English speakers who add a non-existent "r" into words e.g. what a draughtsman does - DrawRing or the girls name AmandaR Hard to explain, but I'm getting increasingly annoyed by the way that the "main" BBC news weather person "performs" the weather report rather than just reporting it. E.g. "Watch out" for showers in the south-west rather than "there will be some" showers in.... Anyway - Friday's faux pas are - 221. The shoe has completely changed from one foot to the other. 222.

The Operators have to be manned at all times. 235. The committee are doing all the running. 236. We're peaking up to a lot of troughs. 237. This sounds like crying milk. 238. Swimming is a better exercise than all these aerobatics. 239. He was torn to threads. 240. He's just going over the coals. re 234 - the female operators liked that rule!
