McB.....so many times i post something and then when i read it back, i have to go back again and edit my spelling mistakes!!

It can't be due to "Senior Moments" because i am only 27.

Well, i am in my head anyway! ;-)

I think you should go back and complain McB and ask why a Numpty taught you to spell "tought" instead of "taught"! :-D

I am sure it has always been Forty and ninety, never seen them spelt any different.
