I think that comes from hearing it with poor diction, rather than seeing it written down. Others are Marks & Spencers (there is no s at the end) Home and Bargain (there is no &)
Here's proper English. All right me old china, do you fancy a ruby? I'm just going up the apples for a jimmy and to get a pony from my wallet. I was talking to a bloke the other day, and I would swear he was stoke on trent. He gave me a pain in my gregory.
Indeed... it is a concatenation of Nob-Le-Lox... "Le" is French for "the"... "lox" is a fancy-schmancy way of saying "salmon fillet". His name therefore is telling you to screw your salmon dinner... not Noble Ox you dimwit. Can't belireve you didn't catch that.
bit harsh having a go at others for spelling errors. is there some irony in the post of spelling starting as stating, and having a go at others for grammar? my other half is dyslexic and gets enough of this crap on faceache, nobody knows each others circumstances, so shouldn't really be doing this type of thing in my opinion.
Pisses me off too. Any school child will know that grammatically the above is total sh1t. It must be 'He must HAVE known that....' The number of posters writing that sh1t is unbelievable.
Two things, they are not spelling mistakes, they are grammatical errors. Second, grow a sense of humour, this is not a witch hunt.
Just to clear it up, Noblelox is , or probably was the name of a "gelding" racehorse some years back.... Gelding??? Get it?
grow a sense of humour for having a go at others for mistakes, then making them yourself? ok, silly me
