@fhxshrs I think that a sentence that ends with "... on that" is not grammatically correct. If we say "on that" we need to add a noun after it. For example,

If I agreed to that and signed on that dotted line, it meant that the Australian Opera would be able to get me out on an assisted passage.” (retrieved from The Guardian)

..., the Prime Minister obviously hopes to replicate the atmosphere that produced the agreement signed on that long Good Friday last year, ... (retrieved from The Guardian)

..., she wrote: "I signed on that document. This is a fact that I can't change, even if I want to." (retrieved from BBC).

"I think I had one day down in Bournemouth," he explained. "I was supposed to come down and look at the training ground and stadium. I signed on that day and I wasn't allowed home. (retrieved from BBC)

For this reason, I've used "... on it" instead: 4b8c2df .

I've opened a discussion #1131 on "me and her" being grammatically correct.
