Apostrophe fight
« on: March 13, 2014, 11:25:39 AM »
Walked past a cafe earlier. Chalk board outside was advertising omelette's, salad boxe's and potatoe's  cussing:

Naturally I licked my finger and corrected it angel1

Some irate wumman shot out and demanded to know what I was doing.

I explained angel1

She fetched some chalk, reinstated the errors and pushed me rather hard in the chest  eeek:

Joking apart, I always do a preview of any picture/link before posting just to make sure it's Ok ~ seems only courteous to do so.
