Stumbled upon this earlier and immediately thought of STW for some reason.😁

Emotional Intelligence for Leadership: a Practical Guide to Learn How to Improve Your Social Skills and Master Your Emotions.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B085TRDV4M?smid=A1G3UP32AZJ14F&tag=pepperegc22-21&ascsubtag=2587378472

Anyone else got any that come to mind?😉

I assumed it would be

... And worst of all, some people never seem to understand what you are saying, no matter how clear you express yourself.

"Greatness isn't Born it's Grown."

I love that. I'm going to try to use that in an innocuous sentence tomorrow.😁

At the Co-op: "Ah, you've got the right change? Thanks."

Me: "Greatness isn't born, it's grown."

Then I'll walk enigmatically towards the door- the man of mystery that I am.

Surrounded by idiots these people may be but it doesn’t make them any better at grammar.

What's happened?

Has one of the forum regulars gone off on one again, emailing death threats to MP's and threatening to burn down the local planning department.

@sirromj That made me chuckle. That book should be officially sanctioned by Singletrack. 😂

IMG_6285I like the idea of getting this dust cover and putting it on every single book I read on the train for years, so that fellow commuters think it’s all I ever read.
