'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

Yeah the glorious sound, the smell. God I miss walking the flight line. I think the only thing I ever really wanted to do was fix A/C  drink good beer and get laid, all the rest has been interesting, butttt.

I didn't realise there were so many flying Spitfires left? Good stuff! ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
