Greengrocer spelling
12 June 2021 05:52 pmI'm amused by the greengrocers' signs advertising the availability of "Brockley" (broccoli) and "Obo's"[sic] (aubergines).
I'm not sure if the terminology is for the benefit of the vendors' comprehension or the intended customers... ;-)
(Apparently my subconscious considers reading in French to be classified as 'work' rather than procrastination, as I've managed to get through a surprising amount of "La machine à assassiner" while attempting to do a beta-read/review for someone who flattered me into an exchange by seeking me out from the fanfiction.net critique forums...)
