    Yes, I'll give you that, but E is the most common letter, and often used to change the pronunciation of the the word, as in ton/tone. But there are other letters which appear to have no purpose and could be omitted without changing the word. eg. P in Psychology.

    Here is one a bit different. There are lots of words in the English language which have silent letters. The G in gnome, the P in psalm, etc. Have you any idea of the most common silent letter?

    With all the explanation of how the puzzles work, I forgot that I hadn't loaded the next one.
  7. Here's something really random. My son works from home 3 days a week and goes to the office on the other two. When he works in the office, he usually gets home between 7.15 and 7.30 pm. The dog starts barking at the door from 7.15, and yaps till Andrew walks through the door. Andrew is currently on 10 days holiday in Thailand with a couple of mates. The dog still barks at the door from 7.15 till we reprimand him.
  8. He threatened to wipe out a civilisation. This is the guy who demanded the Nobel Peace Prize!

    Quickies part 2

    Watching Sunrise this morning with closed captions. They referred to Shirvo (Matt Shirvington) as 'cherveau'.
  10. Keeping pace with inflation is not making a profit. It means not falling behind.
  11. He's backed down again, saying he'll hold off for 2 weeks while he negotiates through Pakistan, It's supposed to be a double sided ceasefire.
  12. Reports on ABC 10.20 pm news that America has attacked the military base on Kharg Island, but not the oil depot.
  13. On today's midday news, he has been arrested again. I had the sound muted, but one banner across the bottom of the screen said "for murder", and I think an earlier one said "for was crimes".
  14. re The Nissan Leaf. When I bought my 20 year old Holden Astra 2 years ago, it was $6,000 with RWC, 3 months rego and 6 months warranty. It's still doing me fine. I only do around 160 km per month and usually travel those short trips to the shops or Men's Shed alone. If I was to go electric, the Leaf would suit me, but I'm happy the way things are. $20 of ULP91 does me about a fortnight.
  15. kilowattcars.com.au have a number of Nissan Leaf used cars for, $12,000 drive away with RWC and 3 months rego.
