I was once fooled into thinking I was less for how I said “H” but not after reading your article. Thanks!

So I’ve been converted and didn’t even realise when it happened. Count me happy to be on the ‘haitch’ side of the divide. Loved the article, Robert. Thanks for the morning giggle.

It is a bit crazy, isn’t it, when we put people to this test before feeling the gorgeous person who might be saying it, and what they are actually communicating?
