I 'Knew' They Were Iliterate...

There's too many folk on here abusing the word 'knew'.

Are you really that illiterate?

I 'new' it...

Deeply embarrassing.

sir bob (6625)
When men were men and women new it

It's a bit like your friend not knowing the difference between no and know.
But you haven't mentioned that.

Why are you puzzled Jarvo? your friend has been typing no instead of know for years, and you have said nothing about it, but yet you have a go at Sir Bob for doing it just the once.

It is taking the Mick out of your new found buddy. I am sure you no who they mean. Have you given up on album??

Broady, and Baz when he joins us.

Jarvo is taking a sabbatical on albums That's two Bs one T.

Broady, it is no use trying to communicate with Jarvo.

He never answers you, he just puts one of these on

"I 'Knew' They Were Iliterate".


I thought there were to Ls in Illiterate

So their is EQ.

Maybe someone could edit the title for him?

Agree with Peter, who cares which "no or know" I use, at my age it's not really important, unless you just want to cause trouble.

Welcome back jarvo.

I see your sense of humour hasn't improved with age either

Teacher in classroom, "children I would like you to write down the word right".A few minutes later ,"right bring your papers to me". After inspecting the papers she says,"Billy Wright you have written the word right wrong, so write the word right, right and get it right this time".

I think I wrote that right not sure ,its a long time since I heard that one,

"Agree with Peter, who cares which "no or know" I use, at my age it's not really important, unless you just want to cause trouble."

So you are saying that Jarvo just wanted to cause trouble reprimanding Sir Bob?

Here they come, the bother makers., stirrers.

Basil, your mate Jarvo has reprimanded Sir Bob for his spelling. You have stated that anyone who does that just wants to cause trouble.
Do you not understand what you are writing?

Unless they want to cause trouble.

I am talking about how "some people" are with me

Always trying to cause trouble and stir things up.

I hope jarvo is right about the new site and getting rid of the nasty ones.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Unfortunately, the multis remain - for the time being.

But things are in motion to wipe them from the face of the earth.

I see that 'yowth' from Norfolk has finally taken a powder.

Well done, Sister Rose, for pushing her over the edge.

t's a good job you're not a multi!! You spend all your time inventing threads and then posting continuously on them!!

How many user names have you got Jarvo?

Jarvo,
Name these multis or do they only exist in your mind. As they say put up or shut up.

"But things are in motion to wipe them from the face of the earth."

Didn't the Germans try that once?

Little scrawny deluded fellow if memory serves.

Who,

...It sounds suspiciously like the squaddie from Ince, that one does.

But I could be wrong...

Maybe the baldy bouncer from Hindley?

Ashes soon.

pinocchio.......

...Gembee: I love you posting on here.

Always have done.

Grasping at straws as usual Jarvis?

By the way stop threatening people, there's a good chap.

(Or is it in the blood)

It seems to me that Jarvo is implying that he NOSE what is happening on the KNEW Wiganworld.

His nose is far enough up certain dark places, an dats fer shure!

means he is lying again.......hence....

No reply to my 13.53 I notice.

Did you really expect one?

Billybull......

...Ice Queen...Literally.

Know, no
Their, there, they're
Where, were, ware, wear, we're
New and knew
As and has
Misused apostrophes
Bad grammar

Seriously? This is a board designed to COMMUNICATE and people do that whichever way they are able. I've known many folk who are dyslexic but there is no shame in that, as long as they are able to COMMUNICATE to others.

I still read on here, but rarely post any longer because of the immature attacks and infantile bickering which is non-productive.

Don't be a such a hypocrite. I remember you ripping into a young lass on the forum section, who was asking for help finding a job.
And what did you tell her about her spelling an grammar?
I also recall you getting a telling off for the condescending way in which you spoke to her. And not by me either.

Don't come pontificating here, some people have long memories, Mary M.

Mary?

Weer, Wurr, Wasthi

Wi, Wussn't, Theer

I agree with mollie. Trouble is "some people" are more interested in causing trouble, attacking people and coming out with nasty comments.

Jarvo. That is her name, although she would never admit to it.

Bazzz. Why don't you just moggy off.

IT WILL BE REFRESHING TO SEE THE BACK END OF YOU JATH THE MICROBE.

Hahahaha, agree.

It'll be refreshing when the 5 times banned Walsh gets his final marching orders.

Billy. The back end of me is all you are worth.💩

Merry Christmas. HO HO HO!

at least by reopening this old thread, it passes time why your sat in the office.

Should get some work done then time will flyLeft school over 50yrs ago and still get mixed up with words wether it be-
too or to
has or as
new or knew
there or their
where or were
the list is endless and has long as folk understand it I will loose(lose) no sleep over it

Johnny baggles arguing with himself.

At least it gives you something to post about.

At least it gives the breakdown truck driver something to post about.

Jarvo, I must admit that I too am guilty of the occasional grammatical error. However, I have perused some of my historic posts and it is apparent that this is due to when I post from my phone and predictive text takes over.
But, my main reason for getting into a rage over grammar is in the rules of the apostrophe. The rule is quite simple and I am particularly annoyed when shop signs are blatantly ignorant of the rules.
I now offer a poem I published a while back...

I was absolutely furious

the other day

when I realised that

someone

had nicked my apostrophe



but the worse crime

was committed

by the person who returned it

and

put it back in the wrong place!!!

JR, I'm not the best, I get loads of stick on here for it but it never stopped me from providing for my family and making sure they don't go short.

Basil Brush, I have 2 friends who have never been able to read, write and do maths properly. One ran a successful building firm, the other is a world renowned artist and sculptor.

Johnny was a sweeper upper. Hasn't worked in years

jr, I'm sure I read/heard that someone in the scrap business was the same but ended up a millionaire through grafting.

Terry Walker from Bolton

The male cleaner of the old horrible toilets down Wallgate had a visitor who was a new supervisor,he asked the cleaner to sign his name on a form,just to confirm he was the cleaner,the poor chap told him he was illiterate so therefore couldn't sign.The supervisor told him that wasn't acceptable,and was fired,the poor chap had worked there for years.To cut a long story short he gathered what money he had saved and took himself off to America.
He discovered through friends that he had a business brain and soon became a millionaire.At a dinner party one night one of his friends said "Just imagine all this wealth and you still can't read nor write where would you have been if you could" to which he said "I'd be down Wallgate cleaning toilets"..My Grandma told me this,she lived in Wallgate at the time this happened.

I never KNEW there was toilets down Wallgate. You learn something NEW every day!

On the left hand side going down Wallgate,under the bridge,they were bottle green wrought iron and they smelled terrible.

Momac, your Gran's story reminded me of THIS !

Thank you Tonks,it's on the same theme..I believe the story got into one of our local papers at the time,I'd love to find it..but doubt I'd find it now.

I never noo that

I remember the bogs in Library Street
Thunder Ground ones
Greenough Street, they were Wrought Iron, very Stinky and Pea Green in colour
Cemetery Road
Hingley
Top 'o' Pem
Wigan Lane

Top of Pem ones were recently demolished and in its place is a hairdressers named The Privvy. I kid you not.
Also managed to cram another premises there too, that's still to let.
I wonder what that will be named.

Tommy,I've seen the one in Greenough St on Album photos,I'll see if I can find it again.

They were on the left hand side as you go down Wallgate. Just before you went under the railway bridge near the North West Station. And they stunk mons hey! The ones in Greenhough Street smelled like a perfume factory compared with the ones in Wallgate

There where toilets down wallgate just before the Pier where the road divides,Also in Chapel Lane,Warrington Lane near The Foundry inn &Top of Whelley Brow.

Once upon a time every town had lots of public toilets.
These days there doesn't appear to be any drive by Councils to make them available. I've visited many towns that don't provide any; crazy when it's what people not only want but need. I've seen the results of market research where toilets appear high priority, but mostly ignored by the people who have prompted the research. It's as though the people in the 'high castle' who make the decisions say "OK, we see what you think you want, but really you would be better off with the alternative facilities we intend to give you!'
