Which brings me to the title of the post. Am I the only person that gets annoyed when I hear, or see in print, people using "of" instead of "have"?To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional
Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.

"try to" and "try and"
I'm going to try to win the race. (correct)
I'm going to try and win the race. (incorrect - "and" makes the "try" successful by default so both words are superfluous)
-----
"Me and my mates..."
"My mates and I..."
I've asked around in teaching and literary circles on this one and haven't had a clear answer. I was taught and prefer the latter, but it seems the former is acceptable and correct now.Every time you make a typo, the errorists win.
