Well, I have read a little theology, and I have heard of Pelagians and Predestinarians – but what do this lot believe – and why do they travel so slowly?
[thanks Andy, for the picture, which he took at Gayle Mill,Hawes, Yorkshire]
I used to proof read. The trick is to read backwards, that way your brain doesn't trick you into seeing what you think you should see. Jane x Was there also a sign for 'postdestrians'?
We all make typos, but, uh ... wouldn't you think they'd remedy the situation?
All I can think about is the root work I do with my students when teaching vocabulary. Trying to break this one down would be a trip ... "Pre means 'before', but ... uh ..."
I am so going to join this crew- all you runners can sprint straight on past- I'll be drinking tea with the predestrians and we'll have a nice chat about maybe walking soon!!
Oh, my!! If they're certain of the end, why get in a hurry?
ReplyDeleteAhhhh Hawes - on route to Isle of Man! Memories!
