A self-styled ‘grammar vigilante’ has revealed that he has spent years changing offending shop signs in the dead of night.
Wielding an ‘apostrophiser’ – a broom handle laden with two sponges and a number of stickers – the man has corrected tens of missing and misplaced apostrophes on shop banners across Bristol over the past 13 years.
