Subject: RE: BS: Language Pet Peeves
I feel the same about 'from farm to fork'. There's a large sign outside a farm shop near here with those words on it. My husband asked me if it might be better to slaughter the animal first!
And in the McDonalds in Wroxham, they always call out, "Guest number four!" etc when someone's order is ready to be eaten. We sit at a table there and wait to be called, but sadly, we had to pay first! Odd way to treat guests eh?
My pet hate at the moment is that bloomin' word 'woke'. Have we therefore been fast asleep all these years?
