Yes, much worse than misuse of hyphens or absence of pronouns.

Can't we just accept that nobody's perfect? No matter how good you think your grammar is there will always be somebody more pedantic who can pick holes in it if they choose.

Actually there is a view that while "whilst" and "while" are interchangeable, the correct usage nowadays is the latter rather than the former.
So the correct answer is "you should have gone to Asda".

You may well be right. It's possible that even I'm not perfect

No, just the blue plates. I thought it was a good deal as I had looked around in September for dinner plates and ended up with £1.99 white plate's from Asda:eek:

Hard times when we all have to sit here and pick holes in our grammar. Honestly, does it really matter in the end as long as you can read someones comments and understand them?
