Of course most of the responders drop letters - they don't speak English, they speak Americanese! ;)

**ducks and runs**

I did (literally) LOL at 'but why are the ticky-boxes gone?'... Work is now looking at me in a very strange way.

Thank you.

See you tomorrow?

By the way? ALL H, ALL THE WAY, baby (except for the stuff Alli brought up, of course... honour and all that)

Oooooooooooooh, you put NZ in, thank you *smoochies* What about adding a section for people who say Haytche instead of Aytch for the letter H.

I've gone for With, the whole way, because mostly I DO use the H's in words... I work with telephones, so I have to be understood by people... it's really only when I'm at home that I get lazy!

this is b1 speaking - that sister who flamed her pillow a week ago and works 200km (b/w 120 & 130 mi I think) from home in a 'rural town' - some ppl with broad-ish Aussie accents actually say yooge, yooman, (yoo name it!) instead of actual h-pronunciation. it's rather yoomorous. (I the sister [b1] am in Syd atm, but l*** (my nickname for 'seldear' as her sister) is 100km away, which is why I write instead of speaking to her (as I would if we were in the same place)). btw l***, i'll c u tomorrow and we will have a nice early slumber party (with the emphasis on slumber). sleep well.

I really wanted a final choice of 'The ticky-box that goes B*O*O*M!'...
