Surely that's apostrophy's - sorry if it ends with a 'y' (as it surely must - 'cos we've been told, so there!) that's apostrophies. :-D

We few, we happy few, we bland of brothers...and, of course, sisters.

Now, who's (note the apostrophe) up for a rumble with the French?

We have until October25th to gird our loins, or even guard our lions!

:-D :-D :-D :-D

Actually the above reminds me of a jolly ditty that I remember from my childhood...idyllic days;

William the Conqueror, 1066,
Said to his Generals,
I mean to affix
England to Normandy,
So go out and borrow,
Some bows and some arrows,
We're starting tomorrow.

A rather cumbersome way of remembering a date :-D

I wish I could remember some other dates that I've been on. Mind you, there have been plenty that I'd rather forget ;-) :-D :-D

I seem to have become obsessed with the use of apostrophes.

I should be up there with Matthew, Mark, Luke and John...the fifth Apostrophe :-D :-D

Vertigo is not a pleasant thing.

Don't forget, when you post on this Thread, you're not talking to yourself :-D

I might not post every day (it just seems like it) but I do check it on a regular basis ;-) :-D :-D

I'm also guilty of that, Bob, otherwise you have little bits of bread sticking out making it difficult to wrap the sandwiches if they are to be eaten off-site :-0

Bobtanian Report 28 Aug 2017 17:28

Y'Know,
is it OCD,?
when making sandwiches...do you match up the slices of bread, according to the shape?
Ive just realised I do it.............all the time!!!!

One day a large cod was swimming around when he saw a squid

"How's it going, squid?", asked the cod

"Not so well!." exclaimed the squid, "I feel awful and I'm just on my way to see the doctor"

"Sorry to hear that," said the cod. "Hop on my back and I'll give you a lift"

This was duly done, but instead of taking the squid to the doctor, the cod delivered the squid to a large shark.

With a shrug of the shoulder the cod dropped the squid off his back and said to the shark.........



....."Here's that sick squid I owe you"

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
