"I nearly poo'd meself"
I'm complaining to both the BBC and Offcom about Mr Goodman's disgusting language and lack of grammatical excellence on tonight's show. He'll have to go.

It helps to know who you're complaining to before you actually complain.

Oh, and don't forget to add that he's a cockerney to the list of hanging offences for dear old Lennie.

That should be : 'To whom you are complaining' Really enero! You do let the side down. There's a thread lower down to get you changed for next year.

Really enero! You do let the side down. There's a thread lower down to get you changed for next year. ![]() "...who you're complaining to" is late 20th/early 21st English grammar. Wasn't it Winston Churchill who stopped a Times "Letters to the Editor" discussion on this topic by extracting the urine from the old fogeys with his "A preposition at the end of the sentence is obviously something up with which they will not put"? So right on, enero! Keep flying the flag for modern English! |

![]() If not, then surely "complete" is superfluous?

Perhaps I was too hard on Fleckerl.. From his user name he could be Austrian, so one ought to make allowances.
