What a good idea! The Pig’sPrize for Punctilious Prose, awarded weekly on a week by week basis to those who stray from the straight and narrow of conventional English phraseology. Those individuals both in and out of blogdom who are contributing towards the decline in the English language, innit?

The very first award is grunted to the Blue Witch, but only because it was her idea: she felt a sentence that she wrote in a comment on one of my posts yesterday had got out of hand.
