PREDICTABLE TEXT

I’ve got six 12 year old girls here all preparing for a disco tonight. My teenage boy is (possibly) going to a party, depending on whether his father manages to get through to the parents (so far he’s tried 6 times) and my 7 year old is staying at his fathers. I’m going across the road to a friend’s house to have a curry. she has just asked me to text over my curry order. My predictive text is getting scarily clever at inserting a more appropriate word where necessary. This is what I have just sent:

“Chkn Tikka Masala. Saag Aloo. Mango Chut. Plain rice and a man pls”. (would much rather have a man than a naan anyway, lets see if it works).

She then texted back:

“will a plain man do?”

I will have to let her know that a plain man will not do. I want an all-singing, all-dancing man with knobs on – well, in fact, one knob will do.
