Just Under the Wire

Took this on my way home, about 20 to midnight, remembering that I hadn't yet blipped!

Went out for dinner with my friend Sue to celebrate my birthday. Had a great time.

Give Way. Did you know that no word in the English language ends with the letter V? It always has an E after it.

Also, 'way' is one of the very, very few English words that begins with Wa, but isn't pronounced 'wo', like was, wander, and want.

I learnt that from Al who told me that his teacher told him that there was once a witch who hated oranges, but loved apples, so changed all the O's for A's whenever they appeared after the Witchy letter W. He learned a rhyme about it which began, 'Witchy Witchy Woo, Oranges taste of Poo' which he thought hilarious.

I know a hundred mnemonics, rhymes, tricks and tactics for spelling and reading.
