Someone sent me the above a while ago and I agree totally - there were others that I added to the list but I can't remember off hand what they were - they'll come back to me I'm sure:cool:

I've had all kinds of problems with the PC and the lap tops for the last week or so - don't recognise the router, can't find a signal - I assumed in the end that it was caused by the weather Turning the modem off and on again helped some of the time - in fact OH has just come through with his laptop to say it's happened again:rolleyes:

It was very cute, though a shame it stopped as mother cat got up
Evening all
Afternoon all. Brake pads fixed. The man who teaches mum how to use dad's ipad (he doesn't get a look in) :rolleyes: and her iphone (which she loves now) did them for me, and it only cost £70 Would have cost loads more at BMW. I watched him do it- not such a techy job when you see how it's done (still wouldn't attempt it myself) It was good I haven't been driving this last week, as on the side without the sensor it was down to bare metal :eek: luckily only just so, had I been driving I'd have needed new discs as well
I always get confused with apostrophe's (<<is that one right) but i think i know about it is
No that one isn’t needed.
They are used to represent a missing letter as above, or to denote a possessive – Fred’s shoes, for instance.
People stick them in after dates – the 80’s is incorrect, but if you were referring to 80s’ music the apostrophe is OK, it wouldn’t be if you said music of the 80s. Note the apostrophe is after the s because 80s is plural.
Simple, a ’ represent a missing letter or the words of the or belonging to.
There’s loads of misuse of . for omitted letters. Ltd. is incorrect, Co. isn’t.

Here's a wee song that may help you..........
Apostrophe (Oh Christmas Tree)
by Eileen Thorpe
Apostrophe, apostrophe
You drive me oh so batty.
Apostrophe, apostrophe
Your overuse is a travesty.
Some people just can’t get enough
They must think you’re hot stuff
Apostrophe, apostrophe
Some rules to avoid catastrophe.
It’s hers and theirs and yours and its
when you want to possess a bit
And when you need to pluralize,
You don’t need to apostrophize.
And what of words that end in esess?
An apostrophe will only make a mess’s.
I wonder why you so confuse
I’m sure you’re tired of this abuse.
Apostrophe, apostrophe
You drive me oh so batty.
He is gobbling down the adult food with great enjoyment. The reason teacups get so cold is related to the high surface area to volume ratio - they have the potential to release core heat from a small body volume over a comparitively large surface area. I'm keeping a watch on his weight - he is now a massive 1Kg.
He sure has. I am deffo in love.
KOOOOOL- I love that bit of Beethoven!
I would let him eat as much as he wants. The fatter he is the warmer he will be. Probably.
Puppies managed fine before puppy food was invented.
Yoga was good, hard but good! OH has a new found appreciation for 'standing on one leg and sh!t like that'
Thai teacher cut lesson short 'cos himself was getting on her nerves, ok, she didn't say that exactly but effectively that's what he was doing! 'Working from home' my skinny @ss
Ach well, it's Friday afternoon, kids will be home soon and neighbour has selflessly volunteered to pour drinks down our throats later. Cheers you lot!

Why cant we say "it's" as in "it's paw was bleeding"?
We went out and bought a load of hideous stuff.
I got hideous magenta socks. (because i cant have rough seams so never mind the colour)
Then we got a hideous washed out magenta drainy scoopy utensil because it looks as if it might not melt if its left in the chip pan.
Then CL got some hideous reading glasses because apparently you cant get number four strength anywhere and who cares what they look like as long as he can see.
Then we got the most awful horrid grey plastic bin because thats all we could find that didnt cost a fortune.
Then we had the worst meal EVER. I dont even know where we were because CL was doing one of his creative routes again. It was a "hungry horse" chain pub. Absolutely vile.
Looks like i am the only one who hadn't seen the flashmob thing so i am glad it was posted.
I would let him eat as much as he wants. The fatter he is the warmer he will be. Probably.
Puppies managed fine before puppy food was invented.
What exactly did your husband do to annoy her?
I dont bother much either because I try to write as I speak to friends.

Don't confuse the contraction it's (meaning, "it is") with the possessive pronoun its:

I love your shopping trips - either loads of bargains or loads of vileness! I have some rather hidous socks too, I wear them under boots so who cares. I have reading glasses from Costco, one pair is nice and I wouldn't mind who saw them, the other 5 aren't wonderful but enable me to read small print.

It’s paw was bleeding is incorrect, its paw was bleeding is right. That one is very confusing but it’s is only used instead of it is, although its paw is a possessive, but it is a personal possessive. The only personal possessive with an apostrophe is one’s.
I have many years experience editing books and magazines, that’s why I had to learn this stuff.

Morning Janet
Very well thanks Janet, hope same goes for you but seeing as you are still using the juicer I expect you are fighting fit
Afternoon guys:)
Someone sent me the above a while ago and I agree totally - there were others that I added to the list but I can't remember off hand what they were - they'll come back to me I'm sure:cool:
Hi Janet - juicers are great, I agree!
I'm sure M&S always used to close on GF and ES - aren't they owned by a Jewish family who observed EAster as a religious holiday? In fact I shopped yesterday assuming that they'd be closed today
Oh so cute, little poppet! Reminds me of OH first thing in the morning, he twitches and jumps - but not remotely cute:cool:
im fine thanks i am indeed:D
good to hear you are well
i love it, i put allsorts in it (not liquorice Hicky )
i shopped to yesterday thinking they were closed
im having probs wth my lappy it doesnt recognise the router and says im not connected but my old lappy is....i need to investigate...google is my friend :cool: (well i hope it is haha)
Yes very

aw cuuuuute I fear people have totally given up trying to contain the wandering apostrophe...:( It's a clever cat that conduct with its' tail while asleep. Er, have I got that second apostrophe correct? We need Litts at a time like this....
No you haven’t. The only time its has an apostrophe is when it is a shortening of it is.
your just showing off:p:D
if im on a forum i dont worry much about apostrophes its enough to get me spelling right:D...although if i am giving in a piece of work it is spot on
hows Rupert doing?
edit ive fixed my lappy to
I always get confused with apostrophe's (<<is that one right) but i think i know about it is
It was very cute, though a shame it stopped as mother cat got up

It is very confusing, because i always think that if we can have "Alisha's attic" then "it's attic" is logical.
Posture exactly like OH but cuteness factor very different!
Because that would mean 'it is paw' which is incorrect!
I love your shopping trips - either loads of bargains or loads of vileness! I have some rather hidous socks too, I wear them under boots so who cares. I have reading glasses from Costco, one pair is nice and I wouldn't mind who saw them, the other 5 aren't wonderful but enable me to read small print.
It's always worth a view, it's very good
It's been a lovely day, sunny all day, but cold.
Had a good day in the garden, had to stay well wrapped up though.
Got my 3 Fig Trees re-potted into American style Tubs that i built water reservoir into the base.
