    I’m afraid I do this quite a lot, whilst accepting that I get it wrong quite a bit too. My current bugbear is still “train station”, which for some reason I loathe and have to tell the offender that it’s “railway station” and that we’re not Americans. Sadly, I note that street signs have popped up in my locale bearing the offending term. Aaaarrrggghhh!!!!

    Out for dinner for my wife’s birthday last night and my daughter (who is doing English A level) took it upon herself to criticise the grammar in the menu with the waiter, asking why ‘crumble’ was in inverted commas. The waiter responded very well, saying that it’s because it doesn’t actually look like a traditional crumble, but it tastes like one, adding that the chef hated the term ‘deconstructed’ for his food, but that’s what he did all the time. It also explained that why one dessert had commas between every single word, when it came there were in fact five distinct elements. Good job we got a waiter who was English and rather older than 17, who also understood the menu and could make sensible wine recommendations, otherwise things could have got nasty with the hyper critical family SB.

    The Tamed Hare in Leamington. Highly recommended for a treat. About £60 a head.

    I hope I’m not the only person that feels incrementally that much safer with every barrier erected, every paramilitary style copper with a semi-automatic weapon standing on an empty railway platform at 5:30 in the morning and every tough-talking Cobra meeting chaired by some witch in kitten heels. I don’t know about everybody else, but I love carrying see-through plastic bags through airport security displaying my preferred brand of haemorrhoid cream to my fellow traveller. Thank you George and Tony. Great job. You pair of ****s.

    Yes, otherwise their sleeves would flap in the wind in a distracting way.
