Open a new message by clicking on: Write. You should now be able to select the Dictionary here: Options | Check Spelling
Keep in mind you must be in the "Message" pane
Then click on the down arrow in the "Language" field and select the appropriate dictionary.
ensure that you right click the file (spell-en-GB.xpi) and save it to your HDD.
Next:
Open TB, click on Tools | Extensions
Once the Extensions window is open, then right click and drag the spell-en-GB.xpi file from the HDD, to the Extensions window. It should then install, but won't be viewable in the Extensions window, once installed.
Now open a new message window, and check the Language field. Both the English (US), and the English (United Kingdom) Dictionaries should be listed.
