Seen in the Adverts ...

Post by Shelley Hansen » Thu Feb 25, 2016 5:09 pm

Couldn't help myself - just had to post this gem from the Buy-Swap-Sell site for your grammatical frustration!! :lol: :roll:

Brought this not long ago off here but it is to small for my tv. This is actually a coffee table and the draws slide out both sides.

How many mistakes can you spot???

Cheers

I saw this sign beside the road in Canberra early this week: Flower's and Rose's

It made me laugh. Not only are the apostrophes unnecessary, but roses WERE flowers last time I checked!

Good one, Stephen. Yes, like you, I do believe roses are flowers ...

One wonders ... Flower's and Rose's what?? :lol:
