    Is it possible for the lounge to manage a whole day using properly spelt and grammatically correct English?
    The freedom of creative expression and even creating new forms of language is highly recommended. I bow down to these innovations.

    No, it's not possible cos those of us who are crap at spelling and grammar would be checking everything in word or some such prog and would take ages to post by which time the post we make would be redundant.

    Thank you for the nice idea tho and good luck with it for those who take part

    Spellcheck for IE and Spellbound for Firefox can do it and fast.

    Face it: we're just lazy, or foreign or even both.

    Damn, I even spell checked and was certain that there would be a mistake.
    As to your question, yes it is a real word, however it is not correct in this context.

    Spelt is described as; Hardy wheat grown mostly in Europe for livestock feed.
