The RNLI is principally funded by legacies (65%) and donations (28%), with the remainder from merchandising and investment. Most of the members of its lifeboat crews are unpaid volunteers.
I'm doubting this is what Messers Marks and Spencer envisioned for the future of their business.
I'm calling out the UK for using "m" instead of "mi" as an abbreviation for "miles".
Even in as metric-phobic a nation as the US, we recognize that "m" means "meters".
"100 m to York? Shouldn't I see it if we're that close?" <- possible quotation from me.
