Motoring News

Anybody care to count the spelling mistakes in the Shelsey article on page 47of this weeks Motoring News? Have just sent a letter asking who wrote it as they obviously have no interest in the sport.

Did it have poor punctuation and incomplete sentences too?

What was the article about? I haven't seen a copy this week.

Personal Favourite

I do love the superb howler that has been committed on more than one occasion now that provides Curborough with its alternative title ......

Cowborough

So appropriate!

Pot, kettle, black. 2 L's in Shelsley, old boy.
Anyway I digress.

I believe that the article was written by one of MN's sub editors based on info sent in by the the regular contributor. If the regular correspondent had written it I can assure you that there would have been no spelling mistakes.
Mainly out of fear of the micky being taken.
Anyway he would have been too busy eating sausage sandwiches. Gannet that he is.

I think that is very insulting and derogatory .....

PS it isn't the first time it has been called Cowborough, maybe it should be rechristened Motoring Moos!
