Taking the Piss Outta Spell Checkers

If you rely two heavily on computerised spell chequers then their is every chance that yaw righting may be perfectly spelt but make know sense whatsoever. Eye am beginning to receive letters from banns that I find hard to interpret. It isn't always a case of a wrong word in the wrong contempt, it is sometimes a mistyped word where they're fingers have whipped on the keyboard. Or missed out letter, here and there.
I went into the bang the other day as they said they heeded my signature to enable me to cash the check for the £100 in £5 notes that I wanted. Banks are not two seen on hashing cheques for cash. Thy wood much rather ewe queued at the aromatic cash dispenser [or ATM] and then cued again to exchange your cash for the £5 notes. I do knot have thyme for this. So I took my piss pot into the bank as the letter requested to enable me to prove who I am. I assumed they where going to do a DNA sample as proof. I know they have too be vary careful. I no all about the laws on being carefree and a money launderer. The bank clack didn't find it amusing. I dint have the letter with me as proff. So I add to return home to collect the letter and my new passport . On my way home I dropped off the pisspot and sample at the doctor's sugary four a cheque up as I do sew hate waist.

Thanks for the plug! Now just add me to your blogroll (us Brits must stick together) and we're done! Ugh, I've just noticed that the link to my blog entry says "its" instead of "it's". Don't you just hate it when web addresses do that???

Glad I found your blog, I shall return and check more of it out. This entry of yours reminds me of a story I wrote for the school magazine, way back when I was in my teens. It was called Agatha Cartwheel. Don't ask me why, I had no idea then and I have no idea now.

BTW, did you really mean to say you wanted to have a "goon"?

I wish my bonk had an aromatic cash dispenser. Unfortunately it just has a whole in the wail. I have never yet had to take my piss pot in but I've got one in the cup bored in case I ever knead it.
PS: Very funny post!
PPS: I've just realised my comment sounds exactly like that gendarme chap in Allo, Allo.

witty woman - thanks - I'll be updating my blog links when I'm more techie minded - all fingers and thumbs today - watch this space. I have to admit the goon was a missed typo error but when I spotted it I decided to leave it in - as it seemed a fortuitous accidental mishappening. As I was typing the post the whole thing started to remind me of Ronnie Barker so maybe the Goons crept in to my subconscious.

AMKT - LOL - I know just what you mean! Good Moaning - thanks for dropping Bye.
