The Apprentice 2008

I presume that you mean by Jenny when she proclaimed "I have slowed down enormously on the number of cards that I buy" to the startled buyers. And she didn't even get called back to the boardroom!

Or perhaps you meant Kevin with his "Frow hundred and frirty frow million tons of rubbish"?

 

[Hazzman]

The idea was shit full stop....

 

[FIF]

Such an easy task too.

bunch of nohopers that were chosen over 400million others.

4 hours to decide on a fecking apostrophe sums up the useless bunch of ring-pieces.

So what was the answer to the apostrophe thing? I wouldn't have put an apostrophe in at all, if there is one then surely it is between the e and the s? Jeff will know.....

Singles is plural so the apostrophe goes after the second s.

Singles' day

That is surely the answer, but on the You're Fired programme 3 of the guests still thought it should have been Single's :icon_roll

Maybe they were expecting to only sell one card?

Indeed, but as it is plural there is an arguement that no apostrophe is needed at all.

No, because the day is the singles' day that is to say as it's their day it belongs to them - hence the apostrophe.

 

[MKFox]

both are right.
It could be deemed a compound noun, it's a type of day, hence no apostrophe. A day for singles, not of singles.

 

[FIF]

I'd agree with that

[Melton Fox]

it's a type of day, hence no apostrophe.

It's also a day that belongs to somebody, hence the apostrophe.

As you have already pointed out though, MK, both ways can be deemed correct depending upon which way you read it.

 

[Tamworth Fox]

My money would be on: Claire, that bloke with a ****ed up face, the ginger one and raif (sp).

I'm guessing the winner will be Claire with that bloke with the ****ed up face 2nd.

 

[FIF]

Ian?

He seems a bit too loud and in your face, but I think he could make the last 4. Claire seems to be a devious, nasty bit of two faced stuff, so she will probably stay long. no way can she win it though. The ginger one is a Gob on legs - don't see her lasting too much longer.

Think the Irish bint will make the last 4 with Raef, Ian and Claire.

Sophocles is a wanker isn't he?

 

[Melton Fox]

One if them thinks he's Tim Weswood.
