    2010

    How's everyone saying it?

    Twenty ten?

    Or

    Two thousand and ten?

    I'm in the twenty ten camp myself (but then I've been saying twenty oh nine, oh eight etc.)
    All other opinions are wrong....

    I said nineteen-ninety-nine so twenty-ten makes most sense. I used to say two-thousand-nine because twenty-nine would be confusing.

    Twenty-ten for me. The "two thousand and" bit was more convenient until 2009 (somehow splitting those zeroes just felt wrong) but now it's just like 1910. Except everything's more expensive.

    I was wondering this very thing earlier whilst writing a cheque.

    I'm sayimng twenty ten, but the people I've heard say it all said two thousand and ten.

    The country here seems divided, as usual :
    "The Jaguar's going cheap"
    "Shouldn't it be purring?" :confused:

    I've been saying twenty-ten. At work we have to initial and date every piece of paper that goes in a file. I have a serious inability to write 1/10 right now as I'm used to automatically writing /0 as the year. Thank God for tippex.
