That is !! What idiots - it's one thing to make a common mistake, but quite another to have it printed on loads of t-shirts. Joe Browns do have form though - they used to sell a t-shirt with a hammer and sickle on, plus some "Russian" writing. Except it was actually Greek. Would have loved to have known what it said - I really hope that people who bought it thinking they were celebrating the Revolution were in fact advertising tourist info about the Parthenon.

I did see one on the back of a white van which said... 'I may be fat but your ugly' So I am shouting after it "My ugly WHAT?, No you need to tell me!!"

Surely they are being ironic... if you're going to buy/ wear a t-shirt like that, apostrophes will be the least of your concerns...
