Purchased a new Coleman 'Thermos' flask. I noted the 'new' valve they have on their product. Frankly I understand spelling ability varies, but our national broadcaster has some shocking spelling on the news feeds and I cannot understand how a final product information document is not checked for a very large company.
Quite so, Mike. How many times do we post something and then look at it and realise we could improve it? I don't worry too much, in general posts, but you would probably love to sit in, when English teachers are writing reports and checking their buddy's ones. I am pedantic when writing papers or books but even then, with differences between countries and evolving writing it is still a demanding exercise.
I have a beautiful engraved Zippo saying 1997 Hong Kong Day of Retrun. When I noticed I started back to the seller thinking knock off!! I noted as I went that every other shop had the same... I have kept it. I wonder if there are any that are correct?
I thought of another. I wish I could find a picture to support this - it is true. In the 1980s there was a scanning radio receiver on the market which came with a "Regurated Power Suppry". It was proudly printed on the front!
