Perish those thoughts !!!...

Hopefully with it being grammatically incorrect.

It will not come to pass..

Isn't "being" a gerund requiring a possessive? I think the correct grammar may be "Hopefully with its being grammatically incorrect." What now for the forecast - will it come to pass?

Surely a stressed h as in a NZ standard "hailstorm" takes "a". Whereas in Victorian British English, speakers pronounced "hotel" as "otel" for which they would require a written "an hotel".

" an hotel" Still is.

One would hope not ..

Rules of English change over time (and place).
"Today, though, these three words are generally pronounced with a spoken ‘h’ at the beginning and so it’s now more logical to refer to ‘a hotel’, ‘a historic event’, or ‘a horrific accident’."

Americans write "an herb" to reflect standard American usage. Whereas Kiwis would write "a herb" to reflect standard NZ usage.

Good news http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/n...ectid=11620743

Almost as good as the company coming out themselves, and lifting guidance wasn't it mate. The future looks Rosy

Historic PE is only 11.6 at $3.23 and I'm pretty sure I might have read the word growth one or two times in the annual report.

Throw the wild card of the Chinese into the mix and where's the price a year from now, two years ?

THL had better keep count of their gloworm numbers; they are an ultimate delicacy with baked apples ,replacing the dates.

Look at the date they made it last year. It will only be a day or two different.
