This sale by my spell checker will reduce their surplus stock
Which includes a pile of letters that I’ve been keen to block;

Nothing worse than to have a word changed without knowing it's spelling downgraded and even worse when no matter if spelling it correctly it insists it is wrong. Very confusing the difference in United States spelling and British is it gray or grey? I would prefer black and white.
Never noticed the gray/grey thing. In this instance only, so long as both are understood - and they have to be because while (even I) would prefer black and white, the reality is......
