A bit of fun …

I was having a joke with some FB friends about the cartoon from the Apoststrophe Preservation Society website which had found its way onto Threads. (Why did predictive text want to put "it's" in there? So much for AI!)Thought it might be of interest (or should be of interest? 🙂) to some on this forum ...https://www.apostrophe.org.uk/apostrophe-use

I enjoyed this one:A journalist noticed a butcher’s shop in Lanarkshire selling “ pies” and asked a worker in the shop if there should be an apostrophe in ´pies’. The worker said he had no idea what the butcher put in his fecking pies.
