    That the word 'we' isn't spelt 'wii'.
    That The Famous Five were very real to us.
    That Vinyl LP's were really cool to have.
    That if you had an imagination you could while away many an hour of boredom.
    That you have other digits besides your thumbs (for texting) and your middle finger (for insulting adults)
    That your parents WERE once cool too!

    That the word "spelled" isn't spelled "spelt".

    That the word "spelled" isn't spelled "spelt".

    Only if you're in the USA. It's fine in British English.

    The word 'spelt' is past tense of the word 'spelled'.
    I wrote, I spelled, I spelt..

    No, they're all past tense. Spelt and spelled are interchangeable.

    exercise ,most kids seem to be driven to school, and because of our great educational system, theres very little sport at school, thats presuming theres a school field as many schools are just a collection of portacabins ,as there was no money left in the boom years to build new modern schools.if school x took the money spent on renting cabins for ten years, they could build a proper school.
