You culd come to the Wirral and visit here too! We have already done the invitation bits. They are on the train, having no car, and thus are restricted as to the places they can visit. They are coming up to visit family for the first time in two yeras. Nice though they might find both you and I they just cannot visit on this visit. Gorrit? . .find you and me. . At my school one was caned for saying You and me. OK .... Somethings one never forgets. No doubt your English Teachers had other ideas. Yes I know it is old fashioned usage but it was what I was raised to use and use it I shall.I am sure Prof. Nick will confirm that it depends on the subject-object usage."It doesn't matter to you and me" is correct, as is: "You and I know there are no trains in the bakery"Test it by omitting the "You and. ." then see if it sounds right."It doesn't matter to I" is obviously not correct, as is: "Me know there are no trains in the bakery" (unless you are called Ebrell)My English Masters had very firm ideas on the subject. . I shall now stop preaching.
