V-Flyer

..has fallen.

I have just heard a BBC news reader pronounce something as "somethink".................NOOOOOOO.

Next it will be "could of" and "would of" and "fed up of"........NOOOOOOO - whatever happened to with and have, what did they do wrong? And don't get me started on "myriad of".............NOOOOOOO.

I am going to take a chill pill and have a lie down in a darkened room.

Sorry, you're too late, I've heard "gonna" even on Radio 4 !

Perhaps unsuprisingly, I blame Blair...

I'm just waiting for the day when the news is read in footballeresque present tense: 'Yesterday, the prime minister comes into the Commons, stands at the dispatch box, and he says...'

Mark, surely it would be "he turns around and says" Why do people always have to "turn around and" now - don't face to face conversations exist anymore? I heard that three times on Jeremy Kyle yesterday.

Innit.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Couldn't agree more! I heard a sports commentator talk last week about somebody's 'DEE-BUTT' (with the accent on the fist syllable) for their team!

"I was sat in Upper Class".
Surely not!

I can't believe some of the crap they cover on BBC Breakfast these days, I wish they would just do news rather than this magazine type stuff.

Wow, has V-Flyer been acquired by a consortium of Daily Mail readers I wonder...

Like er whatever
