Hi Paul

I agree that putting stress on the second syllable is irritating - Boris is a culPRIT !

It also seems that any noun can be used as a verb nowadays - I heard someone on Radio 4 this morning wanting to caveat something.

Surely you have the wrong vowel in your Boris example?

Chrise

Ha Ha!

I`m also reminded of a certain town in North Lincolnshire!

I believe that inhabitants had to mutate their town's name in order to pots on some websites....

btw Phil the Greek is dead at age 99 - does the BBC need to show the same tribute programmes on both BBC1 and BBC2 simultaneoulsy? I'm missing my cooking programmes.

I enjoyed your cryptic hints on another thread. I thought you might struggle on a sporty one,

Paul

I have heard a lot of your vakSEEN as in "I was vakSEENed yesterday". Very annoying in several ways.

Grunger,

Thanks, I can cope with a very basic level of sporty stuff - and I know my limitations!

Grunger Malone

I was pleased that a woman won the race. She is clearly a fine horseman.

Jigjag

Yes , she displays great horsemanship and sportsmanship.

Jigjag, Grunger

Yes, it was pleasing that a woman won the race - and even more pleasing that I have seen no descriptions of her being a 'lady jockey'.

Jigjag, do you need a hand to find the two missing letters from your earlier post? The 'w' and 'o' have gone walkabout...
