Is there a way to correct a misspelt LJ cut?

Yes, there is a way to correct it. Go in to edit your post, then switch it over to html instead of 'rich text'. If you look at the code, you'll see your lj cut will look like this (I'm adding extra spaces)

[lj - cut text = "This is where the misspelling is, just go in and fix it" ] <--- I had to change these because it didn't work

I eat my pizza fast too!! ^___^

Thanks Su, I'm still learning how all these things work on LJ. I never really look at the HTML version it looks way too scary.

your stomach is made up of metal? :)


car boot sales? is that like a flea market?

[fractured-sun.livejournal.com]

Car boot sales- people pay £5 or £10 for a space and take their old unwanted stuff and sell it out of the back of their cars. They usually take place in school or community centre car parks, or a field somewhere.

Metal stomach- Years of terrible cooking has left me able to eat just about anything.
