George Bernard Shaw’s observation that the US and the UK are “two nations divided by a common language’ became reality when I logged onto my Facebook account this morning (see below)

According to my calculations, 51.5001 of Brits would prefer to spell words such as favor or color without the letter ‘U’ as this makes spelling much easier. This figure decreased by -0.129057 compared to the previous year.

Head over there for confirmation of these figures but bear in mind that this website might help you with your quest for the perfect English…

Good luck!
