This error was spotted by my friend and colleague Melissa - thanks Mel for sending this to me.
The error was found in an email sent to Mel from Pet Health Advice - the email itself was was entitled January Pet Health Advice - Arthritis in Dogs. The sentence containing the error is as follows:
'In this issue of my regular pet health advice newsletter I've got loads of useful information adout arthritis in dogs, including how to diagnose, treat and prevent this condition. I hope this is useful, and as always, please get in touch if you have any questions.'
The error comes when the author wrote 'adout' rather than 'about'. I don't think this can be completely classed as a typo as the d and b keys aren't next to each other. In fact I found it quite difficult to make myself type adout. But I also don't think the author didn't know how to spell about, it was just a simple error made, but again, one that was not checked before being sent out.
