I posted a blog yesterday about visiting the Lowry Centre… Yes LOWRY, no ‘e’ anywhere in the spelling…. except one crept into the title… How did that happen? Ugh, sometimes I want to stick my head into a bucket of wallpaper paste!

Lois, you do know, don’t you that a blog post isn’t like an email? You can edit it after you’ve posted it. If you’ve spotted a spelling or syntax error, hit the edit button and fix it. And then you can pretend it never happened!

I went back and corrected it, Pete, but the link still has the spelling mistake… maybe I’ll just repost the whole thing!! 🙂

I think there are lots of ‘e’s and ‘s’s just hanging around waiting to leap off the keyboard and onto the screen. They are used very often but they want even more exposure. Sometimes I have trouble with ‘ing’ too.In the meantime don’t do anything rash with the wallpaper paste.

Funny you should mention wallpaper paste… just last weekend we had a bit of a disaster with someone not realising that there was a back and front to lining paper, and that it needed soaking longer than he allowed…. bubbles, bubbles, bubbles…

I know nothing about wallpaper but that sounds like a definite oops!

It was a very big oops! Some naughty words were exclaimed out loud! The disastrous wallpaper had to come off and he had to start all over again and repaper the whole wall… It’s probably just as well not to know anything about wallpapering… I don’t, I just make cups of tea and sympathise!
