As good as it gets

Great Denmark Street then

Nice to see a bit of grammar accompanying the move.

In moving from 16 Great Denmark Street to 54 Lower Dorset Street, Fay's has picked up an apostrophe.

Great, I said to myself. You can't beat a bit of old fashioned education.

Then I wondered was the change simply an indication of reduced family size.

Still, there should have been an apostrophe somewhere on Great Denmark Street.

Lower Dorset Street now

Vertical Apostrophe


Now there's a man who knows where to put it and not let go of it.

A rare vertical apostrophe, in Hill St, Dublin.

A medal for grammatical accuracy, visual consistency, and sheer bloody mindedness?

And rumour has it that the pint's not bad either.
