If you read the threads there is quite a bit of banter between members, I am sooo dissapointed at this because at our age we really should know better. It makes me feel un comfortable and I have actually been at the other end of such goings on. Really not sure what response I am going to get with this thread but can not help but be honest.

Ana as a Spanx devotee, doing myslef a mischief is never an option, sadly.

On my iPad, spellchecker is built in. Settings - General - Keyboard - Spellcheck. Just need to ensure it's turned on.

Ana Wed 19-Dec-12 22:17:21

Wherever you found that one, Sel, I plead the slowness of my computer keys to keep up with my super-fast typing.... wink

Sel Wed 19-Dec-12 22:15:17

Ana that shouldn't be 'bough' I hope!

Sel Wed 19-Dec-12 22:14:00

Checking Ana checking, but, then again, how would I know? confused

Ana Wed 19-Dec-12 22:08:25

So did I, and I don't think you'll find too many spelling mistakes in my posts, Sel! (famous last words, of course....hmm)

Sel Wed 19-Dec-12 22:05:36

Sadly, I only had an English education. I bow to the superior though..grin

Ana Wed 19-Dec-12 22:03:08

Thanks, jingl! (I think) wink

annodomini Wed 19-Dec-12 22:00:20

gracesmum, Don't forget Granny23. I also enjoy the benefit of the Google Chrome spell checker - but a Scottish education tells me when it's wrong. grin
