Problem I had was with S, the GUN bit no problemo. Is using a plural acceptable when the original was singular ?

By the By, how you feeling today ? Stomach bug all cleared up ?

Thanks, yes. I'm much better, but the 14 year old came home from school today with it. It started with the 4 year old, then to me, the to Drew. So far my wife's lucked out and missed it.

As far as the plurality, I think it's happened before, but I'll let someone else be the judge.

But if it makes you happy
