12/12 thank goodness! Many people would regard me as a pedant when it comes to English grammar and spelling and I guess thats right. The truth is I worked hard when I was young to learn English (as well as other languages) to a very high standard, I spent many years as a copywriter and proof-reader, and I hate to see our wonderful language misused and abused. I quietly bite my tongue when I see people confusing your and youre, who and whom, and its and its, for example. And it takes me longer than most to write texts on my mobile and comments on Facebook because I try to be careful not to drop too far below my own standards! But hey, I can live with that :)
