Peter Cook?

Not Susie Dent. Wrong gender, and this is somebody who used to frequent the legendary Coach and Horses in Soho with characters like Jeffrey Bernard and Laurie Lee. A columnist, wit, writer and playwright.

Steve - Susie Dent??

Ali - owe you a coffee!  Just watch out where the huskies go....

PS Lots more lovely goodies at the Deli (can recommend the new meat and veg/gie pie selection) and hoping to re-vamp the wine selection soon - watch this space.  And not an apostrophe in sight.

No prize, but who was the founder and self-appointed life president of the Association for the Abolition of the Aberrant Apostrophe (AAAA), and who claimed to have an apostrophe incinerator in the back garden? No cheating and using Google or the like for this one.

A rare Frank Zappa reference there, Rod

As mudsharks everywhere will know, the crux of the biscuit is - the apostrophe.  And the Deli has some great biscuits too...

PS a coffee on me for the first person to get the reference!

In the town where I grew up (I'm not going to name it) the local baker advertised their Yuletide goodies as Xma's Gateau'x.

How will you ever live this down, Stephen? However, the croissants at the Deli are delicious, however they are spelt (pun very much intended)

Oh no. I blame spell check. Sorry. And me an Oxford Fellow too. I’ll be drummed out.

Achilles’s fodder? Yes.  With ‘s but no croissant’s.

Croissant's:  is this a Baker's Apostrophe?

Are you getting any uptick in trade from the Notting Hillbillies?

Have you tried the croissants in our local community deli? Are they really are the best you’ll find for miles. They come from a very good bakery – More. Do try them. Actually, the Danish  aren’t bad as well. Important, we support our local deli, but with goodies as good as these You’ll not be disappointed. Shame we don’t have the publicity machine of certain other Charlbury establishments, or would be getting a write up for our croissants in The Telegraph!
