    I know a couple people were looking for beats headphones..well tesco have them for £129 and they have an offer for £40 that comes off automatically when added to the basket plus there is a code for £15 of a £75 spend so £74 works out well if its something you want :)
    One cannot change the past, but one can ruin the present by worrying over the future.

    Sarahdol have you tried the range? They are the cheapest non-charity shops I've found for baskets.

    Failing that- you could try a pretty plant holder- like a little metal bucket looking one not a brown plant pot?

    I called about the telly job and have official confirmation that I have it. Way below the accepted rate for what I do but something to be doing whilst I look for further work! :beer:

    And I'm now a signed up volunteer for the Red Cross. Got a bunch of training to do in the New Year before I get cracking but :T

    Well done on the job:T:T:T

    Can someone please help and explain where my answer is incorrect? I believe my answers are right, however it marked me as incorrect?


    Apostrophe? (answers)


    1.I will be 30 in two years’ time.


    2.I will be 29 in one year’s time.




    Explanation

    Expressions of time are also known as ‘temporal expressions’. When used in temporal expressions, the apostrophe is placed before the ‘s’ for single units and after for multiple units.


    Thanks


    Which one did you choose?

    The first one is correct.

    It's as the expantion at the bottom says....

    Apostrophes are used in time expressions such as 2 days' leave.

    When it is one measure of time, the apostrophe goes before the s (e.g., one day's pay). When it is more than one measure of time, it goes afterwards (e.g., two days' pay).

    The normal rules of grammar don't apply when the subject is time. HTH
