Tyres and Tires....

Post by Stereo »

I found out last night to my amuzeamasement that New Zealand, England, The USA and Australia have two different ways of writing the word Tire/Tyre...

NZ and the USA both write it = Tire
AUS and England both write it = Tyre

So... for those of you who thought my spelling was crap.....

(I will write it Tyre from now on.... but it just looks wrong)
The world is round. It has no point.
