I'm planing a Barking facility

A couple of snippets of raw copy for you today, chosen for the interesting images they bring to mind.

First, a simple typo:

The proposed regional distribution centre is currently at the planing stage, but Morrisons is confident that the site, just off the M5, will be operational by mid-2011.


Is the distribution centre made of wood?

And then there's this:

Since January, the company has opened a 273,000ft2 Barking facility, invested in electronic proof-of-delivery technology and won several significant contracts.


A doggone Barking facility! I think that "facility in Barking, London" would be clearer...

Perhaps they'll open an Elephant and Castle facility soon, or a Bat and Ball centre.
