I've just had an e-mail from AB and was surprised to see a very common grammatical mistake:
"We've made a fair few changes in the last two years, some of which you might of missed"

"Of " is not a verb. The correct word should be "have"

Please don't do this. it spoils anotherwise excellent site.

The spelling mistakes and bad grammar of some of the replies here just proves the point that mistakes happen. Give them a break!
