well i WOULDN'T, I use spell check .I do.
I have always wished i was good at any level English and i have come along way from the girl who left school with very little learning .But i was lucky I had a good Husband who taught me to read. and never put me down.Spelling still not good nor writing.but I'm no fool!
It is NEVER to late to learn something new. Mind you They are Lovely words,good face muscle exercise .

Col I was good at everything except maths..,.I just couldn't fathom it all out.
It didn't help my maths teacher liked to take the 'P' out of the kids who did find maths hard....so we were reluctant to put up our hands and ask for help.
I have learned far more since I have left school.

Spelling I was very good at until I left school and the need to spell didn't feature in my job or long after that. With the result I now find I have to think about how to spell a word, usually small words I find difficult...but I am long past caring about it.

Nice to see you again btw.

I was like you at school hoobity-boobity....... I don't even know where the spell checker is, just rely on me........but I have noticed that some words I have to think twice about, and one of them is weird........I often spell it wierd because I think it looks right.........another one is haemorhage, and I don't know if that is spelled correctly or not.....and if I am not sure I put (sp) in brackets.....
