On an ironic, pedantic note, shouldn't 'Misspelt' read 'Mispelled' or am I barking up the wrong tree?

pedantry is good and i think you might be onto something there Demmerz.

Good post.

There was a shop near me, one of those indoor market stall shops which only last a month or so, and instead of having a sign saying 'Closing Down' they has a sign saying 'Closed Down' despite being open for business!

LMFAO - That's priceless

I remember someone telling me that the local Irish club (seriously!) had a sign saying something along the lines of 'Now opening late on Tuesdays....from this Thursday onwards'
