Andy,
Looking at just the PC for simplicity.

Under the font tab I have Language (UK) but the only "ABC" was on
"English (USA)!
Changed language to English (USA) and it works!
So the question is why, I seem to have the Hunspell dictionary all
ticked for English (UK)?
I assume I could delete it and either install it again or install
another one.
I don't remember having to install dictionaries manually before but then
I may have always left it at English (USA), know wunder I waz aving
problums wiv mi spelin!!

Peter,
OK, so you've installed only the USA version of LO, and not the UK
version. I use Mint, so I don't know what packages you will need, but
the ones I have for the UK version include myspell and the various
dictionaries for the languages I need, but I also have hunspell and
aspell for other language uses. The LO package to install for UK is
libreoffice-l10n-en-gb
which is the localisation for GB/UK and will force the UK dictionary, I
believe. Your naming may be different.
If you have only the US version, then the menus and dialogs will also be
US versions only. The localisation will define the language of the user
interface, not necessarily the language of the documents.
If all else fails, then you could always install the OpenOffice
dictionary from an .oxt file for each account.

What was in the fc22 repository!
I am not sure (yet) exactly what fedora does to LO.
In the "About LibreOffice it has:
Version: 4.4.4.3
Build ID: 4.4.4.3-6.fc22
Locale: en_GB.UTF-8
So that looks like GB to me!
and not the UK

I have googled and found myspell mentioned in Ubunto info but have
already tried to install it and its not in fedora, or should I be trying
from somewhere else!?
but I also have hunspell and

I am having trouble finding another en-gb one atm, but at least its
working USA!

There was a bug years ago and it seems it keeps popping up now and then,
I am not sure if I ever had GB dictionaries of its just happened after
an update.
Will have another go over the weekend
