Not if you are saying top draw steve.
Which people seem to think it is.
Ye it is draw in the sense Nath posted but that is, of course, common sense.

There are loads of things.
Simple typos aren't a problem though and I more than occasionally get my spelling wrong.
I don't even know what to call the brought instead of bought and draw/drawer.

Bad spelling doesn't worry me much, maybe it's the typing that's of a bad standard, but that short text language like " i wona go 2 wrk wiv u bbz" is gheyness.
