Why is that being a pedant?
It's the easy criticism on here and generally in life these days that if you like things to be right you're instantly branded a pedant. It's not being a pedant, it's being right.
If what you have written is correct then it is correct, nothing pedantic about it.

He is being a pedant as you said
"I"
He corrected to
"I'll"

So he could have just said you were wrong and not mentioned being a pedant.

Quite a few rumours earlier today that Simon Cowell was a goner. But he seems to have survived a nasty fall. He doesn't seem well at all.

It's defo real and not a pub stunt. He's been in and out of hospital several times in recent months. And you can see he's aging fast now and slowing down. The signs are not good.

Well, Sinitta has been in there for decades, but she's hardly hiding - or serious

Stefano Salvatori, former professional footballer, dies at 49...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41828908
http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/footba...

Formerly at AC Milan, Atalanta, and two spells at Fiorentina. Best known in the UK to Scottish football fans, and part of Hearts' 1998 Scottish Cup-winning team. It's no age at all to be dying. No word so far on what 'illness' it was that took him, but it's unnerving seeing announcements of the death of people so close to my own age. frown

I'm reluctant to say it but I can't shake off the feeling that Billy's knighthood has been, er accelerated a bit.

Sincerely hope I'm wrong.

I sincerely hope so too but he's been suffering with Parkinson's and prostrate cancer since 2012

Yes, I thought the same after googling his age (57). What a life though...
