The plod go out looking for drunks at xmas. Other times of year,
detection
is left to the safety cameras. I thought that would have been
obvious.

Obvious - but completely wrong.



Check your spelling, bloody useless drunk driver

So, how long have you been trying to use English for, sonny?


That should read:

"So, for how long have you been trying to use English, sonny?"

Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.

But in both cases the sentence ends with "sonny".

HTH.

I suspect both you and Burnt have been *whoosh*ed.

"Prepositions are not words with which to end sentences."

HTH

Shame when you have to point it out rather than just use it and sit back with
