This week on TV I have heard -

A daytime TV presenter asking someone 'How was you feeling when that
happened?'

Another daytime TV presenter giving fashion tips 'I have seeked out some bargains this week'

Note to self: STOP WATCHING DAYTIME TV. Rant over.

numberplease, you're right about "Auld Lang Syne" (although not as many people as should, actually know the words), but what really gets up my nose is when it's pronounced Old Lang Zyne! angry How "au" can say "o" to anyone beats me, and why do they assume that a perfectly innocent "s" is a "z"?
