Nice one Tezzer, you got me, but as a matter of courtesy I will spare you my thoughts on quoting an entire post in order to refer to a single word....dear chap. I made a point of not saying that you have to be a black belt of academic English. We happily turn a blind eye to the occassional typo and I am sure none of us would claim to never make a mistake.
My point stands however. I, and most of the contributors to this thread, have been through RAF selection, OASC's English assessments, IOT at Cranwell, Defence Writing / Written Comms, ISS, and so on. We all know that if you routinely turn out sentences with as many errors as words, you will join the 99.9% of applicants who don't make it through selection. The banter may be harsh but the motivation is to help our man Gareth.
