| 'Very satisfying read if literal cock-ups get your gander.' I think you mean 'literary cock-ups get your gander up.' A literal cock-up is something quite different and there is no such phrase as get your gander. In my view it is poor manners to pick people up on minor mistakes with apostrophes. They may have made the error through haste, it may be that English is not their first language or simply that they didn't benefit from an expensive education. |
