It's not the pronunciation of my surname that people get wrong, it's the spelling. It's only 4 letters but they always add an extra one.
It was even worse with my maiden name, it used to have lots of interesting spellings and rarely the correct one
Ha! This reminds me of my favourite birthday card.
I'm curious now, it's one time I wish there was private messaging on here.Hmmm, I wonder if yours is the same as my married last name. It's five letters but can be spelled with 4 and I get that spelling a lot if I don't specify
Lol I remember that being on the back of a box of matches, Bryant and May, years ago. Showing my age now !Ha! This reminds me of my favourite birthday card. View attachment 2161675
My first name is five letters long, most of you won't be able to pronounce it the way it should be - I know from experience and surname, even nope-r given that we have so many languages and dialects, a lot of my own countrymen can't pronounce my name correctly. And I'm sure I'll get a lot of your names wrong So I've got a shorter nickname that can be used as an alternative, and I ask for an alternative as well. Doesn't make anyone a racist or whatever agenda these idiots keep pushingMy maiden name is just four letters.FOUR. And it gets mispronounced all the time. I just correct it and move on like a MFing adult. I don't have to embarrass people to feel powerful.
Aren't the alleged kids approximately 21.5% Nigerian? I'm not a doctor or genealogist, you'd think they'd ensure any children produced in a lab or even conceived naturally *If, as Bookworm says, H may go to live in Africa, where does that leave the flatpacks?
Don't think he would because of who bought them. I doubt the king would be too pleased either.OMG - I am petty enough that I would do this if I were him! Reach out to the seller privately and then have Cath bust them out at a state dinner or TTC!
I have a feeling she will be papped on a lunch date with her next mark in the next few months. She'll thrive off the speculation.Thanks @LadyMuck
The below is gossip, but interesting.
Not true that the Stoat flew in on a commercial flight, he flew by private jet to London. Maybe flew back commercially, but no security was seen collecting the Stoat from the airport. Was he whisked away so no need for a baggage check?
As it was known when he allegedly left for Heathrow, the paps will have known when he was supposed to touch down in LA but nobody saw him.
The Ho has tried to drum up interest and products for The Tig, but companies know they'll have eyes on their products and a possible risk of negative connotation. The Ho faces the problem that companies are cautious about committing their products.
Who steps in to help? Markus Anderson, who has arranged for the Ho to stay in posh places and who has called in a favour here and there. There's speculation that the pap-walk was showcasing a few brands.
A subscriber told BookWorm that stories about the Stoats splitting up is planted propaganda, and that the Stoats have been leading separate lives since the death of the Queen. When the Stoat visits the children the Ho takes off, and any love displays are just for the camera as the Ho treats him like rubbish.
The Stoat is nervous about the Heritage Foundation business and fears he may lose the battle. Talks of going to live in Africa, as he doesn't want to go to the UK with his tail between his legs, but he knows the Ho will want to stay in the States.
Rumours are that the Ho is stalking her next boyfriend / victim. She was seen having lunch with a certain lawyer, and though it could have been business they were very touchy-feely. Then seen out again, looking cosy.
What is Markus's role? Is he her protector? Her procurer?
I hate that buzz term β[blank] lives rent free in your mindβ but on this occasion itβs appropriate..
My maiden name was mispronounced and even misspelled despite being typed at the foot of any correspondence. My Dad had the same problem when he worked. Despite his secretary typing his name at the foot of letters, the misspellings that came in in reply, were often hysterical. He used to keep all of them in a file and we found them when we were clearing his things after he died at the end of last year. It was a great laugh looking at them. I remember the hilarity amongst my colleagues when folk would phone looking for me and make a total horlicks of pronouncing my name. Yet, no matter how mangled the name was, they knew exactly who the caller meant.My maiden name is just four letters.FOUR. And it gets mispronounced all the time. I just correct it and move on like a MFing adult. I don't have to embarrass people to feel powerful.
Looked like a bleeping woman
I bet Dior wish it was the one on the right in their suit.
Edo looks clean and immaculately turned-out in a well-fitting, well-pressed suit.
Hazbeen looks like he and his suit spent a cosy night under a hedge in the grounds of Froggy Cottage.
here you go.Can anyone help please, I am trying to find the spoof video with the horses and grannys and backing up the carriage
