Quote from: berneboy on July 16, 2015, 11:47:25 AMQuote from: Lucky Eddie on July 16, 2015, 11:07:26 AM'Would you bet against us'?P.s. Is my question mark in the correct place? I've often wondered. I think not. Mr. Pedant says, "Would you bet against us?" Correct berneboy. Eddie: the question mark is part of the quotation so it goes inside the quotation marks.I used to teach English...back in the day when we taught punctuation and stuff.Don't get me started on the apostrophe!

Many that have been mentioned but this one always makes me smile."We've done em, we've done em." Brian Clough on commentry as the final whistle sounds in Rotterdam.
Not the best one, but always liked:"And Olney! It's astonishing, this!"
