Hi:

I didn't know that either and I pride myself on verbosity.

Pro tempore is one that I love using (for the time being).

Thanks

Assuming you do actually mean "verbosity", I can't say I've ever noticed you overdoing the prolixity!😁😂

I do indeed try and refrain from such a regimented application of garrulous lexica as it becomes difficult to rephrase when teaching secondary school children.

However, I have got them to use hyperbole correctly and jingoistic which I am quite pleased about. Next stop verisimilitude.

🤒 Loquaciousness in school children should be encouraged  (even if it's only to be able to spell it correctly)😂

How about just teaching them the Queen's English, for starters?

The last time I was in England, I didn't understand the youngsters on the Underground.

I was taught the Queen's English growing up in Rhodesia - no, I'm not going to be politically correct, here!

And I can still converse in the Queen's English today! Onomatopaeia, and all that stuff!

Funny...

This is at least the second time this has come up 👍

so meanwhile no more latin phrases.

But is a June / July prize draw really an alternative 👍

EDIT: things are getting fast - it's already october draw now.

Backup / restore running????

Sorry guys, i'm building and writing the Prize pages on my only day off...  it does involve a bit of switcheroo on the draws though - sorry 🙁

I'll be finished in a couple of hours, i've got to get my kids some tea now - my wife is working!
