We all know how fiddly they are, but the very worst of it seems to be when using a tablet (kindle fire in this case)

So far I have come very close to posting "chummy", "Yvonne", chenille, chagrin, and thread. All because I forgot to "set" what I had typed and predictive text threatened it's wicked way.

I wonder if anyone else knows what the flip I'm talking about. [chummy]

I've only just looked at the Christmas emoticons. That grinning one looks positively malicious.

It always does. [Afghan]

That can't be right. Not enough letters. [chummy]

Yes! I know what you on about! In fact, I asked you about this very thing 5 minutes ago, on your 'I think we should have a thread on...' thread. If you see what I mean.
