Times change.

I saw this sign today and immediately took a photo as the spelling error was quite obvious, a lovely lass working there was curious about it but had to check it against the spelling on a calendar in the stand before realising the whoopsie. I couldn't help but think of how our standards have changed over the years, in my days at school I failed English, with my spelling being abysmal, the word beautiful escaped my limited ability until about a decade post-school. I don't think the term fail is even used these days, and even in my time I had it very easy compared to my Grandparents' generation, they indeed had the training to go forth into the world.
