I see PB / Empathy Marketing have made another classic spelling mistake. You'd think they'd use a spell checker or have someone proof read it.

On question 5 of the Romantic Email Poll It says :
5. How would you respond if you recieved a romantic email?

When I went to school, I learnt "i" before "e" except after "c". Perhaps I'm showing my age !

Can someone please tell me with the John Lewis/Waitrose vouchers how long are they valid for.. (do they have an expiry date, like 12 months?)

They do not have any expiry date on them, just checked mine now,

I clicked on the Arcadia ad on the home page yesterday, and it said at the bottom in bold something along the lines of "Arcadia vouchers available until 28 August 2006". Thought this was a bit strange. I've been saving up for these for Christmas but ordered three yesterday incase they do indeed stop using Arcadia at the end of August. Just a word of warning...

I hope you are not showing your age as I am only 30 and I was taught this at school as well

EagerLearner

Me too (also 30) - 'i' before 'e'... except after 'c'!

only 30, ok I'm "only" 34. Although according to my 5 year old DS I'm nearly dead :eek:

Edit* oh no, what have I started ? There's a whole load of words here that don't comply with the rule before they start getting quoted to me LOL
