Leak and potato soup:

a strange and appealing & presumably inadvertent typo in a strange and appealing little piece by Iain Sinclair, at the Guardian Review, on a long-distance swimming stunt.

  1. I just came across an appealing typo of my own, situated in an appealing YA novel called "Twilight": "dust moats."

  2. My critique partner found an interesting typo in my first manuscript:
    "He tipped the leftover eggs into the dogs' bowels."

  3. Good old Grauniad, still waving its typographically challenged flag even in this spell check age (or in this particular case, because of this spell check age).

    Just off to have some read lentil and been soup for my tee.
