Sick note for a pupil " Kayleigh has been off school with a bad couch".

Saw this sign yesterday.

I saw this on local internet news a while back.

I’ve just seen some flowers on Facebook described as Japanese enemy 😀💐

A newly qualified medical secretary (back in the day, using audio tapes for hospital clinical letters) was doing an orthopaedic clinic.

She typed “the patient was fitted with a Baloney dressing”

I checked her work over before her letters got sent over to the clinician for signature.

It was meant to be a “below knee” dressing!

Cattle wondering round the field.

There is (or was) an ice cream manufacturer somewhere in the West Country whose posters for their products were accompanied by text that described their happy cattle 'wondering' around the fields.

Our local food bank was advertised in the parish magazine as "Hungary No More"

Back to school has put out the latest batch of stationary offers.

Many years ago one of my students wrote that the astronomer circumcised (instead of circumscribed) the moon.
Another one maintained that the paralysed man (biblical story) climbed onto the roof. ???

My favourite is ‘chez lounge’ - seen in a ‘for sale’ ad.

It took me a little while to work out that they meant ‘chaise longue’!

I wonder if they had Unterjeans as well?
