Fortunately she saw the funny side of it, or I could have been in big trouble .

My mind must have been on other things as I was typing the e-mail. Never a good idea.
I did something similar at work once. I typed up the entire quote, the sales proposal, and the after-the-buy service offer. And then I replaced the "g" in "Best Regards" at the end of my email, with a "t".

Thankfully, I'd been working with that customer for long enough he took it as a joke and laughed it off...
