Had to laugh at David Cameron accusing Argentina of "Colonialism."

Has he not heard of the Britsh Empire?

And I just love the bull shytes that said they were on boad HMS Sheffield and lived to tell the tale without any burns.

Out of 281 crew 20 died and 26 were injured. That leaves 235 uninjured who lived to tell the tale without any burns. Fancy walking into a room full of them and telling them they're bullshitters?

Does she mean colonialism ? Ooops sorry, I forgot ' dyslexia' funny how people always play that card, can't dyslexics check their spellings if unsure ? Confused

They can use spellchecker but they can't always determine whether the suggested word is the right word. I doubt that Panda is dyslexic though, more like getting her fingers in a knot. Are we going to get flamed for every typo now?

Well she claims dyslexia and yes jen i know exactly how it works, I was merely pointing out that although someone may be dyslexic it does'nt always follow that they are bad spellers, it just takes them longer to get it correct and its a poor do when someone who can't be bothered to check a spelling shouts ' im dyslexic '.
I seriously doubt it was a typo, typo's are always forgiven as everyone makes them, rather I think she got the word wrong because she does'nt even know what she's talking about, as confirmed by the HMS Sheffield quote !!

Not attacking, just batting one back for the good guys ( in my humble opinion only)
