An ironing board advertised in Woolies as an "ironing bored".
Made me laugh!!!

My daughter's spelling is hilarious. One notable example was to replace the "a" with a "u" in the word "can't"............try reading that with a straight face on parents evening !!!!!!!!!

Excellent examples - thanks!
Another one I spotted recently in the window of Fillers sandwich shop was "Terkey"!
I do wish teachers would stop teaching children to spell phonetically, or maybe I don't as I enjoy the end result!!!

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue

Eye strike a key and type a word

Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
