Damn you! Yesterday's poll has produced no consensus. Now I have to dither some more!

Addendum: Grammar pedants (yes, Ian, I'm talking to you :) ); should it be yesterdays or yesterday's? Both look wrong somehow.

Well, it looks like your grammar pedantry needs have been fulfilled.

Well, except for the *glaring* lack of a question mark, and probably a semi-colon (or possibly a colon), the lack of a capital letter and no quotation marks.

I am, quite frankly, shocked at the inability of your other correspondents to point out these trivial errors.

Bother! I spotted the question mark yesterday but didn't do anything about it. Where should the semi-colon go?

[truecatachresis.livejournal.com]

To replace the comma. As I said, I'm not entirely certain whether it ought to be a colon or a semi-colon; either would suffice where the comma does not.

So does this mean you are Ian and I claim my imaginary 5 GBP? I have been wondering who lurks behind the username (and the lack of posts haven't helped me figure it out!).

I am indeed, there are posts (not many, probably not much help in determining identity) and you certainly can have an imaginary five pounds. Imaginary cash, or imaginary cheque?

[jinty]

Imaginary cash of course. Never accept anything other than used fivers. Not too used I hope.
