	Barbra - Nooooooooooooo - not more men - did you see what they did on pages 44 and 45 - it could even have been page 43 too! Loads of 'missus' jokes - but impossible to find 'mister' jokes - as was admitted - the reason being, men are just - a joke!! :-D :-D

	I concede. Your thread (bully!!) :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P .......and yeessss, it is (no contraction) (babies not due yet) apostrophe. No whys ('y's' ) and wherefores :-D Though - apparently - 'whys' and wherefores' nowadays have the same meaning, so that expression is redundant :-(

	But is the spelling of the mark apostrophe, or apostrophy? If the latter, then the rules relating to plurals would apply, as you quite correctly state. If the former, them my usage is correct.....and as it's (not again!) my Thread, my rules apply :-P :-D :-D :-D :-D
