MAMAS & LEONIES RESTAURANT

WERE JUST AROUND THE CORNER
----------

Where do you start?!

where have they gone?

The most worrying thing is that looks completely normal to me

Were they?

you know what? i would choose missing apostophes ove incoect apostophes any day

(soy fo lack of 'aaah's)

I'm not so bothered about the apostrophes in the names, as the meaning is clear. But the other changes the meaning, as puppymonkey illustrates!

Maybe it's Yorshire-ish.

"Ey up, were just around t'corner like."

Yorkshire-ish

Were it?

Probably better thinking about this..

Oooh I used to go there in my teens! Nice to hear it's still there - the food used to be good (better than the grammar apparently)

maybe there are lots of Mamas and several Leonies? [hopeful]

and maybe what's missing was a pluralising s not an apostrophe... and a line of text

'Mamas' & 'Leonies' Restaurants
were just around the corner
but have now moved across the road

(Tutter you are making me laugh - in your R-less state you sound like someone at the dentist talking with their mouth wide open)

No, it's definitely one restaurant.

tutter - here, have some of mine, I've got loads spare:

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r

I know, I know - I am playing on the point of 'but why be picky about grammar, you know what they meant'

Tis the point of a pedant to be picky!

lol mrsbadger about dentist. tutter's lack of Rs just demonstrates that you don't need to type accurately to make sense
