Actually, and you'll be proud of me here, I was thinking about our use of the 'U' recently.
Actually, not just the 'U' but the whole 'ough'. Why isn't 'through' spelt 'throo'?
Rough? What's wrong with ruff? Hell! Go for ruf!! Trough = Troff.

I am of course, basing this on some of the utter CRAP spelling so often seen these days ...

Ah! Now THAT'S a whole other kettle of "phish" here, Ade!

Yep, so now you're touching upon things such as how is it the marque of motorcycle this famous guy who made his mark in Arabia during WWI is shown riding(and of course the marque of motorcycle he would ultimately meet his maker upon) is pronounced "Bruff Superior", and whereas it's spelled "Brough Superior"!



(...crazy language we share, isn't it Brough, err...isn't it Bro!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
