This thread seems like a good place to try you lot out with the following:
DON'T CHEAT - DO IT PROPERLY.
Count the "F's" in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.........(see below)
Three is normal, four is quite rare.
TIP! Best way to do these types of tests is read them backwards as your brain does not register the words as words but as letters...if you know what I mean!!!!
Who needs to know how to spell when you can press F7
I have a spelling checker.
It came with my PC.
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot sea.
Eye ran this poem threw it,
Your sure reel glad two no.
Its vary polished in it's weigh.
My checker tolled me sew.
A checker is a bless sing.
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when aye rime.
Each frays come posed up on my screen
Eye trussed too be a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.
Bee fore a veiling checker's
Hour spelling mite decline,
And if we're lacks oar have a laps,
We wood bee maid to wine.
Butt now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flare,
Their are know fault's with in my cite,
Of nun eye am a wear.
Now spelling does knot phase me,
it does knot bring a tier.
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped word's fare as hear.
To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.
Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear four pea seas,
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting want too pleas.

I should really be on that programme!!!
Why? because you look akin to that of a pre-pubescent homo sapien?

P.S. I seem to be responding to a lot of your posts recently. Can't think for the life of me why.

Possibly because your posts always leave something to be desired, i.e. a reply from me.

I'm off before I get a Flambé!
PMSL at mybrainhurts!
You pulled me up on mis-spelling licence a month or so ago (although wasn't really the time or place TBH!), and this is at least the second time since then you've gone off on one about the same spelling of the word
To be fair, it has reminded me of its correct spelling, so thank you, but it's so irritating when people correct people's spelling on the 'net when often they're typos! Not the place!
Anyway, my bugbears :
weird NOT wierd
correct use of practice/practise
Edited because it sounds like I'm having a go at mybrainhurts, I'm not
