Bugger the work, this is more fun.
skihorse no, I laughed, then cuddled him. Stupid, I should have just laughed, as obv I then smelt of wet dog and was covered in plaster.
at police statement and great to find a fellow apostrophe preferencer. I wasn't keen on using the phrase up-d'd but then realised actually it was perfectly ok as it was missing letters. When I did stupid marriage #1 I rec'd the orders of service the week before and the only bridezilla moment I had was when I realised that there was an erroneous apostrophe. I phoned the printer who argued with me as to whether it was right or not (I, of course, was right) and in the end he said, "you know, you sound just like my daughter when she's not getting her own way" to which I responded, "that's funny, you sound nothing like my Dad who is a professional businessman". He re-printed them.
Imagine my horror, then, when waiting at the entrance to the church for fab wedding #2 when I heard the vicar apologise for getting an fecking apostrophe wrong in the orders of service that he had printed for us! I'd not noticed it (neither had I actually proof read it) but then he'd done such a beautiful job of the printing I decided not to care. And he did a fab service, too .
'Course typing away at speed leads to embarassing typos but WGAS in the end.
