I used to be good, but mixing with Americans in forums like this, seems to be confusing my mind, I was recommended to use a spelling and grammar tool, which is OK, but sometimes I have to overrule its suggestions, if it objects to UK spelling, I just click the top right of the suggestion...

Sainsbury's, one of our "Big 4" supermarkets, has set up a company to patrol the "Disabled Parking Bays", in Supermarket car parks, I have no idea how they work, but I got a letter for parking without displaying a "Blue Badge", I had forgotten to put it in the window, but this was in a Tesco...
