One of the interventions has changed parents' "hobbits"!

(I am trying to take joy in serendipitous typos, rather than make fun of my colleagues, who are far more gifted linguists than I am.)

Hobbits are probably seasonal? Or something. Possibly something. I am not at home to coherence this morning, it seems.

I find typos really funny lately! I don't know why, I think because I'm writing a lot at the moment, I find letters not doing what they're supposed to really hilarious. Other rib-splitting things: misreading signs so you THINK there's a typo. What is wrong with me?

Ahahaha! I have also been taking pleasure in typos in reports, particularly those from senior managers that I then have to rewrite (although their boss has told me to make them do it - hah!). The best one recently was "there is a risk that reduced engagement will affect staff morals" - I laughed loudly and had to share the joy with colleagues.
