Hi Stewmax, I'm not writing in a foreign language, I'm using the language from the land of my fathers and after our glorious win on Sat. I can't even get annoyed with you for suggesting that it's foreign :D

Apostrophe or elision?

Apostrophe showing possession, whilst " it's " has an elision indicating missing letter/s.
