"Maybe that is how it works in Britain?"

This wouldn't surprise me. British Universities are having to teach basic English (And maths) to undergraduates. Most of my colleagues are educated to degree level, yet cannot produce reports that make sense. Our customers produce technical documents that are so badly written I can't actually understand them. When I comment on grammatical errors making it hard to read, they just get the hump about it. With some of the stuff we do, it the specification isn't absolutely clear, then the software we produce isn't going to work.

I once refused to go into a shop called "Sweet Memory's" due to the abuse of the apostrophe.
