or

This comprises a metal bracket and screw.


The first one I think but I see lots of people omitting the 'of'
Officially, "comprises" means " is made up of" or "consists of", so the "of" is redundant.
so even the supposedly educated can get it wrong

I'm glad someone else dislikes this ... I think uneducated estate agents are the worst offenders
In order to address this, the local authority has set up a progress team comprising of the headteacher, some members of the governing body and the local authority adviser.

White socks and slip on's usually accompanied with (posted very early in thread) a wolf T shirt or fleece type affair, a massive bunch of keys on belt and one of those stupid FU@KING telephone ear piece's because obviously whilst they are undoubtedly unemployed they have so many calls and such a hectic life they simply don't have the time to hold a telephone, that or they have clawed, hooked or webbed fking hands. Oh and this ensemble will definitely be topped of with a mullet or a fking pony tail, and we all know whats under a ponies tail. C@NTS the lot of them.

This will make an interesting read for sure. Within the publicity for the book the author alludes to Saviles connections with Police hierarchy as well as his closeness with Royal's.

having been a bit bored over the last few weekend's, I've taken to trying to make a bit of cash with the online bookmakers/casino's etc.


I have completed most of the decent matched betting offers.


I have now taken to roulette, which Im actually doing quite well at. Ie keep spinning take note of sequence's etc, then when time is right, bung £4 on red, if it loses, double it to £8 on red etc until i win.
