One mate of mine, a top lad but just classic for this sort of thing once mentioned to us that he’d just filled up his car and was a little surprised at how expensive it had become, he said to his wife after he paid that he was ‘white as a sheep’ with surprise at the bill ?
we all corrected him to say that he would have actually been ‘white as a sheet’ but he wouldn’t have it, eventually proclaiming that he’d prove us ‘pisstaking barstards’ all wrong which he tried to do by asking almost 30 people all at once in a team meeting to which he found out rather publicly that he’d been saying it all wrong for more than 40 years!
he still claims that set him up somehow!
No no wonder we all called him ‘joey Leytonstone’ on account of his vocal deficiencies and where he was born ?
that bloke was a weapon and a half...

I thought it was white as a ghost. But just to be 100% let's say white as a ghost covered in a sheet.
Oo scared meself then!

I have noticed a thing with the under 30s where instead of using the well known phrase 'Fair enough'. They just say 'fair'. Which is fucking irritating. Not grammatically incorrect I suppose but it annoys the hell out of me

Personally I hate when people write "of" instead of "have"
Should of, would of, etc.
It's not really apparent when speaking, but writing it down that way just annoys me to no end.

Conversing with people saying "literally" 5 times every sentence and making it worse by using it incorrectly "and when it happened I literally died!"

"MAY I have..."
Grammar and punctuation, it's the difference between knowing your shit and knowing you're shit.
