it depends if it is raining as in you can see it raining, or it has been raining, being as it has been raining
ya know the one that gets me... example: 'ive just brought a playstation' so if you were to say: 'my mate brought his playstation round' does that mean you now wn it?
Aah, at least we're not American. I mean, burglarization, what is that about then? Personally I think it's all down to the national obsession with 'bigger is better' - excessively big cars, buildings, food, and now language
Neither is wrong. They're both just inelegantly phrased statements. You could just say "As it's raining, I think I'll stay in." That's not very good sentence construction, either - you shouldn't start a sentence with a preposition! (To quote Sir Winston Churchill: "Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.") More elegantly put: "I think I'll stay in as it's raining." (no need to mention outside, as it's hardly likely to be raining inside...) I can bore for ages on how to use English properly. I had a very strict mother and one of my past jobs was proof-reading. Maybe I should mark all your posts out of ten for correct use of English? (No doubt you'll all being jumping on my errors now. I can speak properly, but I'm a cr@p typist!)
My mate from Mansfield says that,.... amount of times we've argued about that No, you can borrow a tenner.
