Guest, before you laugh at jOhn, who I happen to know can spell better than most, at least those of us who still speak the Queen's English can spell the word favourite



DeanMeister - actually either is acceptable in the Oxford/English Dictionary - I presume you are in the UK

N.B. I was not having "a Laugh" at jOhn (sic) simply pointing out the reason he gave didn't make sense - and if, as you say, John can spell better than most - what reason is there for the bad spelling and punctuation in his posts????? effect or effected?

and if the former why make an excuse??????
