...it's 7 weeks since we had a spelling thread. Where are they all? Marking English SATs? Or is it safe to start not being quite so paranoid when one makes a typo?

"someone has too much time on their hands "

Mrs ddc said she was busy and I was to go away and amuse myself

I think I have to stay out till tea-time.

Fortunately she has given me a packed lunch with lashings of ginger beer.

Probably freshly sliced bread and butter, thick-cut ham, farmhouse cheese, fresh scones with cream and a Famous Five novel

Sadly the brexit debate may have temporarily pushed me into an imaginary world of Enid Blyton's 1950s.

A time before Crabbies was widely available, I suspect

Seeing as SAT's have been mentioned...

Has anyone seen a sample of the questions on the English paper?

Now, whilst its been a long time since I was in primary school, I'm sure we weren't taught this stuff, in fact I struggled now to answer many of the questions, and probably got most of them wrong!

You spelt 'I' and 'on' correctly, the latter twice.

Go and stand in the korner.

This thread reminds me of when worksites have those signs that say "it has been X number of days since the last accident on site."

I think you have now restarted the counter

Well, it's probably better to let them vent every couple of months, rather than let it build up so much that they explode!
