I have the scottish version !

Ode to the Spell Checker

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
miss steaks eye kin knot sea

Eye strike a quay and type a word
And weight four it two say
Whether eye am wrong oar write
It shows me straight a weigh

As soon as a mist ache is made
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew

Hello Trevor,

First. Post 2 of this thread was originally a sweary word and has been censored.
Second. If XX deliberately spoils Jolan's thread again I'm willing to break my habit of a lifetime and report the scumbag (with a full explanation).
Finally. How did I find out. First hand- I was banned for a making an "inappropriate comment" (in an exchange with Des,etc). Re-instated on appeal.

@ Mandala - I am using Firefox so how do I switch on spellcheck? Is it in tools? @ Julie, Aberdeen - love the poem, made me laugh! Trevor, welcome back and to everyone else, if anybody messes with Jolans 5 again then report!
