    Sorry, every one of my failed attempts, where I type a 'swear' that still gets changed to exclamations is amusing me:rotfl:! This'll be hours of fun if I don't get anything through at all:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. And thing is, from your POV, the name of the soup isn't being changed as you can't see what I'm typing!:T:j:rotfl:

    :eek:That was lucky. I've got 8 items on the receipt as we don't like all the versions of the soup. One of my soups has failed to appear:(, but it's not too bad as the voucher is still quite a lot in relation to what was spent!:eek::rotfl:. It looks like it is Cream of Chicken that has failed, so keep in view in case an mbuy comes on online and it becomes a trigger. I'm glad the ones I bought three of have appeared. Glad I bought the

    Just bear with me - I'm going to keep trying and changing the name of that "Leekie" version of the soup to use the worst word I can get that will get through without being changed! Keep trying different words:rotfl:. Hang on - I'm not going to use that one:eek:, no. (Just thought of something that would get through here but which would really make people object. It's a controversial album name by musician Nas that causes all the problems:D:rotfl:.)

    cheerleader - I spent 57p in m&s yesterday and got a till spit for £5 off £30. So might be worth spending a few pennies to see if you get one. I might combine this with my free £10 meal voucher (m&s current account) and £100 gift card which has been burning a hole in my pocket for a very long time. But even to spend £15 is going to be very difficult for me even though it is not real money.

    That's alright - strangely my mind has gone blank now:rotfl:. I've given up trying. I did buy three of that version though - see, I do like my !!!!-A-Leekie soup:rotfl:!

    So, I've given up (thank **** for that:rotfl:) and managed to get through the original word by deleting a hyphen. Thank goodness for that, as the name of the soup is acceptable anyway.

    Onto other things I hope...:D:rotfl:

    No, no, I prefer CockA-Leekie!:D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    So, you can now see the full word, shining there and attracting your attention!:D Looks rather nice to me:rotfl:. Much better - and pronounced with emphasis, which would never have been done had the censors not stepped into the matter in the first place.

    But, it's completely acceptable, because of its the name of the soup!
