@AlboMP I live in the UK but having seen the story of hero Austin Appelbee, 13, he deserves national recognition for his bravery, having swum for 4 hours in open seas to save the lives of his family

@itvanglia Twice today I have heard individuals described a 'neurodiverse' Please correct your grammar. The word (and suffix) 'diverse' is PLURAL. Only a population can be diverse. Autistic people are NEURODIVERGENT. - (singular)

@BBCBreakfast Sunday 14th Dec GCHQ riddle. The answer is 'special' I KNEW that the word 'last' having a capital letter was relevant but it took me til the evening to click!

@BBCBreakfast The answer to the question on Weds 10th (Sam Smith has a crisis at Christmas t-shirt, as does Matt Smith) is: It only contains letters from the word Christmas!

@BBCLookEast Re: the article about Herts inclusive theatre. Please use correct grammar!
The reporter mentions how it supports 'neurodiverse young people'. Those young people are NEURODIVERGENT. Only a population can be diverse, not a person.

[Lesley Nelson @lellynelly]

@BBCBreakfast Re: your article about Herts Inclusive Theatre. The reporter says 'neurodiverse' individuals. A person CANNOT be neurodiverse, it's a plural word. They are NEURODIVERGENT. (singular) Diverse = a group, divergent = a person. Please use correct grammar.

@BBCBreakfast On the subject of noise from phones, I spent 5 months in hospital on a cancer ward, and there was a middle aged lady in my 6 bed ward who made every personal phone call on speaker phone. It didn't help my mental health.

@BBCMorningLive I was diagnosed with stage 4 non-hodgkins lymphoma but the symptoms are identical to the menopause so was dismissed several times by doctors.
I was lucky, car-t treatment saved my life, but if you are worried, keep pushing!

@morninglive On the impact of returning cancer. I had non-hodgkins lymphoma 4 times!. I was given 3-6 months to live 4 years ago. Long story, and It left me disabled but I'm currently in remission

@HellmannsUK Shame on you. It's no wonder that youngsters today have no grasp of grammar when things like this are printed on labels.
It should say 60% FEWER calories, because the subject is 'calories' which are quantifiable.
