Biscuit news

[davidn]

I don't usually just share out bits from television programmes from my Bittorrent imports I've happened to watch without having extensive commentary of my own, but I've got to admit I was... intrigued, might be the word, by this list of biscuit injuries on this week's Have I Got News For You.

The only thing more surprising than the existence of that 3% statistic is that 3% of these people admitted to having managed to do that to a sufficient extent to call it an injury...

writing it as "per cent" rather than percent seems archaic to me. But perhaps that's just me living here in the world of to-morrow.

I never even noticed that when I watched it - proving, I suppose, that the two can exist side by side in my head - but I would definitely never write it as "per cent" as I thought that stopped happening in the 1970s.
