They're links to DailyMotion full 2013 SF (!!!) and Vimeo 2012 F Highlights /), respectively. Checked via iPhone.

That said, who knows whether they'll give you a virus on the way there. Could potentially be routed through any website...

Sorry for being a spelling/grammar n@zi - but it's 'whet'.

I know, I need to get out more.

It was meant for the OP, but I have to thank you for that as well. I didn't know. .

Don't worry mate, you'll have a good reason, Wimbledon is around the corner.

"Wet [sic] your whistle," i.e., with a liquid, is responsible for this.

You are right about the source of the confusion, but at the risk of going uber-pedant on you, but what is the sic for? 'Wet your whistle' is correct after all.

You're most welcome Sid. Every day is a school day.

It's not something that appears much these days - unlike moot/mute, have/of, and loose/lose which I see all the time - much to my chagrin!

Don't get me started on the recent phenomenon of using 'absolute' as an adverb - that would be a hanging offence in Batz's Britain.

No worries; I needed an uber-pedant in this case. The reason is that I was under a similar misapprehension as the OP in thinking that the expression was "to whet one's whistle," in the sense of encouraging or stimulating it.

You are kind. I was about to say something sarcastic about "wetting one's appetite". I think I am just mean :|

And risk damaging that pale, Scottish complexion?

I see this all the time. I also see things being made into all one word. The most common one being abit or alot.
