Must be common "slang" (unless the author of the blog lives near you):
Following my rant about the illiterate racist (see previous blog), I had a more gentle laugh at some comical mis-spellings I saw recently.
A local farm shop is currently selling “rhubub” while a greasy-spoon café down the road has “Shepards Pie” among its gourmet dishes. Meanwhile, a little old lady round the corner earns some pocket money selling plants on a stall outside her house, including those popular herbs “corinder” and “basel”.
