jimdfish Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Has anyone been watching Hard Spell. Those kids are brilliant. Aled and the Stagg, take note, 11 years old and they can spell like demons. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurcherboy Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Yes thats all very well Jim, But can they roll a 13 skinner? I seriously doubt it. What good will being able to spell do them when they go to the 'Dam LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red_stag88 Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Yes Jim, it does emabrass me that the majoritory of eleven year olds can spell better than me. I am due to keep to the simple words like Yes, No, Food and Water to save face. Heck why not become dumb as well - I never say the right things anyway.

Fisherman Mike Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Theres some right Geeks on that show though !!! I cant help thinking they should be outside enjoying themselves playing football or skipping and playing with toys.. not stuck in a dictionary swatting. I find it quite sad in an obtuse sort of way.

eugene molloy Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 How did I just know that Aled was going to beat the lot of us? He didn't beat me...and I didn't need a spell checker either!

Jonnyni Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Your good spelling is probably down to that old peoples pastime of crosswords Eugene. You don't expect us too believe you can remember back to your school days at your age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
