'Fed up of' versus 'Fed up with' #1 (permalink) Fri Sep 29, 2006 15:59 pm   'Fed up of' versus 'Fed up with'

I would like to know if there is any difference between:

1- I am fed up of writing this book which...
2- I am fed up with writing this book which...
3- I am fed up about writing this book which...

The difference is that 'fed up of' and 'fed up about' are not conventional expressions.
