From The Northerner:
A reader of the Hexham Courant with an admirable concern for the correct (and incorrect) use of the apostrophe writes a sad letter to the editor:
"A sign outside the Falcon Inn, Prudhoe, in very large letters, proclaims 'Wedding's Partie's Birthday's Engagment's We Do Them All'.
"The notice is 50 yards from a sign saying 'Welcome To Northumberland'. What will visitors think of us?"
That's just delicious, isn't it?

Partie's
??????

That's the most gratuitous apostrophization I've ever seen!
