The claim to "Give it more than 100%" is so annoying, you can only give it 100% ! If you have more to give then you didn't give 100%!

H pronounced haitch instead of aitch.

If you look in the dictionary, you will find that whilst it is spelt AITCH, it is pronounced with a slight expulsion of breath, resulting in being spoken as Haitch

I took a wrong turning coming out of Portsmouth one time... I didn't make the mistake of stopping.

I think that's how most people end up there.
