One for the pedants in York!!
The local council has just repainted all the road surface arrow's and sign's on the way into Monks Cross shopping centre.
It is a shame that whoever was responsible cannot spell as there are at least five instance's, in very large letters of
STORE'S
I kid you not!!
Oh, dear

Just wondering if it's pedantic to point a basic error like that out when it's made in foot high letters on the road!

I work with a load of people who don't know when to appropriately use an apostrophe. We have many instances of "GCSE's."
I get annoyed keep having to say it's a plural!!!

Apparently it's not a grammatical error...
the filter lane is to the Superstore and instead of
STORE'S
it is supposed to say
S'STORE
As the road is not wide enough to write SUPERSTORE.
I am not sure which is worse!!

I have had the misfortune of seeing this grammatical error today.
What were they thinking, or should I say not?
It deludes me as to why they would create such an catastrophe on something so simple. As a York resident I have payed for this to be done. The mind ponders
