Ha! Ha!

He may have executed about 57,000 people.

He really was a nasty piece of work.

It has got nothing to do with what schools teach, it is how much interest the pupil has and how much value they placed on their studies.

You should not blame teachers for lazy indifferent pupils.

Ha! Ha!

Part of the problem is a lack of sub-editors presumably. There seems to be very little checking of grammar, spelling, pronounciation - or facts, it seems - in today’s media. I’ve heard two different BBC journalists mispronounce ‘femme fatale’ just this week. It’s French, innit?!
I do wonder if these mistakes are ever picked up by their editors. Or maybe they don’t know the basics either!

Yahoo is most annoying, it can take over if you ever look at it on your device.

I think it is probably very easy to make unintended slip ups when being interviewed on T V, through nervousness.

Roxy S wrote it in an article.
Henry VIII is well known for many things: his eight wives, his desperate quest for an heir, his break with Rome, and the beheading of a huge amount of people under his orders including two of his wives.

Oh dear. Roxy Simons is a TV and film reporter.

How old is this journalist?

Children are allowed to drop history after Key Stage 3 now.

Divorced, beheaded, died, died. Divorced, beheaded survived, survived?

I wonder who she thinks the other two are - Mary Magdalene and Madonna?

Clearly been confused by his regnal number...

Let’s hope she doesn’t go to see the musical Six! As she will feel short changed 😆
