Grammar Discussions

I was disconcerted by a printed page taped inside the crockery drawer at a high end resort last weekend. There was a list of the crockery and cutlery in the self-contained apartment. Evidently there were two 'desert' spoons. Am I supposed to be outside digging in the sand? What a shocker!

My way of remembering which is which if you don't know: "dessert" has more sugar.

Was looking at a PDF menu from Rydges Canberra at the weekend - it was a Christmas menu - unfortunately whoever proofed it had a few problems - Ham with caaramelised pineapple, Brussel Sprouts w/ pnacetta and mini pavolva - I kid you not!
