My overused words is one begins with S and ends with T, and the other begins with b and ends with R. I cant help it, it just pops out when things go wrong. Regards Yvonne

Sure...........I See. No one has yet admitted to being a 'At the end of the day' or 'Basically' user! According to David Beckham everything is 'Amazing'

Not that i'm aware of, we use words subconsiously. What does annoy me is to hear 'You Know' punctating every other word. Val
