I was going to bring up St James's road near my work which seemed to go against the answer for the Jesus question but looks like religious terms get a free ticket. I'm sure the grammar checker on my work PC doesn't come up with same changes as some of answers. Reply to this message | Report message

SWMBO seems to know her stuff on these and said some are wrong, or at least ambiguous. Looking forward to Duncan's (maybe Duncans, Duncans' LOL) opinion. Reply to this message | Report message

I guess you went for Harris’ but a name ending in s takes only an apostrophe if the possessive form is not pronounced with an extra s like, for example, Socrates’ philosophy. Last edited by: CGNorwich on Sun 8 Jan 23 at 20:56 Reply to this message | Report message

It's really very good of you to go to all this trouble for me. I am afraid I have only just looked in to the site. 9/10. Fantastic, it said - since you ask. Whilst we are on the subject, what do you feel about the Eton comma? Reply to this message | Report message
