Bad Spelling

I'm having to console a very unhappy Giant Rubber Goth Bat, the reason for his current attack of severe misery is that he believed what he had read only to discover when he got down to Machine Mart that they did not sell Angel Grinders after all.
This carelessness with spelling seems to be everywhere these days, with things that are being put on public display not being checked properly, because someone has decided that the computer's spell checker will correct everything - but has managed to magically turn it off or has not realised that it won't work if you spell something in CAPITAL LETTERS. So we end up with notices that tell you that you shouldn't park your vechicles outside or advertising sweat and sour pork, the list is endless...
