Proofing, because proofing is needed
Oct. 21st, 2009 08:21 amThe Chair of the Residents' Association has emailed me the draft of the latest news letter, which is a good thing, because a few things have evidently slipped past the spell-chequer.
My particular favourite is the use of 'intimated' for 'intimidated' - it sort of changes the whole tone of the article about the brothel in one of the streets!
One of my new office colleagues (from an office of four, I'm now in an office of three) is something of a plant afficionado - we have a veritable wall of foliage around the desk, which is kinda awesome to behold. I do wonder how quickly he might notice if more plants were added on a surreptitious basis; have this vision of the entire floorspace ending up covered with a dense forest of yucca, ferns and cheese plants :-)
