Subject: RE: BS: Commonly misspelled/mispronounced words
One of our local pubs advertises 'Wensday night - Striper, one for the lads'. Hope the landlord can pull a pint better than he can spell.

Use of an apostrophe before the 's' in a plural (pea's, bean's etc.) gives me a serious attack of the vapours. Don't these buggers learn anything at school?

Also, those serial abusers of the English language, TV Announcers, who describe persons/things at risk as 'vunerable' do me in.
