I'm a lousy speller, I tried to cast one on my mother in law and instead of a frog she turned into a princess! seriously though until they invented dyslexia I thought I was just a lazy speller, have I missed it or is there a spellchecker on the site? I waste alot of time with a dictionary when I could be enjoying myself!

I'm not the best, so a write it in Word first then do a spell check before copying and pasting.

No spellchecker I'm afraid. 

Personally, I have an 'add-on' on my browser which spell checks for me.  Let me know what browser you have and I'll help you add one onto your browser if you like?

Google Chrome has a spell checker as well, although I'm another "type in Word & paste" poster.

Yes, indeed. English (US), as my Word dictionary calls it, should really just say American.  I dispute that it is really "English" any more.  It is like learning a new language over here, different spellings, different words, different meanings.  I'm not bilingual yet, but i'm getting there. ;D

The years have been good to me, it was the weekends that did the damage.
