Don't you just hate it when....

That is correct tho, as you check by splitting it-so join mark, and join me-not join I

Mmm OK, things change, but that wasn't acceptable when I was at school

Oooh, don't get me started on grammar!
But to clarify Debridger's issue:

"Join Mark and me" is correct, and always would have been.

"Me and Mark" at the beginning of a sentence, as the subject, is totally wrong. But if it's the object, or comes somewhere else in the sentence, "Mark and me" is more likely to be correct.

Welsh Tigger's got it right. Split it up.
If you take "Mark and" out of it - what would you say?

You would say "I went to the....." and therefore it's "Mark and I" in that case.

But you'd say "Join me", and therefore it's "Mark and me".

Seemples!

JoT, WT
Thanks, maybe I just had 'one of those teachers' mind you, she was old when I was in senior school 30 years ago

Anyhow, for the record, I appreciate the explanation

You get the munchies big-style the night before weigh-in when you've been sooo good for weeks and only got 1kg to lose to reach target

Ooooooo I hate that so much Leapfrog and usually happens to me when I've got no fruit or veg in (going shopping the next day) and OH has got a load of junk in that he's stuffing his face with x

... when you break your tooth.
So you have to go to the dentist.
And you're a big brave girl.
But you don't even get a sticker.
And all you can eat is soup.
Although whisky is good for anaesthetising tooth pain!

(I've had enough of being a big brave girl now!)

..you attempt to Christmassy the house against your will, are semi proud of your 'efforts', then come down in the morning to carnage as the cat has remembered how fun Christmas was last year, and is teaching the little ones the best way to destroy mummy's efforts.

I stripped the tree of everything else in a childish strop

You're lying in bed and hear the cat flap, followed by crunching on cat biscuits. Only your two cats are on the bed with you! Cat Hotel, that's us, free feline all-inclusive holidays!

My mum couldn't understand why the black cat ate so much and sometimes looked fatter!!! She's Irish... The type the jokes are made for!

When Artem from Strictly is so in love with you he wants to hold your hand all the time, you spend hours with him walking and talking and having a lovely time.

But then you get woken at 5.30am and you're at work!!!!
