I was on the road with Mrs S yesterday, in foggy conditions. We were keen not to miss our exit, and were scrutinising the signs more closely than usual.

A sign hove out of the fog, declaring Humber Br'. Excuse me! I bemoaned the parlous state of the apostrophe in written English, and wondered to which authority I should complain, and then I found it ................ The Apostrophe Protection Society.
