My excuse is that I was tyred.
I see what you did there. I hate it, but appreciate it.
Nice try; but as we see in Canada, the half-wits have also borrowed 'thru' from America too. But it doesn't stop there; I blame your comma splice indirectly on bad American schooling, for instance.
I've only seen "thru" in Canada for drive through signage, I assume since it's fewer letters it's cheaper to make bigger/more visible.
And kids who don't know any better, of course. I correct them every time they say "Zee* instead of "Zed", too
