Use your skill and judgement (and not a map) to decide which of the 15 station names include a genuine apostrophe. for example: bcehikn |
St James's Park is one because even I occasionall wonder why they don't just follow the rules and spell it St James' Park. |
Is it CFKLMN? |
Earl's Court, King's Cross, Queen's Park, Regent's Park, St James's Park (which is as as it should be), St John's Wood and St Paul's. Is there a prize, or is this just for honour? |
My guess (and it's a guess - I've been good and not looked at the TfL map) would be : A,C,F,H,J,K,M. Or is this another of your "who comments/answers these things anyway?" tests? *grin* |
I guess cfhjklm. |
Er... Qwyghlm? |
CFJKLM And I note the trick question N too - you should have added Barons Court. |
Damn - how did I miss Barons Court? (no apostrophe) And why does Earl's Court have an apostrophe when Barons Court doesn't, eh? |
Correct apostrophes: Earl's Court, King's Cross St Pancras, Queen's Park, Regent's Park, St James's Park, St John's Wood and St Paul's. And Shepherds' Bush should have been Shepherd's Bush. |
Nice little piece on the Earl's Court apostrophe here. Or it's nice if you, like me, worry about these things. |
