Exhibit A: "photo's"

Am I a sad pedant who needs to get out more?

Well interestingly as someone who "proofs" the newsletter I wavered over this and thought perhaps it was indeed the correct way of writing photos to indicate as Ellbell said the graph bit missing...

Perhaps someone could come back with definitive answer? I did English but that means nowt in terms of grammar (as in they just assumed everyone learnt it at school and therefore left us all to it).

If it is an offence it's at least an honest faux grammatical one, rather than an its it's etc howler, no?

Now that's what I call a proper howler - maybe you should send back with red pen and must try harder
