Usually footballers wifes or orange women or both with plenty of time on their hands.Interior designers, what a pathetic group of people
Carefull now, dont get into irish politics on here..............Usually footballers wifes or orange women or both with plenty of time on their hands.
Ah, the greengrocer’s apostrophe.Sane here, mate, but I fear you are fighting a losing battle - the false apostrophists will take no notice of your admirable homily and continue to mangle our language and its usages.
Even explaining about possesseion is lost on many - it is fraught with traps for the unwary. Someone on another thread recently talked about the "player's lounge" (sic) when alluding to the lounge used by all the players - I almost replied and asked him which individual player had a lounge of his own.
Still, perhaps not as bad as the shop I saw with a display of apples called "Golden Deliciou's". I felt like going in and buying one golden deliciou. But I feared the irony would be lost on whoever served me.
Pregnant women should sport a baby on board sticker.The original idea, from the good old U. S of A was so that if you're car was mangled in an accident the services would know you had baby on board
But its sadly become a form of showing off, like they are the only parents in the world
I’d imagine anyone prepared to go down that route would want it to read ‘small person on board’.Pregnant women should sport a baby on board sticker.
You sound like a man after my own heart Swifty. Christ knows, it's not difficult!Sane here, mate, but I fear you are fighting a losing battle - the false apostrophists will take no notice of your admirable homily and continue to mangle our language and its usages.

I'm not sure that is definitely incorrect. If they were to have a shop called "Marks & Spencer's", suggesting they are selling Marks and Spencer goods, then it would be correct as for trade names it is normal to use an apostrophe denoting ownership without specifying the items owned e.g. McDonald's.. So by replacing the name of the business with a cheeky "You Know Who" makes this company name possible albeit a shit name in the first place. I'd never heard of them but I see they're a chain of ten shops around the north and Scotland.There's a shop in Bury purporting to sell M&S seconds without explicitly saying it. Its signage proclaims "You Know Who's". Annoys me every time I see it.

I suppose if I wanted to keep you anonymous but still reference your post above, if I said "You Know Whose post" it doesn't look right because I've lost the intention of hiding your name by using the common "You Know Who" moniker and also that the post is yours, but I could write "You Know Who whose post ...".Ha ha. You've got my mind boggling now. I'm sure the possessive of who is whose whereas the possessive of Spencer is Spencer's as you say. Where are the grammar police when you need them ? Autocorrect to"there" instead of "their" and the buggers can't wait..
And have their hazard lights on so they think they legitimise their fuckwittery.Arseholes that park waiting for their missus to do the shopping in the pick up/drop off zones at the supermarket
And keep the engine running to waste fuel and cause additional pollution.And have their hazard lights on so they think they legitimise their fuckwittery.
Yeah I can sort of understand it in the close season but it's all a bit zzzzz & who can think of the most obscure thing to put in the thread title.Bluemoon threads about songs.....Songs with animals in them,
songs with the word blue in them,
That mention feet,
Boys names,
Girls names,
dogs names,
best outro to a song, best guitar, drummer, fuck me its boring.
Saw one yesterday which read "Autistic Child Onboard". What's the purpose behind that?I was driving behind one of these tossers the other week and ironically they were driving like a tw*t. Didn't bother indicating, never gave way to oncoming traffic going down a sharp incline with obstruction on our side of the road.
Shove your sticker up your arse, it is your driving that is the danger to your offspring.
Twats that wait until all their stuff has gone past the till before they start packing it....then root around their colossal hand bag to find their card. Meanwhile my Chicago stuffed crust has defrosted. Twats !!!!!Arseholes that park waiting for their missus to do the shopping in the pick up/drop off zones at the supermarket
It's a status symbol nowadays.Saw one yesterday which read "Autistic Child Onboard". What's the purpose behind that?
Come on mate, refer to them by their proper name, their ‘I can park anywhere lights’, if you don’t mind ;-).And have their hazard lights on so they think they legitimise their fuckwittery.
