with offers of a handjob behind the recycling bins at Tesco’s. Allegedly. In fairness, with the free text bundles now available with most mobile networks, I suppose it’s far more cost-effective. Postage stamps cost a bomb these days. | | | |
TWTD grammar help needed on 12:24 - Jan 16 with 1137 views | Ryorry | You're all wrong. The correct version is actually - For f u c k' s sake - particularly when followed by the name Lambert during any first-team ITFC game. Apologies to any parents reading, please rest assured that your 6-year old will already have heard it at least a hundred times before in the playground. | |

Are you sure it was a she? Panaché is French for shandy. | |

Having spent half my life in the aviation industry and dealing with many "Johnny Foreigners" along the way I was always impressed by the folks from the Indian sub continent who used the phrase in business e mails as "For Gods sakes" Their understanding and usage of the English language was generally excellent and reflected the rather antiquated colonial past in many instances. Shall we do the needful ? Kindly adjust are two lovely phrases that were often used.. I did challenge their use and when I questioned their use of "For Gods sakes" I was put in my place with a simple answer. There is more than one god. | | | |
