Apostrophe's and other things

It's good to s'ee our grammatical custom's from the Olde Countrie s'urvive and thrive over here. S'ome word's have live's and plural's of their own. Current favourite is vehicle's.

The Laundry Mat

On the sign outside the harbour washroom facilitie's, is the offer of a laundry mat. Is this a refinement of the bashing the clothe's on a stone routine, which I tell J is how I wash his clothe's?


Steel Nose

Another sign at the harbour: "Beyond this point hard hat's and steel nose must be worn"
Steel nose???? What have I missed? Are these people descendent's of Tycho Brahe?
