Ok so we've now got more than 25 folk participating in this little game of avoiding the b-word for the next few weeks, I thought it might be useful if we share our tips for playing.
As a starter, here's my top 3:
1.take a deep breath whenever you feel the need to b****: count to 5 and only then speak/write
2. substitute another bword - ideally something silly like BNARD (silly encourages you to avoid)
or, of course you could try...
3. Saying more precisely what you mean...
What are your thoughts?
