A clear demonstration of the importance of typographical accuracy.

Shirt tales

Along with many other Leeds folk, including Steve S who sent this photo in (thank you), I was really pleased that Leeds Rhinos won the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final at the weekend by beating local rivals Castleford.

Or Castelford, according to the Winners shirts all the team wore at the homecoming at Headingley Carnegie Stadium on Monday.

OK. I guess the shirt printers could be forgiven.

It's another team. Another town. Surely they wouldn't make such an error closer to home, would they?

Er, yes. They would. And did, back in April when they produced this shirt in celebration of Jamie Peacock's 500th career game.

To think that Andrew Carnegie donated vast sums of money trying to improve literacy.

Initial failure

There's an organisation that represents the UK's recorded music industry.

It's known by the initial letters of its original name, the British Phonographic Institute: the BPI.

Only, it's not.

It's known as the BPI (British Recorded Music Industry).

How confusing is that?

According to Greg L, it's a PITA (Poor Attempt At Keeping Things Simple).

X-rated movie

Goodness me. This is going back a bit.

To the year 2000 in fact.

Now that really would be the turn of the century.

On the menu

Thanks to Trev L for this apostrawful menu.

Actually, there is a case for the defence here.

The apostrophe in pud's could represent a missing i so that it reads Giant Yorkshire pud is served with.

Each apostrophe in potato's could represent the missing e.

And the apostrophe in burger's could also represent a missing i so that it reads Suicide burger is well done.

A case. But a tiny case.

In fact, only small potato's.
