But you haven't even moaned yet...

So my blog was viewed an astounding 12 times overnight. Okay, fair enough, this isn't many but still....  I haven't told anyone I actually know about this so you're genuine strangers and you stumbled upon this.  You count in my mind. Thanks, readers!

I just wanted to write a quick post to let you know that my first big rant is a-coming and it's a good'un.

I'm tackling one of my real pet peeves: poor grammar and literacy by someone who should know better. It will probably be a recurring theme in this blog.

I understand that not all of us may be quite so passionate about the English language as I am but, even so, we must be aware that there a rules for us to follow.  It frustrates me when people of authority or businesses that have a lot of customers flagrantly ignore these rules.  They are there for a reason: to help us decide and understand what has been written.

Think of me as the Grammar Police.  I've already decided upon my target.  I've done my research; I've watched them for a long time and not intervened. I've let them break the law and, as much as it hurt me to do so, I stood down and merely watched, allowing me to collect vital evidence.

I am excited to finish collating this evidence against them and show the world their crimes.

I don't get out much.


Stay tuned.  Moaning is on the way.
