I know this is petty but... it's BOUGHT not BROUGHT!

There have been a few threads in the last couple of days where people are using the word 'brought' instead of 'bought' - and it's really starting to wind me up.
Posters - you BOUGHT a property, you BROUGHT your problem to our attention for some advice. If you can't remember the right word, just use 'PURCHASED' instead.
I thank you.

Scary how many people get fundamental things like this wrong isn't it. I genuinely think you'd find it difficult to find a primary school who confuses 'brought' with 'bought'.

The silly thing is, they write it but they wouldn't say it like that. "I brought a new house".
I always want to ask where they brought it from and where they took it to. I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe
