I like:
The sponsor page - I'm working my way through it

Greenguy

Jim

The Radio Show - although I wish I could comfortably listen to it live in the UK

I dislike:
English speakers who criticise foreigners for their poor grasp of English but who then go on to misuse "then" when they mean "than", "alot" when they mean "a lot". "there" when they mean "their" etc

Amen, eman!

Though that affront is balanced by the thoughtful suggestions eventually offered to non-native speakers of the tongue...another "LIKE" for us with regard to this board.

(We will stay off the grammar soap box as best we can!)
