Hee hee, Kit -- this reminds me: we're still waiting for the "other shoe to drop" from the Christmas present EArl gave my brother one year! It was a frozen deer-head he found on the side of the road on his way to work one morning. Steve took it home with him, and we keep wondering when it's going to resurface! (this is maybe 15 years now...)

Honestly - I go on holiday for 5 days and all you've been doing is moaning and complaining...
Misused apostrophes are my pet hate. I recently saw an advert on a block of retirement flats (over-priced, serviced appartments) which read:
"We'll take care of your loved one's". .....Presumably the words 'hard-earned cash' had been missed off the strap line.

So does my DH. He is a Professor of Chemistry and it drives him crazy when it is pronounced incorrectly. Originally Posted by Bruno28
