Well chaps I finally got fed up with all the spellings. First thing I have to do is put my hand up and say "Yes yer Honour I got it wrong." The 1998 edition of the Concise Oxford Dictionary gives the spelling as "ricochet". It goes on to give the verb forms as EITHER "ricocheting, ricocheted" OR ricochetting, ricochetted".

 

Naff all to do with hunting but I like to get my terminology correct. One C two Ts.

One C two Ts.

 

You realize you're leaving the door ever so slightly ajar there Ric

I never mentioned "U"s or "N"s

That's OK, the devil on my shoulder filled in the gaps

If we're insisting on getting things correct shouldn't it be two C's?

 

Just asking like...

It'd also be Rick O'Shea if you were to intentionally misspell it correctly

[RicW 67]

Treacle - no, that's the mistake I've made in the past. One "C", and you can use one or two "T"s.

Blimey, and there's me thinking all this time that 1+1=2. Well you live and learn.
