Oh, good idea for a thread! A few days ago, I posted a response to a Paris thread, but I accidentally said that the restaurant was in the SEVENTH arrondisement, when I really meant the SIXTH!! Please note that for future reference when reading my old thread. <BR> <BR>Anyone else make any mistakes in recent threads? We can all post them here.

Two months ago I posted that I wanted info on Loondon. I meant to say London.

In Aug 1999, I mis-spelled Newshanstein. I still don't know how to spell it. Anyway, Richard with the IBM address lives to point out typos. I wouldn't take away his only joy in life.

You meant "Neuschwanstein"? Noy-shwahn-stine.

Mistake Maker, for info on Loondon see Elvira's posts. <BR> <BR>"Me", I knew you were wrong when you said it, but "o" is wrong too, the restaurant is actually in the 14th. There are no restaurants in the 6th. <BR> <BR>And it is New-swine-stein. The place where you buy those plastic steins with the pictures of pigs on them. <BR> <BR>I made a mistake in a post I did in 1999 also (must have been a bad year). I meant Italy when I said China. Thanks for all the helpful suggestions folks, but I couldn't find any of those temples or the "great wall" when I got to Tuscany.

A couple of years ago I screwed up here royally by directing a traveler to Monet's home in Givenchy rather than Giverney. A poster named Diane brought the error to my attention. That prompted me to respond as follows: <BR>Since many of you AAR not CLERVAUXant, I'd BEST explain Diane's posting. SOMME TIME ago, I ERD by calling Giverney "Givenchy" INN resPONSe to a Fodor's POSTA. Hee, HEE, what a MUSTEK, readers must have thought, and I don't blame THEM. NOTA BRAINE in his head. As dumb as a THUM. AHA, they thought: Fowler, a GOLDEN AGER, IZE a SCHEER LEATHERHEAD. They SEE he's a real SCILLY LOUNY with no SENS despite the word TECH in his address. He should give up his MARTIGNYs and CHAMPAGNE and switch to AQUA LONGA and BOSCO. <BR> <BR>Enough! Does anyone know where Hee, Mustek, Them, Aha, Tech and Louny are?

I am still cringing with embarrassment after I advised one poster that there was not a rail station at Villefranche and the only way to get into Nice was by bus. Someone else wrote straight after me to say there is indeed a rail station. I felt such a fool and still do!

Dear Me, o, xxxx, Wes, et al. Thank you for your frank admissions of less than perfection--it reaffirms my faith in Fodorites and keeps me from gnashing my teeth.

I once wrote Loodon when I meant Londoon.

Best thing I saw here: <BR> <BR>"Bateaux Moches" instead of "Bateaux Mouches"!
