Apostrophes

This is a silly pet hate but... APOSTROPHES.

An apostrophe signifies when something belongs to someone or when words have been contracted: do not to don't etc.

If in doubt, don't use an apostrophe. I'd rather not see one at all than see pointless ones.

If you don't know whether something needs an apostrophe or not... do not use words which would need them.

It is just annoying to see signs, facebook statuses, sentences in books/magazines etc, which have stupid apostrophes in them. Just because there's an s or two, doesn't mean you need millions of apostrophes.

Rant over. :-)

This is a blog that I have owed Laura for AAAAGES

Hi Laura!

This is a blog! I do know how to use my fingers, I know how to apply my fingers to the keyboard in order to form words which will form a blog. I know I've been rubbish at keeping up with this!

I've been doing things!

I've been in school completing my placement with Year 2 and doing my first ever display:


Y Gemau Olympaidd Llundain 2012 
The Olympic Games London 2012. 
Oh yes, me and a staple gun had a fun afternoon! I'm very proud. 

I've been making sock things: 


Sock Lion for Vincent's 2nd birthday, sock Tapir for Kyla (she loves Tapirs) and sock monkey for Chloe, with his arms crossed... 

I've been here, there and everywhere visiting family and Paul. 

I went shopping for an outfit for my cousin's wedding and bought a lovely dress at the outlet place near bridgend. I say I bought it, mummy bought it. 

I did a workshop in Bedford which was good, I've got two more workshops booked more locally. I have a craft fair on Saturday... I'm starting my nursery placement on the 23rd. My cousin's wedding is on the 30th of July and Stef's wedding is at the end of August. Lots of things! See!
