I was going to say "too soon" but it's probably more like 20 years too late. The auld ones are the best ones, as Flure used to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point of the joke is its double meaning. The apostrophe is correct for one of these meanings, so you can stop fretting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are being too hard on yourself here. That apostrophe is required for the purposes of the joke. It's the apostrophe that makes it a joke. It only works because you can't hear an apostrophe. I could be in danger of over analysing this one a wee bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct it's a verbal joke that doesn't work as well written down. Like the one about the boy who got sacked from the bakery because he was kneading a shite.
