Commuting thoughts
"How long does it take for you to get this into your thick skull?" was a question I was bombarded with many times during my education.
However all them school lessons must have finally paid off for now I am even noticing grammatical mistakes as I commute to work.
I was driving down Ponsonby Road today when I noticed an interesting billboard, for an emergency 24-hour clinic, which goes something like:
"Worried about the baby at 2am in the morning? Don't lose sleep over it."
You would like to think that sign-writers had a bit more of a grasp on the old English.
Secondly, if you were worried about your child at 2am and decided to take them to the 24-hour White Cross clinic, wouldn't you still be losing sleep?
