    Bear in mind (as in bearing, rather than Grizzly!)

    it depends - are you thinking about naked boys or bears?

    This often confuses me, but I think it's bear. Because 'bare' means either naked or to tolerate.

    If it is in the sense of 'keep in mind', then it is 'bear'.

    (Obviously, if you're thinking of someone nekkid, then it is the other)...

    EDIT: Really must type faster when someone hands you such an open goal

    Isn't bear to tolerate? As in 'I can't bear it'?

    I've often seen her little lamb
    But I've never seen her bare

    Definately 'bear'.

    How about this one. Is it 'hear hear' or 'here here'? Both could legitimately be correct, as in 'I hear you' or 'I agree over here'

    It's 'hear hear'. People always get that one wrong on DS!

    Oops, I get that wrong too then :o

    I thought it was "here here" as in "here, someone agrees with you here" lol
