My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

UnfortunatelyHer husband left her, got a flat, and then went back to her. Within a couple of days he turned up for work, battered and blue with scratch marks all over and the biggest bruise I have ever seen on his arm.
It's a regular occurrence, apparently. He's a decent lad as well. But she's an utter psycho and needs locking up, for sure.
