Does this look familiar to you?

This week the Grammar Cop spent some time pondering why it is that ethnic-type restaurants refuse to hire proofreaders for their menus.

Hi again! I forgot to mention, when I told you I started writing a book, what it’s called and what it’s about! The title is:

My last post was my 100th, since the end of June ’15 when I started this blog. Not too shabby, I think – considering I had all but stopped writing, in favour of the drudge (easier?) work of proofing and editing the words of others. But somehow I got the bug to give it a go again.
