A new report last week says that Twitter is 40% babble,methinks it's more likely tae be 99%,seriously,that place has to be a joke......like this.

"Today i went for a shit,then i cleaned my bum."

Ann the toilet cleaner from Dundee wants to follow you.

"Coffee was lovely but my dog knocked it all over me,got my willy burned."

Dr.Dolittle wants to follow you.

"12.45 p.m. it looks like rain for Scotland today,whats new?

Michael Fish wants to follow you.

Dooohhhhh.

Aw AB, I dumped mine, I had all sorts of weirdos, adding me.
Even someone who kept trying to flog me viagra, cheeky gits.
It's bad enough getting emails, telling me, I should lose weight.

Ah well Antibarbie, if that's the level of journalism you're going to go into, then you won't need to worry about spelling or grammar.

Alison - as I've said many a time, i never proof read my stuff on message boards; it's too much like a busman's holiday. In addition, i've been pretty ill the last two weeks so my concentration level hasn't been the best.

Fairdoos AB, but then again, you never know where a future employer might be.  As a former journalist I'd say take pride in everything you write.  But then again, that's just my opinion.
