Why is it that everyone nowadays seems to be "heading" somewhere? Why do we so rarely hear "travelling", "journeying" or simply "moving"?
And why is it that most TV and radio weather forecasters seem unable to utter the word "towards" without prefacing it with "as we head"?
The other oft-heard nonsense is to be told, on traffic reports, that if we head in a particular direction there is an accident or hold up - implying that if we don't go that way the event will not occur.
