I quite agree.Whilst regional accents are fine( Like most people I have one myself) it seems now that a culture of 'Gangster talk 'has begun to change the language.I think a lot of this is Americanized English. Coupled with text speak and writing this has helped in the downfall of good grammar...

My Dyson cleaner battery is on the way out after 3 years of punishing daily service.Do you think if I asked really nicely they would send me a new one to 'try'.I would give an objective review as if I'd never used one before.I'm a faithful long time customer. :mysmilie_12:xxxxxx:mysmilie_17:

I think JR may well have been the culprit .These Americanisms in speech make me think the presenters have a burning desire to join Q 'across the pond'.Perhaps they have more zleb status over there.When they mention the price of items in dollars and one knows for a fact they have worked in dear...

I actually wouldn't mind one of those kits-with a box of chocs to eat as I made it.Makes a change from the usual .:mysmilie_852::mysmilie_14:

I cannot remember who the presenter was.(possibly CH ?)All I know was annoying repeated pronunciation of the words' lilac'- 'li-lack and 'pastel' -''pastell' to describe colours.I remember it because it sounded so put on.

QVC never seem to want to answer Pat's posts.I call that downright rude.

As it's getting towards Christmas,will they drag out my favourite -the revolting carousel with the frightening ,badly painted horses?Guaranteed to traumatise small children.Also for last minute table gifts don't forget the old standby, "Poo Pourri".That hasn't graced our screens for...

I like some of Anttthony's 'costumes' .It is very strange that for such an artistic person his designs are so very plain and boring.There is nothing standout about them.You couldn't look at one of his designs and say "That's by Anttthony".A good point Vienna.

Me too.Shoes and handbags don't float my boat. :mysmilie_19:

Just caught a repeat of the Hanowa Swiss watch show.The name Hanowa sounds as Swiss as the name Fu Manchu.I don't think these watches have seen the Alps .A 'bargain 'at £99.99 for one model .I have lost count of the number of times the words '100 percent Swiss made ' have been mentioned which...

I often wonder whether there are some poor little Chinese sweat shop workers who have no shoes but walk around with sub standard LG bags from the waste.Ones with misshapen frames upside down eyes and no straps.How designers get rich making out their overpriced designs are anything but ethically...

Some battery operated things are ok.If you are intending to use something over a long period of time I think mains is always superior. Changing batteries every few hours in some cases is ridiculous and costly .Charging rechargable gadgets uses electricity anyway although some rechargeable...

I would love to go for a look around in the guise of a writer with a book ' stuck ' inside in need of expert guidance to free it.I have a good mind to book in as soon as possible and when places are available(sure OH would pay to get rid of me).I could end up being a famous author too ......even...

It would appear Joe Remblance has decided on a career change.He has 'gone over to the other side' and will now be a craft presenter on C&C.Is someone about to get the boot or is Joe getting too hot in the kitchen? Quote Facebook "A warm welcome to the unique and ‘cheeky chappy’ Joe Remblance...

I like the Tu range and miss not having a Sainsbury's in my town.I loved the children's stuff too and also bought some of the school uniform from there.I do go in after work when there's a sale and I'm near a Sainsbury's. SisterBliss I should keep wearing your bright stuff if you love it.You...

I thought the boots and skirt JK wore in the Isaac Mizrahi show didn't look right together.What annoyed me more was the discussion over what colour they were 'calling ' the tops and the favourite word debate.My favourite word for that show was c***.

He would love that wouldn't he?A chance to talk about himself and be condescending to the interviewer.A real smug-fest .I bet there would be food involved too.

I can.......it's annoying.

Ha ha ha.Whilst the absence of Dear Andi is not really of much importance,it would be interesting to know if he has ,like many before him ,been silently replaced.The banquet of emojis is rather amusing and appropriate but needs a few more pies I think? Anyway ,q hasn't replied as they rarely...

This young lady doesn't look too happy with hers.:mysmilie_17:
