    Explain to me why "your" is not a grammatical error when the intention was to mean "you're" - in effect "you are ". It's not a spelling mistake surely ?

    He has spelt your correctly. Just used it incorrectly.

    Ergo it's a grammatical error as 'your' does not mean 'you are'.

    Clearly they need a better business model. There's a big demand globally. Perhaps they should attempt to take over whoever owns Youtube these days <laugh>

    Looking forward to trying the Doner Summer place. Looks really good.
    You’re not quite right about Macdonalds veggie burgers though.
    They’re not cooked on the same grill as meat. They’re actually cooked with the fries (which are vegan)
    The reason their veggie burgers aren’t vegan is they use eggs in the sauce, so vegans can get one but ask for no sauce.

    In 1964 an international convention held in Geneva, concluded that grammar has no structure as it is fluid and evolves over time. Dr P Tnucaru of the Polish Institute of Written Language, stated that "We need to reverse the trend to point out grammatical errors."

    Studies have also shown that calcium from plant based sources is poorer quality and harder to absorb, meaning vegans are more likely to be deficient in calcium than non-vegans. People can pick and choose studies to suit their argument, nutritional studies are notoriously biased and flawed.

    Most of the major contributors to ill health are vegan such as alcohol, tobacco, sugar, salt and refined vegetable oils / syrups, these account for the majority of obesity, strokes, heart disease, cancer, diabetes...etc. The link between animal specific fat and heart disease has long been debunked whilst the links between meat and cancer are tenuous at best and even then only pose a similar risk to certain widespread pesticides used on vegetables.

    A balanced diet high in unprocessed, natural foods is the answer, there's no reason to exclude anything for any reason other than personal preference.

    Don't get me started on the hypocrisy involved in the compassion / environmental arguments!
