This excellent site from Bristol University might help anyone unsure about grammar or punctuation - run on sentences, dangling participles, the comma splice etc.

Simple explanaions and quick, simple, tick-the-box exercises to test.

If you don't need to know how to suck eggs, great. If you're not sure on some things - it's a good site:

Looks good.

I think I'm okay for the most part, but I'm aware there are blanks there need filling. This'll be darned useful when my head's functioning. Bookmarked for later.

Thanks for this.

We oxymorons don't understand long words like pleonasm

I have a real problem with commas, so thanks for this - really useful.

Pleonasm sounds rude.
