The only version I can see that is missing is 'of / have'.
Otherwise, superb.

Whilst reading "Red" magazine last night Mrs.Maverick exploded with the kind of unbridled rage I normally only see when for example I empty the dishwasher and put a soup bowl back in the *wrong* cupboard. The subject of her annoyance was apparently that she has "had enough" of people miss-spelling the word "breathe", she cited an article in which the author had written "I need this like the air I breath" - according to Mrs.Maverick the miss-spelling of the word "breathe" missing its last E, has reached pandemic proportions and frankly its only a matter of time before she writes a sternly worded letter to points of view and encloses a box of cat poo.
This made me think of Piston Heads, briefly, whilst I agreed furiously and waited for her to calm down.
R.

If we could turn this into a thread on misspelt words in general, and on PH in particular, then one beauty I came across here this morning was 'owness' in place of 'onus'.

There was a thread a little while ago where someone said "no holes barred". Bit Freudian, I thought.

I had an email from my landlord yesterday using dia instead or dire. Also saw a story one of my sons friends had written about a magical land, and in that land lived a younickorn. Made me chuckle.

Why not. On the apostrophe thread the convention is to quote the guilty party (as long as it's a PH gaffe), should we do that here as well?

Just two I can think of that the Mrs continually says. I've given up reminding her now, I just cringe instead.

I lent it off so and so.
I've borrowed my car to so and so.
Normally northerners who are guilty of this

I'm conflicted. Partly pedantic and partly enjoying much spelling idiocy; "escape goat" always warms my cockles.
