OK – I can't spell – Winjeel

Hi all

Quite rightly it has been pointed out to me by my Australian forumites that I have frequently mispelt Winjeel – The CAC trainer of which – thankfully we have a s#$^%t load of them flying here in Australia – This word Winjeel is Aboriginal for Young Eagle and I know how it should be spelt in this context – There are however in the broader context of the aboriginal communities 4 ways to spell it

Winjeel
Wingeal
Wingeel
Winjeal

The first however is the correct one in the context of the CAC product

I hope this clears up the confusion and I will now resume normal Mispelling of most things on my posts

Regards

Hi Macfire

Is it true it’s called Wanaka because you Kiwis couldn’t spell Wan*a

New Zealand – the place where alll the tourists wander about looking for some bloke counting chooks so they can get on planes – I never did find the Chicken Counter ?

Or as NAC used to say to our Aussie visitors:
“Sorry Okker the Fokker’s chocker”

Denys

Kiwi rivalry huh – well a lot of blood and beer has been spilt there – still at the moment Aus and NZ seem to have captured the world championship of Warbirds so I guess I don’t need to start a Kiwi beating thread. Love NZ anyway so I can’t wait till WoW next year.

So what are your areas of interest?

If I recall recently you owned up to being a Queenslander, so would it be inappropriate for a Kiwi to pass comment on the branding of XXXX in lieu of ability to spell beer 🙂

Hi Feather #3

I think that any crimes I have commited against the Queens Good English are more than nullified by those disgraceful puns – sentenced to study of T6 serial numbers – the musical – for two days

EXACTLY !!!!!!

A really disturbing fact is that I am a trained english teacher – I lasted six weeks and ran off screaming – not something I regret at all.
