Had some good news today on the Xmas cancellations front... anyone else experiencing an upturn?
Had 3 dates cancelled on me - 7th, 14th & 15th. Kept the booking fees.
So far rebooked 14th & 15th at £50 per night MORE than the original booking ('cos they were a charity I work for frequently) and now taken the 20th as well, which I wasn't planning to work.
So from what looked like being a stingey (sp?) Xmas I'm smiling again ;)
And I've still got the 7th off :o

Still time for those to be filled tho.:rolleyes:

Is it really too difficult to add one extra letter?

Perhaps it was a genuine mistake, or like me has mild dislecsia(SP), I often miss off letters from words.
Life's to short to be this picky. Chill!

All too often people use the dyslexia excuse for downright laziness, quite frankly it's an insult to all the genuine people here on the forum that do have dyslexia and make a genuine effort to overcome their obstacles. I'm extremely tired of people continuously using "text talk" here on the forum. Constant offenders will be reminded in the hope that they take heed to the forum guidelines. This isn't the first time (and most likely won't be the last time) that I've had to go over the same things.
I've added a few links below that might be of some use, I use both of them myself from time to time.

Well said that man!
Text talk is for mobile phones.
Unless I'm mistaken, this forum isn't a mobile phone!

I am dyslexic. Carol usually types for me. When she is not around it takes me longer to write often with spelling mistakes. I have been known to phone her at work to get the right spelling.
Who coined the word dyslexia anyway. We sufferers cannot spell it!:bang:

Which is the point I was making. True sufferers like yourself more often than not put extra efort into their posts, wheras I've seen a lot of other people just using dyslexia as an excuse for "lazy" literacy. I've started a separate topic HERE (http://www.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=9912) regarding the subject, hopefully we can steer this topic back on track.
Vectis, apologies for steering the discussion of course. :o

CyaIt's not a good idea to get arsey with site admins if you want to remain a member.
Or for that matter to use text talk when it is against forum rules, as has been mentioned in this thread already..
