Consonant please, Rachel.................

Oh shame - almost a full set of possessive apostrophe's

Poor Mr Wan King! What if he's desperate to go to the loo.

Yes, I'd like to know what a veggie would make of this meal.....................

Bloody rip off - they don't empty it and then charge you for the contents!

It's "Spot the mistakes competition!"

NB This is not the original Woolworths, but a supermarket chain in Australia who've nicked the name.............their are 17 mistakes

Including that one?

Are you counting random capitalisations?

Well spotted, I wondered who would be the first to notice. 😁

Yes. 🙂

I counted:

13 random capitalisations
3 spelling mistakes (challanges, appologise, inconvienence - but the last one's fair enough IMO!)

And then the 17th is your intentional "their" joke!

I suppose 'yogurt' could be considered a mistake as well, but different countries have different rules on whether there's an 'h' in it!

Correct!

Tick - Gold Star, and there's a book token in the post. 😊

But no ganja......

Oh, and................... "I get knocked down, but I get up again (hic)"

I mean, you could argue that there are more: "due to" should be "because of" as it's adverbial; "attention customers" should have a comma, otherwise it's just a dangling noun phrase about people shopping for attention; there's a full stop missing...but in fairness the sign gets all the data across, so it does its job.

Would Zaphod count as one?

Now that one is very silly, I approve.
