Keep the apostrophe flying. </p> <p>Everything's a battle with Miss Scroat at the moment.

I'm almost afraid to mention it, but one of the things that the young master's teacher commented on yesterday was how well he was doing in English, and that she was very pleased with his grasp of apostrophes. I must admit to giving myself a pat on the back for that. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=621#post-1873 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:01:29 +0000 Scroat 1873@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>My daughter's started doing that!

Is their no other grammatical construct that we can discuss instead? I'd of thought we could come up with something. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=621#post-1857 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 09:31:44 +0000 The All New Jeni B 1857@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Will you lot please pick up all those toys you chucked out of the pram now?<br /> Some of us are trying to keep this new site tidy. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=621#post-1828 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 23:45:27 +0000 rikkor 1828@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Malgor?

If you'd bother to check, you'd find that the apostrophe fairy has waved his magic wand across the entire site. Instances of misplaced or missing apostrophes no longer sully these pages.
