'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Set/sit. Bought/brought FFS. Bloody Americans.

Yeah that was one of mine chaps. Having a bit of a spring clean out. Plan is to focus on some of my other projects and to put some funds back into the house project that seems to be swallowing a stupid amount of money...
